Mr. Wonderful

I first saw the Mr Wonderful Doll (the perfect man in doll form) because my friend Kim has him. I got such a kick out of squeezing his hand and hearing him talk. Perhaps this is because it’s so fricken RARE to ever hear a man utter those words.

Mr. Wonderful Doll... He's tall, dark and handsome. He has sensitive open book eyes, rakish good looks and impeccable fashion sense. Not only that, but he always has just the right thing to say to make you feel like the most special woman on Earth.

Apparently Mr Wonderful Doll has 16 different phrases, including:

· You take the remote, as long as I'm with you, I don't care what we watch.
· Why don't we go the mall, didn't you want some shoes?
· You know honey, why don't you just relax and let me make dinner tonight.
· The ball game is not that important, I'd rather spend time with you.
· You know, I think it's really important that we talk about our relationship.
· Thinking of you is the best part of my whole day.
· You're perfect just the way you are. I wouldn't change a thing.

Here are some that I would add:

· I’m calling for the 3rd time today because I just can’t get you out of my mind.
· I would never leave you for Jennifer Aniston, even if she begged.
· As long as we’re together, ANYTHING is fun.
· You’re not being needy, I’ve been insensitive. I’m sorry.
· Let’s make some plans for next weekend, I want to make sure that we don’t miss an opportunity to spend time together.
· I know I’ve been busy lately, so to make up for it I’m going to take you out for a nice dinner.
· You seem a little ‘off’ today. Is anything wrong? Tell me all about it. I’ll listen but instead of offering solutions, just let me know if I can help in any way at all.
· Of course I remember you saying that, I always listen to everything you say.
· I never thought of it that way, in fact I wasn’t thinking at all. Sometimes I’m truly stunned.
· I regret making plans with my friends instead of with you last night. I didn’t have much fun, mostly because I missed you the WHOLE TIME.
· I love that you spaz out about our relationship, it means you care.
· I can sense that you need me tonight, I’ll be right over.
· Why don’t I just pleasure you right now, I don’t want anything in return. Seriously, I don’t.

Unfortunately Mr. Wonderful is made of plastic and runs on batteries. Hmmm… sounds familiar. Maybe they need to manufacture a Mr. Wonderbuzz...

Sad. So very sad.


The thing is that I actually know guys who say everything you want to hear. I know, hard to believe but they ARE out there... VERY nice to listen to but VERY scary too! This is because if they make you melt with just words... well, then you're a puddle and completely defenseless. No girl likes to be THAT vulnerable! And well, I'm not sure a guy THAT smooth can be trusted;)

However, there isn't a man out there who couldn't use just a bit more Mr. Wonderful in him...

Am I right girls?

So it would seem that you ladies want a guy who has the gift of gab but may be totally deceitful. No mention of the follow through part of the equation. No wonder statistically women vote NDP or Liberal.

Funny.

So where does deceitful come into the equation above?

Hmmm... As usual, you'd better do a reread.

Because we guys (and fathers are guys) KNOW that the male species of Homo Sapiens will say anything to get what they want, and we all know what they want. How about settling for, say, two out of all those things.( I'm a sceptic!)
Or maybe women just like to be lied to!

LOL... it's been a very long time since any guy's words made me a puddle! Think I'll stay puddle free for a long time to come.

michie said...

Hence, the doll.

Like I said... SAD, very SAD indeed.

Al said...

Watch it. The doll may be up to something!

I'm with Al on this one!

I've decided that all real boys can just stay away.

I'm going to hang with Mr. Wonderbuzz, thank you very much.

He's harmless... he says nice things, he's there when you need him and when you need "me time" you can just put him back on the shelf. He's very compliant and never complains about anything. No, maybe he doesn't tend to 'follow-through' on taking me out to dinner, but he's actually happy to hang out with me anytime I want him to and do the things I like to do. Yes, I get weird looks at Starbucks sitting across from the little dude ...But then he makes up for that by telling me I'm purdy and I have a nice butt!!!

What more can a girl with a doll for a boyfriend ask for?

Here's an example of the flack I'm getting over this one (we'll call my friend "flacker" to conceal his identity)...

flacker says: Mr. Wonderfull is full of crap .... and what is up with your list?

me says: what do you mean? you no likey my last comment... or the whole concept? or what is it that you are really asking???

flacker says: I laughed so hard at the thought of a guy that was exactly like what you described; I think you and I both know that that kind of suck ass punk would make everyone sick in the end ... unless you are into the whole "From this moment on I will cease thinking for myself and completely imerse myself in your needs, hence leading us down a path of dependant obsessivenes" hehe

it was pretty funny .. I am not asking anything

me says: haha. which is why mr. wonderbuzz is the only man who will ever put up with me, and vice versa

flacker says: Classic .... I think you may be onto something with that one!
