I forgot about the sanity bringing awesome-ness that guy friends bring when putting guy-related issues into perspective. Other pros of having guy friends is that they always are in the know of all things entertaining, will burn you when necessary and they will tell you what you need to hear, not always exactly what you want to hear.
Don’t get me wrong, i love my gaggle of girls, but sometimes we just need to stop analyzing the situation and just take things for exactly what they were meant simply for in the first place.
Epiphany occurred for me today from something acutely understood by all guys. By being completely forward and honest i have learned to be bold. Maybe not in person, yet, but over BBM. I put myself out there and said exactly what i wanted. No figures of speech, no innuendo, no metaphors, sayings, lines or no reading between the lines. Just straight up language, and i believe the recipient will have the words i said burning into the back of there mind until i see that person again.
Now we just have to see if it worked, or if i have made it more awkward. That’s the problem with BBM, you have to wait and see instead of having the immediate reaction when having a face to face conversation.
Thanks for pushing me into it, guy friend, because what was accomplished in half a day would have taken me like 2 weeks. Awesome
