The village called, they want their handicap sticker back...

Either the guys I date are getting dumber or…you know what, I’m not even going to finish that sentence.

A friend of mine keeps telling me that I have to kiss a lot of frogs before I find my prince. But gheezus, I’ve kissed the entire pond, licked a lily pad (ok that sounds just wrong), accidentally made out with a crawdad and wrestled an alligator. My lips are slimy, I’m wet, cold, tired, possibly infected and I just want to go home to my honey already.

Humphffffff. * Proceeds to push out bottom lip and pout *

So I met this guy during Thanksgiving weekend. He is my best friend’s, boyfriend’s childhood friend (if that makes any sense). We met and hit it off that night enjoying each other’s company. I gave him my number, but later discovered that he lived two hours away. He recently moved closer to home, but still not close enough for us to actually go out on a date. So we basically pillow talk and that’s about it.

Here is the 411 on this guy: He’s ridiculously good-looking, (half black, half Sicilian) tall, nice, fun to hang out with (we’ve actually only hung out twice). Here is the catch: He recently broke it off with his fiancé, leaving her and their house, moved back in with his parents to “get back on his feet” (which is the reason he moved closer to me). He also around the same time got a DUI and has no cell phone. Did I mention he’s a nice guy? I know, I know a sh*t load of red flags went up a long time ago, but I think I was bent over kissing a frog when they started flashing.

Anyway, one can only imagine my surprise yesterday when he called me to tell me his car, which he isn’t even supposed to be driving, got towed and he needs $230 to get it back. Um, let me rephrase that, he was wondering if I had $230 to “loan” him so he could get his car back. I’m sorry, the last time we kicked it did I have ATM stamped on my forehead? No, I didn’t.

WTF??? Why did he ask me? Things would be different if he was my man. Things might have even been different if we had, oh I don’t know, at some point in time broke bread together.

Oh and that’s not even the best part. Does anyone want to know why his car got towed? This fool went and parked in a handicap spot. *pause for dramatic affect* He made it way too easy for me to make a remedial joke on his behalf. I think he might just need one of those handicap stickers to put on his car.

Please tell me it gets better. Somebody. Anybody? See why I was contemplating lesbianism? Nupe you might just get your wish sooner than expected…

I know that I shouldn't laugh...but I did!!! Damn! He might be a nice guy but he seems to have some bad luck around him. No sense in letting him bring that luck around you! LMAO. You may want to politely tell him to kick rocks.

Lesbianism?? Say it aint sooooooooo.

Suite B said...

He sounds real SPECIAL...he won't be able to get his car out anyway if his license isn't valid so by the times he gets everything right I'm sure the bill will be worth more than the car.

James Tubman said...

Tyhitia Green said...

It gets soooo much better, Ms. P. You'll find your prince.

I found mine a few years ago and he's wonderful. Stop looking so hard, and that's when he'll come to you. :*)

So@24 said...

Crawdads are motherfuckers. Never satisfied. I bet he tried to feel up your nannybits too eh?

Skoolboi Krush said...

Even with the recent breakup, living at home, car-less, and no cell phone, the biggest red flag is this fool asked you for money. He's not paying rent, car note or cell phone bill and he doesn't have cash? WTH!

Bella said...

Um, did you say NO cell phone? WTF?

A disgrace to the rest of us Sicilians...

You need a new sport!

Bella

who? said...

shame... homie is a big loser... shame... if it was me, I'd have come a lot smoother than that and you might have even split the bill with me... but everybody isn't the Adonis, I guess... Loser

Kim & Dic said...

omg that guy is a loser...you cant ask for a loan unless you are married..i.e. prego

Solitaire said...

Your post sounds funny even though your frustration is real. Maybe you are looking the wrong pond.

maverick said...

But gheezus, I’ve kissed the entire pond

gues u need to discover newer and bigger ponds which can accomodate different types of frogs :D

Anonymous said...

This is funny to me. This stuff just doesn't happen to dudes who got they stuff together. I don't know "when" you told him to kick rocks.....but I'm sure you did. Damn the nice got mess. Nice and stupid still live in the same body. Apparently.

Anonymous said...

You dodged a bullet not getting mixed up with this clown.

Muze said...

wow. i'm with skoolboi...why does his ass not have any money?? did he leave his JOB when he moved? or did he never have one?

...and wonder why his butt lost a fiance.

wow msP. if things don't work out with bf, i've already told him i'm getting a girlfriend. lol. less drama.

and more hair products to share. LOL.

Don said...

He probably was testing you. Trying to see if you would give him the money, so he could always come back and ask you for money. That could be the deal. He was bold to ask for that much, so soon. lol.

Prunella Jones said...

I might swap body fluids with a guy but I damn sure won't loan him money! Hope your luck gets better.

MsFreshBananaPuddin said...

so@24- YES! He did, perverted crawdads are the worse…

skoolboi- that’s what I’m sayin! He’s at work everyday. He told me his bank account was pending, but he should have more than $200…

bella- yes NO CELL PHONE! I’ve been calling his parents house like I’m in high school…

canon- exactly, depend on how you come at me if I’m a lend you money…L

nyc chick- preggo = benefits

solitare- I’ma quit looking. Period.

maverick- accommodate different frogs lol you mean like dumb asses?

brad- oh know I’m laughing, but wow. I wish people would stop telling me to date nice guys, because this is what happens. And then I’m too nice to tell them to f*ck off…!

mister u- yeah I guess it was better to deal with this early on…

muze- I don’t know! He goes to work everyday! He doesn’t have a phone bill or pay rent! * sigh * beats me…well let me know, I’ll take you to dinner j/p lol

don- yeah after I thought about it I was like I think this fool was just testing me, to see what I would say. Why do guys do that? Are there not enough trustworthy females out there? Damn.

MsFreshBananaPuddin said...

prune juice- hmmm…maybe I should start having sex FOR money…

Afrodite said...

Lmao @ wrestling with an alligator.

Yeah, believe it or not I've given thought to lesbianism but I won't go to the dark side, I love men too much.

Oh and that dud right there...is triflin'!

Slaus of O Hell Nawl said...

revelations 16:13 "Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. They are spirits of demons performing miraculous signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty." i tell you girl, it's a frog-only zone over here, too. the end of the world must be closer than it appears.
