Bonjour!


Hello fellow followers—sorry I have been on a hiatus for quite sometime, but I’m back and ready to dish about the online dating world.

There has been so much that has happened since my last post, and I guess there’s no better place to start than at the beginning.

So, I reinstated my online dating profile recently and have had quite the adventure…there’s still hope, and I think it’s just an issue of persistence.  My first encounter involved an experienced player.  I’ll call him Mr. Bonjour (there is a funny background to this)—Mr. Bonjour gains his name from a series of rather hilarious text/email conversations, where he would always say bonjour, instead of hello—and chao bella for goodbye; yes, I’ll be the first to admit that this was sweet, but then I was slightly concerned for his own sanity…

He was unnecessarily cheesy—sometimes it’s just too much.  My mistake with Mr. Bonjour was the fact that I was chasing him, and he was eating it up—however, when I changed my attitude towards him and didn’t bother anymore, his also shifted—and just like that, no more cheesy, mushy talk.  I do believe that there are men that inhabit this great earth that are not completely egotistical—finding one seems to be another story.  I gave him the glory he was looking for, and that was my fault for thinking he was that worthy.

Honestly, all a girl wants is to be the center of a guys universe, I think we as females can be a little egotistical that way.  We want to know without a shadow of a doubt that you’re into us—this is shown not so much through words but actions.  Is the guy initiating, or you?

I guess my point comes down to this: even though I was not into Mr. Bonjour, I gave him the wrong impression that I was by not following the rules.  I ultimately gave him what he wanted, which was validation that he is a god among mere mortals.  So, learn from my mistakes, yes it’s also important to make your own, but know that you need a guy that is going to make you his number one priority, not himself.  Don’t initiate, and let him do the chasing, if he’s interested in you, he’ll do whatever to show you that. 

Keep in mind that showing is often more important than telling. -Regan
