He Said/She Said: Sex With an Ex

ex-sex.jpgYou know it’s wrong, but when you see your ex across the room for the first time since the big breakup/clothing exchange, rollin’ around in the sheets seems like the best idea in the world. You convince yourself that it will be fun, just this once, and that you both know what the deal is so there is nothing to lose.

But there is. And even the dudes agree.

If you are considering Ex Sex, read on. No one - male or female - thinks it’s a smart move. And trust us; we too thought it was brilliant at one point, but we learned our lesson and you should learn from it too.

He Said:
When you first break up, hooking up with your ex seems like the best thing possible, a naughty glimmer of hope in a dark sea of suckitude. What was your stupid girlfriend suddenly blooms into a beacon of sexiness. She dresses better, smiles more, never grills you about hanging out with your boys, doesn’t complain about what you’re wearing–even her boobs look bigger! It’s like breaking up was exactly what your mutual sex life—and your relationship–needed.

But it’s a trap.

A number of outcomes are likely. First, if it lasts more than a couple of hot nights, you soon fall back into the same, frustrating routines. Instead of just hooking up, you’re going to dinner with her grandma and shopping for crap you don’t care about. The arguing starts, and she’s once again lost that certain something. Basically, you’re back together-whether you admit it or not–and it sucks just as much as it did in the first place. Read More »

He Said/She Said: He Took The Number and Never Called

hotspot-6.jpgMy friend met a great guy last weekend. They hung out at the bar and when it closed he walked her home. When they arrived at her place, they sat on her stoop and talked, flirted, laughed.

It wasn’t until the sun started coming up (and she realized she had to be at her internship in the AM), that they realized how long they had been out there. He took her number, gave her a kiss and went on his merry way. She was excited…until a week went by with no word from him.

She couldn’t understand what happened. I couldn’t help her, either. So, I turned to experts in the field of douchey boys: my guy friends. They have helped before - I was sure they could explain the situation this time, too.

He Said:
When a guy asks a girl for her number and never calls back, a few things might be happening. First, he might have been involved in a fatal beer bong accident, and be buried six-feet under by the time the obligatory three days have passed. But that’s unlikely.

Another, more likely, option is that after he sobered up, he realized that the girl was actually some type of human-beast hybrid and his buddies asked him WTF he was thinking, pretty much eliminating any chance of getting in touch. Or he just forgot he’d gotten the girl’s number altogether until it was too late. Drinking might be a good social lubricant, but it’s not the best ingredient for long-term planning. Read More »

He Said/She Said: The Three-Day Rule

phone.jpgAnother week, another issue to dissect. This week we ask our resident male what he thinks of the infamous Three-Day Rule. Do guys really follow it? Do they really believe it? Should we all put our phones/laptops away for 72 hours until it is “safe” to contact our love interest? Or, just like all rules, is this one meant to be broken?

He Said:
Hmmm. The three-day rule is an interesting phenomenon, and while, like most of these ‘rules,’ I don’t think one needs to hold to it exactly, it does make sense. Basically what you want to do is send a message that you aren’t a completely desperate freak or some over-obsessed ‘I made a doll with your hair’ stalker. This goes for both men and women. Calling right after a date, while direct, says more then just ‘lets get together!’ It says ‘I have nothing to do, ever!’ And that is a warning sign.

One thing that isn’t often mentioned about what we look for in gals is if they have friends and a solid base of activities and hobbies. The last thing we want (assuming we are well-adjusted) is some girl who constantly calls us with updates on her location, what she had for lunch, and what flavor toothpaste she’s considering. We want someone who can go out on a date, have a good time, and then maybe the next day hang out with her friends, or spend some time with their mom, or even just read a book by herself. As someone who values solitude, a girl who likes time alone is very attractive, because it means I will also get time alone. Read More »

Making Contact

img_3311.JPG

After spending the last few months speaking at universities throughout the Northeast, there’s one question that keeps coming up. (No, it’s not ‘who farted?’ but that is funny.)

‘What’s the best way to approach women at school?’
Fret not, young ones. This month, I’m going to show you how to get some love in three different, everyday, mundane areas on campus. And, unlike alcoholism, you can solve this in just five steps!

Five Steps to First Base

1.Find her when she’s alone. It’s not as creepy as it sounds. You stand a greater chance of talking with her when she’s by herself than when she’s with her friends. She’ll be more receptive to your wily charms.

2.Observe something about her.
What is she doing? What is she wearing? What is she eating? What’s she reading? Does she have the same cell phone as you? Is that a knife? Remember, observations lead to conversations. Read More »

Clay Aiken: BabyDaddy

clay-aiken-pregnant-1.jpg

Anyone can have a baby these days and that includes a still-not-out-of-the-closet American Idol star, too. That’s right. In case you haven’t heard, pop star, Clay Aiken, is going to be a babydaddy.

But who? How? What?

Yeah. We were wondering the same thing, so here’s the scoop:

Clay has got this record producer/best friend named Jaymes Foster. She is 50 years old and sister to legendary music producer David Foster. They’re tight. In fact, he even happens to live at her house in Los Angeles when he’s in town. Foster has produced a few of Clay’s cds and now she will be producing a child for him too…to be released in August. She’s divorced and she doesn’t have any kids. So why not raise one with Clay? Yep. Even though she was artificially inseminated with Clay’s seed, he will still have a very active hand in raising this child.

Clay has previously stated that he’s just not interested in relationships and things of the sort, so of course his pending fatherhood does come as a surprise. But are we reallllly surprised? If you ask me, Clay artificially inseminated a 50 year old woman actually makes perfect sense.

The question everyone should really be asking is… since Clay and Jaymes’ love child will be the nephew of David Foster, who happens to be Brody Jenner from The Hills, stepfather… Could this in someway make Gayken, Brody’s Uncle??? Hmmm.

STD E-Cards are Great…Unless You’re Receiving One, Which is Totally NOT COOL

STD ecard

Congratulations! You have an STD! (Nope. That’s not funny at all.)

What better way to celebrate the most unfortunate of problems than by sending an STD E-Card to your past girlfriends and/or flings commemorating the event?

inSPOT, the website responsible for the STD E-Cards, seem to be pitching them as an alternative method for introverted, emo kids who would rather not go through the trouble of actually talking to their past hookups face to face. Oopsy Daisy indeed.

If this “trend” catches on, it just proves how severely f***ed up our generation is.

As for me, I have hope for our generation: with the right spin, expect these STD E-Cards to be sent to every Tom, Dick and Jane with an email address. We are sick, cynical bastards who take nothing seriously, just like our parents always tell us. Congrats to us!

Until there’s a better way to relay the bad news to your ex-flames (outside of telling them in person or over the phone or by email or any other way more respectable than a f**king E-Card), I guess they will have to do, right? These digital disease warnings are a healthy reminder on why girls shouldn’t hook up with you in the first place, you selfish, shamless, careless piece of sh*t.

Single and Lonely on V-Day? Send Morrissey Cards to Those You Love… or Loathe

Morrissey

Although I find myself resisting at times, it’s hard to truly knock The Smiths. Morrissey, the saddest sack of the 80s (take that, I’m Your Man-era Leonard Cohen!) has influenced the lion’s share of emo Cub Scouts that sing sob stories today. But why listen to the shrill, pompous vocals of Bright Eyes when Moz can give you a metric-ton of sadness in just one verse?

The folks at Viva Moz must’ve wondered the same thing, thus creating a line of Morrissey Valentine’s Day cards. That’s right: the Pope of Mope, not exactly known for being optimistic, has cards bearing his choice verses to be sent on the most romantic of holidays. Read More »
