- How to make a girl happy 101 -

I've decided on this topic for my post. I can't believe I remembered it so I'm really excited. But this could be the post that could ultimately confirm singledom for the rest of my life. Unless Mr.$$$ comes along..

As you can see dollar signs and a male is involved. Put together, my topic is about money and BOIZ.

After many discussions and thought about this, I have come to the conclusion that women these days are superficial and materialistic. Period. Most girls love to buy stuff, love to receive gifts and LOVEE to be pampered. It's not a curse, it's a wonderful thing!!

It's so nice to have some money in your wallet to spend of some shoes, dresses and accessories, but sometimes, it's much better to NOT be holding the wallet.

Ok, I try to be subtly heading toward my actual topic but it's not working. All that is going through my head is BOYFRIEND AND MONEY.

What do girls look for in a guy? Superficially speaking, a goodlooking witty guy who knows how to look after his girl. That is, knows how to trigger the smile button on her face. So by saying so, sometimes that doesn't require taking out the wallet. But let me tell you something boys. There are some fundamentals to using the wallet. That is, when the wallet MUST come out.

Food. Any meal. A meal with friends, a candlelit dinner, a quick bite. THE WALLET MUST COME OUT DIRECTLY AFTER THE MEAL. I mean, the worst thing to see is the guy to be lurking around pretending not to notice that it is time to get up and pay the god damn bill. When it's a group thing, the guys should all rush up and pay so the girls can look all sweet and innocent and give "thanks" to the guys. :)) The boyfriend should not be hesitating to pay. If by chance you have a wonderful girlfriend who understands that you ALWAYS pay for everything, she will also take out her wallet to pay for the food. But even then should you decline her. NEVER, and I say NEVERR!!!! should the bill be split between a couple. ABSOLUTE NOOOOOOOOO. I can't emphasise that enough.

Clothes and material stuff. The boyfriend goes shopping with the girl, why? LOL. You are dragged there 'cos you are the BOYFRIEND. That's what you do. I think this isn't as necessary but, it is the sweetest thing if you offer to pay for the item. It is not cool to be standing outside the shop and wait for your girlfriend. I thought this was disgusting when I saw a whole bunch of guys lined up outside the shops in MidValley shopping mall in K.L last year. I was wondering, hrms, so. many. guys. LOL. Then I realised: they're girlfriends were all INSIDE the shop!! WOW, what losers! Grr. So yeah, I know sometimes we can really splurge, so it's ok if you don't pay for the dress that cost us the odd $100+.

Miscellaneous. This would be everything else. Like movie tickets, photos, misc tickets. If you get the gist, then these things are also a TAKE-OUT-THE-WALLET things. They won't kill you. PAY FOR IT. But other miscellaneous like flowers, gifts. I don't think they're a must buy. But it wouldn't hurt to buy a flower EVERY NOW AND THEN.

But if you want IMPRESS HER .. like REALLLLLLLY IMPRESS HER socks off ( or pants off >.<), then you would buy her 99 ROSES, tell her how special she is and that your love for her is expressed through the 99 roses ... AND that SHE is your one and only rose to make the 100. Or something corny and mushy like that (stolen from Flh's Calvin). If you know how, corniness can be pulled off.

I know this is really superficial.. but it's kind of true that guys should pay most of the time. It's like a wise woman once said: if you don't have a bit of money, then don't get a girlfriend. If you're not prepared for the financial side of a girlfriend, then you are not fully equipped.

There's a tip for you boys. Alternatively, there is the hope that you can find a girl that will be happy to pay for EVERYTHING. umm. Good Luck.
