My Fair Lady

Recently I was introduced to WL, a not-so-young-anymore lady from a gym. She is quite a character, and I was told that she had NEVER dated in her entire life….which could also possibly means she could be a virgin…in so many ways….I was thinking “seriously? Not dated EVER?” How is that even possible…till I met her!

There are reasons why men are attracted to women (or certain things that women do which will definitely turn men off!). As for WL, think she broke every rule there is in “what not to do to turn men off”. For example:

1. Men like women who smells nice…..WL is exactly the opposite! I had told a mutual friend of ours to tell WL about her BO…for her own bloody sake and also ours! (mental note to self: stay away during her menstruation period!)

2. Men (apparently) are attracted to how a woman walks…hmmm…WL does not walk, instead she trots. (OK, WN and I are fixing that for her!)

3. Confidence and EQ ….another key components that men are attracted to. Don’t get me wrong but WL is a very confident woman who has made it for herself (psstt: she owns a bloody Mercedes S class and a successful engineer!) not to mention an attitude of “My way or the highway”. Then again, that sort of confidence could spell trouble as she can be very commanding and demanding. NOT.GOOD! This kind of aggressive confidence normally does translate to rather lower-than-normal EQ……enough said…

4. OK, nothing can be more disgusting that seeing some form of “5 o’clock shadow” just under the armpits! (hmmm….and I wonder if this problem could have led to problem No 1 above….wonder?)

5. Naggers!!!! Men despise that, right? Well, need I say more…..?

Despite it all, I still like WL for who she is. WN and I just need to work through some grooming issues for WL, and fingers crossed, hopefully she will meet a great man because I am a firm believer that we are all made for someone out there……

Oh ! that is so embarassing!

Embarassing moments? Haven’t we all gone through some?

Well, I had my fair share of embarrassing moments too, and is fun to just look back and have a good laugh at myself (although it was embarrassing when it happened):

1. I had tried taking money from ATM with my gym membership card (hmmm…sounds familiar?)

2. Made a call to a different Jacqueline (reminder to self: please edit Jacqueline’s name on mobile and save it differently), and spoke for a good 1 minute before realizing it was not the Jacqueline I had meant to call (and I was wondering why she had no idea what I was talking about)

3. Left one early morning to buy coffee in my boxer shorts….and was completely oblivious till I had GOT HOME!

4. For some strange reasons, attempted to give my favourite juice store my gym membership card whilst collecting my juice drink. (you don’t want to know her look ……by the way, she is gay and she probably thought I was trying to hit on her by giving her a free gym membership!)

5. This is probably one of those moments every woman will connect with….have you ever packed your bags for gym and totally forgot one of the other undergarments (or both in my case!)……need I say more?

Take some time peeps, look back and enjoy your funny (or embarrassing) moments…depending on how you choose to see them!

p/s: please feel free to drop me a line or two of your funny (or embarrassing moments) too…laughter is to be shared!
