Sitting here with my angry drunken pirate friend conversating about the recent discovery I have made…
That a lot of men that I’ve been in contact with over the past few months are overly sensitive/desperate/pathetic. I think this may be more of a problem than I’ve realized. Lately I’ve been getting into extremely bizarre situations where men jump on ANY opportunity to share their feelings with me...and not the normal man feelings of rage/annoyance/”pumped up-ness”...but instead I am faced with the challenge of dealing with men who whine about heartbreak and hurt feelings. Call me insensitive, but aren’t men supposed to be MY shoulder to cry on? What happened to men sitting around with other men, drinking beer, making up man-laws, and having religious discussion about favorite female body parts? Seemingly men now (or at least the ones I’ve been talking to) would rather sit around with women (me) and talk about their feelings of sadness/loneliness/vulnerability. Again, I apologize, but the only time a man should feel “vulnerable” is when standing naked near a tornado, or playing the attacker in a rape prevention/defense class. While naked.
This is not a rant about a single encounter with an overly sensitive pansy...this is almost every “man” I’ve come into contact with lately. Men now are also taking over the bitchy girl fall back moves to try and force someone of the opposite sex (me) to fall for them. A few tell-tale signs you know or are familiar with an OSP (overly sensitive pansy) are the following:
· They will constantly be misconstruing innocent actions or statements made by you, to mean something they obviously do NOT, and then proceed to use them to guilt-trip you into some form of date and/or 2hr long phone conversation.
· They will conveniently forget/misunderstand the frequent reminders/rejection you give them, just to force you to say it again so that they may once more hear your voice.
· After you’ve reminded them of your un-interest in them, they wait 24 hrs. before calling/texting you about their bad day or some over exaggerated tragedy that has befallen them, with the intention of forcing some emotional connection that will hopefully (not) make you (me) feel sorry for them and console them (then date and marry them).
I’m sure there are many more examples of things OSPs do that annoy me (us) but I’m too mad to continue.
Feminists everywhere will attack me for these next few statements, but I’m prepared to deal with the backlash. Here we go…
I know all women like to hear their man call them beautiful, and we like to know that they don’t ONLY see how we look, but also who we are as people…but the word “beautiful” is so overused by OSPs because they think that we (I) want to hear it…
SOMETIMES I JUST WANT TO BE “HOTT” instead of “beautiful”, and “sexy” instead of “such a sweet person”.
I think men should be manly, but have elements to them that need to be slowly uncovered. There is nothing more appealing than a man who is strong and confident, but slowly reveals himself to be compassionate and supportive and in a way sensitive, WHEN THE TIME COMES FOR IT. I date MEN for a reason, they possess the things I cannot always provide for myself…if I wanted to date someone as or MORE sensitive than I am, id date women.
So here is an UNLOVE letter to all the men out there who are not living up to the “man” title they possess.
Dear Overly Sensitive Pansy,
When you call me up crying at two in the morning, it is NOT going to make me love you, but rather, it makes me regret ever giving you my number. Please learn to hold a glass or your wallet like a man and teach your girly hands to NOT be girly…I suggest picking up a hammer or doing some sort of exercise. Grace and poise are for girls, not boys. Telling me that you feel like killing yourself because you can’t be with me makes me SCARED of you, and not feel sorry for you. Self-pity is THE number one most unappealing quality in a man. One last thing…my saying no to you now…means that its will be a NO forever…I’m flattered...but NO.
Sincerely,
Every girl that’s going through this.
