respect is love in plain clothes

alright. it's time for a post aaalllll aboouut...!

waiiitt for it...

BOYS!!! ehhh!!! yayy!

but don't get too excited, it's not going to be that crazy.

just honest. 

over my many years of dating i've been realizing a few things that i love, and a few things i wouldn't mind lightening on fire and completely disintegrating. 

i've also heard some great stories that support my thinking that each and every girl should see some type of red flag whenever this happens.

this might be a little out there, but to be honest i don't really care

guys who completely maul a girl within days or even weeks of first meeting them are the most unattractive beings. 

did any of you ever watch disney movies? the only things they worried about in those times was even getting a kiss! not where to corner the poor girl whenever you two get alone.

now i don't know where you went to school, but where i'm from that considered sexual assault.  

there was a scripture they showed us (yes this is happening. i'm whipping out a scripture) back in the day at good ol' EFY that they reffered to dating.

1 Nephi 17:48 

Nephi is commanded to build a ship, so he builds it and him and his brothers float off to sea. at one point his brothers get angry AKA jealous with Nephi because he's so awesome (typical) and they're about to throw him into the ocean when he says to them;

"In the name of the Almighty God, I command you that ye touch me not, for I am filled with the power of God, even unto the consuming of my flesh; and whoso shall lay his hands upon me shall wither even as a dried reed; and he shall be as naught before the power of God, for God shall smite him."

now i know you're thinking "what the heck does this have to do with dating?"

 well, at EFY you know they lay the law down about dating.

they shared this scripture for us to think about whenever we were in a situation similar to the one i've already described.  

and you better believe that this ginger memorized this, and i would recite to my best friends parents thinking how i was soo funny and clever for memorizing such a thing.

but honestly. do you guys have idea who you're messing with?

in any minute i could have you "withered away even as a dried reed".

ya'll need to know that no girl wants you to mount her the very first time you meet her.

and if she wants you to, she probably doesn't have a brain. 

and let's go back to the disney movie ideas. every girl has that idea of a disney happily ever after branded into their minds.

every girl wants that prince charming to sweep her off her feet, treat her like a princess, and be incredibly nervous and anxious to give her that f i r s t k i s s .

so word to the wise, if you ever really truly want someone... dont be like Nephi's brothers..

if you know whats good, you bes be her prince charming.
