The Girls of Today

ROB'S RANT


Hey, everyone!  Sorry I haven't been around in awhile. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy kwanzaa, whatever...I've actually been busy, thank God, with work and other events that will soon be revealed.  Okay, I've been working with an amazing company and group of guys/girls over at Kindle Creative - check them out - www.kindle-creative.com.  I signed on as a Creative Consultant with them, and we are pitching my shows right now.  I finally met a group of people who get me.  That means a lot, actually, the most.

One is about a very lovely, sexy, and intelligent woman, Sara Valentine, @SVandME.  Another is about good friends of mine, The Carlson Twins, who are two of the nicest, most talented guys you will ever meet.


The third is about one of my best friends and mentor, Harvey Goldstein, a world wide renown psychologist who is about to change the face of reality TV.



The fourth is about my good friend and amazingly gifted Make-Up artist and stylist, Jenny Karl @JennyKarlMakeup.  She is going to take us to places we've never been and help out struggling brides to become what they've always wanted to be.  Stay tuned.



I just finished up working as the Casting Producer for MLB Networks the 2012 Fan Cave -@MLBFanCave for VPE Talent - one of the best group of people I've ever worked for, as well @vpetalent.  I also just helped my cousin option his film "The Confession of Beacon Hill Bowie" to Alessi Films and Paul Alessi @pauljalessi who are looking forward to producing it sometime this summer.  So excitement is an understatement, to say the least.  Okay, now, let me get to my rant...

I am not trying to be conceited or arrogant or a douche who puts himself on a pedestal, but I think I am a pretty good catch - good looking enough, talented, motivated, funny, enthusiastic, a good job (sometimes), but finding a date these days, or finding a date with a good girl who gets me, has been a fucking struggle.  Now I could go on dates and have a girl on my arm who I don't really like, but that has never been me.  In my opinion, too many people settle, and I guess that's what I'm getting at - I DON'T WANT TO SETTLE.  I really want to fall in love or, at least, in like.  But I also am smart enough to realize that there is no perfect person out there for us to be with - I mean, our perfect match, the girl I dreamt about when I was little, when love could be attained, and I wasn't so jaded by life.  There was one...I'll leave it at that.

But nowadays, seriously, the girls suck.  Yeah, you suck.  For the most part they are self-centered Princesses who have been spoiled by their parents and told that they should never have to do anything for a guy and that they are the center of the universe.  So what's happened is that there are all these selfish, single girls approaching 40 who are clueless to why they don't have a guy and why they aren't married.  I'll tell you right now why - BECAUSE YOU SUCK.  You don't care about anyone other than yourself and because the first words that come out of your mouth is ME, and because you genuinely will never be a good wife.  And yes, there is a definition of being a good wife, just like there is one about being a good husband a Dad.  We all know what they are, so I will not waste any of our time defining those roles.  And lets not be naive - we all have roles.

Let me ask the girls one question - when you have been out on a date, did you ever ask the guy what he does, what he cares about, what matters TO HIM?  And if so, how long into the date did it take you?  If you have, and you are a caring person who wants to let her guard down, then you are the difference, not the norm.  But I can't tell you how many dates that I have been on where all I here is ME, ME, ME, ME, ME, from the other side of the table, and I'm like, "holy shit, shut the fuck up, already."  But I have to smile, bite my lip, and wait for another shot to make the whole situation make sense - and hope she lets me come home with her.  Let's not be stupid here, I am a guy, and that hope is always there.  But going home doesn't always mean getting laid.  Most of the time, it's nice just to lay there with a woman, feel her next to you.  Shit, that's the good stuff.

But I am so tired of the Girls of Today.  Even though the world has become so confused and upside down and absolutely fucking unpredictable, girls still like guys, and I'm pretty sure guys like girls.  That's an end game observation.  Just stop sucking, pardon the pun - you know what I mean.

ROB'S ADVICE


What happened to girls being girls?  That is sooooo attractive.  Yes I understand that women have bigger careers these days, and that has become your focus, but if you just stepped back and be a girl, I mean a real girl, you would probably see that you would find a guy who would love you for you.  And I know the pent up fury right now that you have about me not talking about the DOUCHEY guys who are out there - bc believe me, I do not discriminate - we suck, too.  And lets not mix up the douchebag Wall Street losers into the group of guys I am talking about, bc we all know they are insecure losers who probably dropped out of college, but somehow make millions down in the market.  Girls need to let their guard down and be a little more vulnerable.  I know that's not easy, and I know accepting our roles isn't easy, but at the end of the day, until men and women understand that we don't understand anything about each other, we are going to run around chasing our tails.  Because our ignorance about each other and our complex differences is what makes us so attractive to one another.  No?

One last piece of advice for women - men are vey simple animals, pet them often, feed them, give them love, and they will do whatever you want :)

POEM



The first thing that I think of

You are the first thing that I think of
When I lift my head from sleep.
You are the last thing that I think of
When I start to dream so deep.

And in-between there are these moments
Of my daily moves and thoughts
That somehow show me pictures
Of your constant beauty caught.

With a power bestowed down on me
As energy and sight
That helps me in my day to day
And life’s eternal fight.

And then there is that feeling
That sucks the air from me.
It is your gift for me to give
My life to everything.

Because your force that makes this anew
Is beauty unbeknownst
To the naïve flocks of people
Who walk this earth without you close.

Yes, this little girl whose all grown up
And changing lives she sees.
She’s made me so remember
The loving man I used to be.
