He's Just Not Into You

Last weekend when I was in the supermarket, I heard this little girl complaining to her mum.

Little girl : “Mummy, that boy pushed me!”

Mum : “Oh darling, that’s because he likes you.”

And with those two lines your dating life turned to crap. Don’t you love it? Parents in their bid to keep us safe and feel accepted, created the nation that if someone teases you or pushes you it means they like you. No seriously, what are we, dumb arse? Generations for years have subscribed to this nation and pursued guys that are just outright jerks and simply not interested in them in the first place.

I watch the dvd, “He’s Just Not Into You” at the same week as Valentine’s Day and highlights this misconceived nation of hurt means like. Oh, and by the way, if your partner took you to see this movie, ok well, you work it out!

The film star’s Drew Barrymore, Ben Affleck, Jenifer Anniston and several other well known actors that delve into the mystery of dating in an attempt to demystify it. And demystify it does, it turns out that there really is no mystery to dating at all. So, to show you the path young gay Luke Skywalker I’ve pulled out some of the best tips from the movie, it goes something like this……

If your prospective love interest isn’t:

- Calling you

- Texting you

- Emailing you

- Trying to have sex with you

He’s simply just not that into you

On the other hand, if he’s

- Screwing around behind your back

- Not asking you out on dates

- Introducing you to his friends as his friend

- Responding to your messages days, even weeks after you’ve sent them

He’s “especially” not that into you.


Who would have ever thought that is was that simple. Save yourself a whole bunch of time and heartache right now by deleting men’s numbers that have/or do exhibit any of the above behavior. That’s it, pull it out. Not your penis, you phone! Delete their numbers this instant.

They’re not going to call you anyway. Quit stalking them on facebook, mySpace and YouTube and get on with your life. It’s a big pond. Go dangle your penis in it (ops! your hock!) and see what you catch (hopefully not crabs!)

Oh, and go out and see this movie. Dating really isn’t as complicated as we make it………………

Till then...
