Todays daily insight stems from a conversation I was having with friends about what we want in a guy. Now I know I may of touched on this topic before, but it's my blog and I can repeat myself if I want to!
Lol, now that I've gotten that out of the way: a wise man once said "don't wife her if she ain't at least 9% hoodrat." Can we all just collectively let the church say amen to this?!? My friends and I were having a discussion about a nice guy can almost be too nice, and maybe we aren't looking to have that picket fence and 2.5 kids just yet. And the hoodrats (bad boys) we are usually attracted to are not appropriate for this stage in our lives.
In comes the theory of the perfect guy, the guy who is at least a small percentage hoodrat! The man you don't have to tell not to to wear sneakers to church, but you can bring them around the homies that may still be hugging the block and he can fit right in.
Me personally, I consider myself about 21% hoodrat. I can drink with the best of them, curse like a sailor when necessary, hell I even know how to play dice, and haggle the Spanish man at the bodega to put extra bacon on my turkey sandwich for free. But on the other hand I am an intelligent, perfectly well mannered, college educated, articulate business analyst.
We all have that ratio of hoodrat to good guy we are looking for...my advice is to take that qualities you are looking for in both and keep your eyes peeled for that man. We ain't getting any younger, but we should not settle for a percentage we wouldn't think would make us happy. That man who can open your Corona with his keys, while debating politics with him will come along before you know it. Keep hope alive biddies!
