I've always joked around that at times I can be kind of similar to a dude. Yes I love cheesy girls movies and moments and the color pink but sometimes the way I view things would be considered dude-like.
One such example of this occurred the other day. I was at the pool with a couple of girls, catching some rays and gossiping when my guy friend C texted me about something "amazing" that had happened around 4 am the night before. Now I'm kinda obsessed with getting C laid/getting him a girlfriend because he is an amazing guy who totally deserves an amazing girl so I assumed this amazing occurrence had something to do with a girl.
He proceeds to tell me this story about how he has been texting a girl who is the sister of one of his friends (already I knew this story was doomed to have me mock it). At around 4 am it started raining so he asked this girl if she had ever been kissed in the rain. Her obvious answer was no so he told her to be outside her house in 15 minutes. He proceeded to drive to her house and as he got out of his truck she was walking out of her house. He described the next moments as something from a romantic movie where without words they walked towards each other and had an amazing kiss in the rain. They then said good night and that was it.
As I described this moment to the girls I was with they were all ooh and aahs and that's so adorable and inside the only thing that I could think of was Eww. Why would anyone walk outside for their siblings friend in the pouring rain. Now I completely get the whole idea of the cheesy romanticism and I do enjoy it at times but for some reason the circumstances surrounding this incident just weirded me out. So I began to question when would this kind of thing be acceptable in real life? Is it just the people involved and the awkwardness that I think exists in how they know each other or the actual situation? Or is it just my way of looking at it?
Not saying I don't like cheesy things, in fact I tend to love them but this was a little over the top for me. Or maybe the fact that it was his friends little sister, who is starting her freshman year of college in fall. Of course me being my sweetheart self I told him that in no way was he to date her for any longer than the summer cause it was nearly guaranteed that once she gets to college she is going to become a whore. She is going to go out and drink and be super slutty, like most freshman girls seems to be these days.
So if he actually ended up dating or even taking the girl out on a legit date I have no idea, since obviously after all that loving and amazing advice I gave him he decided that I wasn't much better that his brothers when it comes to telling romantic cheesy things, but seriously if you honestly thought I was going to oohh and ahh like every other girl then it's really his own fault considering lets face it I am honestly pretty dude like in most of these things.
