MUST HATE STRIPPERS

I finally made the announcement to the world a few months ago that my (now ex) fiancé and I called the wedding off.   It’s SO FUNNY to me when people first find out we broke up.  They’ll say “How’s the wedding planning going?!” and when I say “We broke up” everyone stands frozen as if they’re waiting on me to burst into tears.  I have to assure them I am 110% okay with the split and my only regret is not calling it off WAY sooner.  

Since the break, I made a somewhat comical list of the things my future hubs must be with a preferences addendum at the bottom of the page.  I got pretty detailed because now I know EXACTLY what I CANNOT deal with and EXACTLY what I was missing.  Some of these things include:

1.) MUST HATE STRIPPERS – To many this sounds like a given.  Who WANTS to marry someone who LOVES strippers?!  Well friends, T-Pain is not the only man on the block with a sick obsession with these creatures of the night.  I’ve known many a men who would spend every day at the strip club (and most days they did).  I’ve known guys who skip class, call out of work and make up every excuse they can think of to go to the strip club (“The breakfast is so good!”)   The occasional trip is fine with me, but overall, my panties should be the only thing something is getting stuffed in – ya dig????

2.)    MUST LIKE COUNTRY MUSIC – Now this sounds a tad redneck so let me explain.  I in no way am a bull riding, cigarette smoking, cowboy boots wearing country girl who has to be listening to Hank every day.  What I REALLY mean by this is that you can’t be close-minded.  You have to be laid back enough to enjoy all types of music.  When on a road trip with me chances are you’re going to hear a little bit of everything so be prepared to belt out some Aerosmith, nod your head to old school hip hop, rap along to Jay-Z, and tap your knee to a little Zac Brown Band.  If you are one of those guys who ONLY listen to classic rock all day and REFUSE to ever change the channel – chances are you’re not going to be too easy to get along with, and that’s an AUTOMATIC list violation.     

3.)    G2 LOVE A FIESTY GIRL – Bless all of my friend’s hearts for loving me so much because Lord only knows I can be a bit on the sassy side!  I am SUPER competitive, I rant about things (hence this blog) and will knock a bitch out if the time is necessary.  Whoever signs up to be with me has to know what they’re in for.  They have to be able to laugh at my ridiculousness and think my rage is comical and not annoying.  My friends love me for my firecracker ways and I expect my future man to love me the same way.  I can’t cool the temperature in this hot head of mine all the time, but having someone who loves my feisty attitude will do the trick in keeping it under wraps.

MANY other things made this list (a total of about 20 things actually lol) but the above 3 are some of the highlights.  I’ve always been very ANTI list because everyone knows the list goes out the window when the right person comes along.  But, we all have our non-negotiables and I think knowing what those are IS VERY IMPORTANT in being in a happy, healthy, successful relationship.  I challenge the other ladies of the blog to post some of their non-negotiables too.  Especially the random ones like MUST HATE STIPPERS!  Interested in playing along, girls?!!
