this movie single-handedly killed any chance i’ll ever have of fighting hopeless romanticism.
taking lives. don’t mind me…
sidittymisses posts a quick "how to keep a guy in 10 ways" refresher course.
when i saw this on twitter, i was prepared to roll my eyes and prepare my counter-argument. upon reading, i found it not only simple and insightful, but found myself co-signing due to my recent and past experiences.
there may not be “10 easy ways” to keep anyone or any thing in your life, but there are a few welcomed (and for some, un-welcomed) reminders what a some men need and the sometimes obscure but complementary differences between genders. that old saying “the more you know, the more you grow.” is especially true in relationships.
power to the penis people or at least the power of open dialogue.

| Bertie: | Meet the very gifted and the financially creative Stella. |
| Her: | SHIT. I need to get like her. I'm trying to get someone to introduce me like THAT someday... |
| Stella: | I'm a 30-year-old accountant married to a homosexual lawyer. I'm a beard without kids, Bertie. |
| Her: | ...Okay, without all of that though. Damn. |
| Him: | Word. She's a beard without kids. That sucks. |
| Her: | Basically. She's a mustache. |
| Her: | You know how we were talking about how long it takes to get around in LA? Well, last night, the guy that created twitter tweeted that... |

| Him: | (crazy look) |
| Her: | ...Yeah. Nevermind. I already sound like a douche. |
| Him: | The Census commercials have gotten kinda fancy, no? |
|---|---|
| Her: | Yeah, they definitely hired a new advertising agency. Too bad the Census goes against 3 major things we've been told since early childhood... |
| Him: | What's that? |
| Her: | 1. Don't tell all your business. 2. Don't open the door for people asking about your business. 3. Don't answer questions from the government about your business. |
| Him: | Damn. Hell yeah. |
| Her: | (excited) Hey, look. This version of Word has watermarks. |
|---|---|
| Him: | Only you could be so impressed with something as trivial as Microsoft Word. |
| Her: | Trivial? Are you serious? Microsoft Word is... the backbone of America! |
| Him: | I bet you really believe that too. |
