I’m seriously beginning to believe that the art of conversation is going the way of the dodo bird. Because you and me…

We need to talk.

Did that sentence send chills down your spine? Are you frozen with fear? When your significant other whispers those four little words, does your stomach take a turn for the worse? Because all I’m asking for is a little conversation.

This is reason why I despise online dating and favor meetings in the flesh. Because I want the butterflies, the stolen glances, and the pregnant pauses in conversation. Somewhere along the line people forgot what good conversation could bring. It enhances any situation — job interviews are fun and even peace treaties are signed.

Back in the day, the saying was:

Men want to marry a woman who is a chef in the kitchen, a maid in the living room, and a whore in the bedroom.

But honestly, nowadays, you can hire the first two and just focus on being the third. Heck, you can probably hire all three! It’s less about conforming to the every mold. Each girl wants a boy she can, “have a conversation with…be on the same wavelength…I want him to get me.” These words are the new black. However, be wise with your words because I once read, “a pick-up line is as rude as a pinch on the butt, pushing for intimacy, yet leaving choice to the other person.” Don’t unclass yourself by giving a line, strive for the conversation.
