Then and Now

Then and Now
Ways in which I handled being single and dating 10 years ago as opposed to now:

Then:
Would "make a round" after first walking into the bar to check out which guys I would be flirting with.
Now:
Take turns "buying rounds" for my single gals at the bar.

Then:
Would give out my number to randoms.
Now:
I don't even give my real name to randoms.

Then:
Loved the stripe shirt look.
Now:
Love the excessive tattoo look.

Then:
Spent most of my time at the Boat Quay bars.
Now:
I can be seen maybe twice a month at either Timbre or Wala Wala or whichever bar that is featuring my favorite live band.


Then:
I drank Long Island Tea like water.
Now:
3 Heinekens and water for the rest of the night if I'm driving. 6 Heinekens and water for the rest of the night if I'm not.

Then:
Grinding was foreplay.
Now:
You need to ear f*ck me with your intellect before you even get a phone number.

Then:
Dating a guy with a roommate or two was the norm.
Now:
The only acceptable roommate is a pet.

Then:
If we hung out at least 5 times at the bars, you were vouched.
Now:
I'm about 2 episodes of CSI away from investing in criminal background checks and a DNA swab.

Then:
Full time student would qualify as employment.
Now:
Oooh baby, tell mama all about that sexy career plan and full medical and dentall coverage...you know a full time job with a benefit plan gets me hot.

Then:
OMG, like, lets spend every day together! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Now:
What do you mean you can't wait to see me, didn't we just had dinner 4 days ago? Plus, I have laundry to do and there's a new episode of "Grey's Anatomy" on tonight.

Then:
Girls don't poop, pee, belch, or eat heavy meals.
Now:
Dude, did you hear that? That went on for almost a minute!

Then:
I hope someone at least hits on me tonight!
Now:
Stop bothering me, I'm discussing the Internet with my girlfriends.

Then:
Well, he's not that interesting/cute/emotionally stable, but dinner sounds lovely.
Now:
Do I really want to put on mascara for this man?
