MAN DAY: Pick Up Tips From The Mouths of Babes
Happy Man Day! I was stumbling across the web and I found this interesting tidbit….apparently all men think alike from birth….
Nine-year-old Alex Greven has written a book called “How To Talk to Girls“…and it’s a hit. From the Today Show site:
“Boys, they can’t hold on to girls for a long time,” he told Vieira. “Some boys, they might get the girl to like them at the start of a recess and at the end, the girl dumps them.”
He said boys have to learn to move on when girls dump them.
“Life is hard, move on,” the juvenile love guru said. “You have to get over it. Otherwise everything just crashes down. They’re all depressed. They don’t play. They spend their time locked up in their room. You have to move on.”
Other chapters include “The Facts of Life” (“Life is hard, move on”); “There’s a Girl for Every Boy” (“You are like a magnet and girls are the metal”); “How to Get a Girl’s Attention” (“Most girls don’t like showoffs”); “What to Say to Girls” (“Act calm and don’t be nervous”); and “Success” (“If you do win victory with a girl, don’t cheer in front of her. Go somewhere private, then knock your head off and cheer”).
Avoid high maintenance
He advises boys to pursue “regular girls” instead of pretty girls. “Pretty girls are like cars that need a lot of oil,” he writes, adding that pretty girls are more likely to dump a boy than regular girls.
And this was all learned on the playground. I was slightly taken aback…first from the thought that my soon-to-be nine-year-old is thinking the exact same thing and then from the thought that this must be a completely biological thing…WOW! I intend to purchase the book–just to get inside of my son’s head…LOL!
Keep it strictly stylish!
