The worst is when a guy asks where you want to go to eat or what you want to do and then shoots down everything you say. Then I have to keep suggesting places until I magically pick what he wants to do. If you are that picky don't ask me in the first place!

" I don't think I've ever lived in a place where the women think there is an equal ratio. They always claim it's at LEAST 2:1 or 3:1… But every time I gaze around in Sacrament Meeting, it looks pretty evenly split to me. Sounds like an excuse..."

The women you've met probably think that it's not an equal ratio, because it's NOT AN EQUAL RATIO. 2:1 is probably an overstatement in some cases, but I can honestly say that I have never been in a singles ward where there was an equal number of guys and girls or (heaven forbid) more guys than girls. There are ALWAYS more girls than guys. I don't know this because I look around in Sacrament meeting. I know this because I planned activities, served on committees, and knew the numbers. I'm not trying to use it as an excuse. (Although it does make the plight of the single girl a little more sympathetic than that of the single guy.) I'm just saying that all those girls that complain about the unequal numbers have a point.

I agree... no movie dates until your in a relationship... and then only sparingly. This post makes a good point, although personally when I guy asks me where I'd like to eat, I have no clue what he's thinking and since he's paying, I'm not sure what he had in mind in terms of price either. I prefer it when a guy says "would you prefer BBQ or Pizza" if I opt for BBQ he knows a great joint and we go there. That way we both get to make part of the decision, otherwise yes the lady comes off as headstrong and demanding! Give us a couple choices and we'll go from there!

you mean they will find someone that they will actually REMAIN married to the first time and not get divorced for having been too young and stupid?

2009-03-15T23:18:00.000-07:00

how about this... don't do a movie as a date unless you're in a relationship. be creative and plan the date for goodness's sake! remember the three P's to dating; Paired off, Paid for, and Planned.

2009-03-14T02:10:00.000-07:00

Yeah, but they actually have to ask those questions first, no? Good post, BTW, if you cant pick fast enough, live on the wild side and throw out a random guess, the aiter ill lead you to something nice most of the time. (DO NOT try this in foreign restaurants(ex. authentic aisian, Pho noodle, or Mcdonalds), were waiters do not fully understand your language(ex. Mexican food, when you are visiting a country, etc.), or if there are any funny smells eminating from the kitchen.

First off great post and 2nd as a reply to Spec4ever 27? Really? Is that old to you? what are you about 19 maybe 20 if you had an early birthday. I am well under the age of 27 but that is not an old age it is actaully a great age to get married cause a lot of girls and guys don't have there $h!+ together until then. And only in HAPPY VALLEY is that considered to be old.

2009-03-13T10:42:00.000-07:00

I just went through the online directory for the Longellow Park 2nd Ward in Boston to find out the sex ratio. I counted 99 women, 79 men, and 7 unknowns (no picture, no first name or foreign or weird first name), not counting the Bishopric. That gives us about a 5:4 female to male ratio. Not even CLOSE to 2:1.

It could be that a greater proportion of the girls are active in comparison to the boys. But still don't think it would hit 2:1.

If you cant choose your freakin dinner...How are you going to choose a husband? Holy crap Mormon Girls, You're going to be looking around at age 27 and realize that you missed the "First Round Draft Picks".

2009-03-12T22:40:00.000-07:00

I think all of your points about indecisiveness are valid, but I haven't found them to be as prevalent in women as in the men I know. In fact, it is my number one complaint of all the guys I have encountered in the last few years. Take action! Take responsibility! Stop waiting for someone else to take charge!

Case in point: We all went to dinner and my guy friend couldn't decide what he wanted to order, so he stared at the menu for 15 min, then asked the waitress to just surprise him, and then said, "that wasn't what I thought it was going to be."

Another example: A friend is trying to plan a trip and sent an invite to a group of people, because reservations and plans have to be made, he got all maybes, and "check back with me later, when its closer." Just say yes or no, its not that hard!!

Maybe you should share this with those Mormon Men you know.. I think they could benefit from it more.

I've never read this before and I think it's hilarious, I almost peed pants reading a few of the older posts. But, I don't think I'd go as far as to say that I LOOOOOVE IT (emphasis on the ALL CAPS).

First off I love this blog and find it to contain great advice for lovely young lds ladies. Secondly being decisive can be a tricky business. A girl must be decisive and confident but not head strong and domineering...A balance is needed. Oh the lines we are called to walk! haha Good stuff DS!

Agree all around. Suggestion to indecisive girls:...

2009-03-12T15:00:00.000-07:00

Agree all around. Suggestion to indecisive girls: it's obvious that you're not all flaky. You're probably just a please-all who doesn't want to disappoint with your suggestion. So, give a few options. Go beyond even "I'm in the mood for Italian." Say something like, "I could go for (restaurant you know you like where there's something on the menu you already know you want), (restaurant you know you like where there's something on the menu you already know you want), or (restaurant you know you like where there's something on the menu you already know you want). Any of those sound good to you?"

If he says no, you now know that you cannot date this person any further. He's bound to say yes to one of them. He's happy that he's made you happy and you've come off as a pleasant mix of decisive and not-bossy. Good for you.

So a decisive girl is free to say Ruby River if he asks her what she wants to eat? Obviously this would not be the first date, we've already established we can carry the yoke of a conversation equally.

2009-03-12T13:27:00.000-07:00

ha a dinner date earlier in the week and we hadn't seen each other in a while so we spent the while catching up. the waitress came back 3 times before we opened our menu. i felt bad even opening it while he was talking so as to not be indecisive... but i picked quickly...
