“What does it really take for this chick to realize that it was a one-night stand?” - Anonymous Male
Really? It’s just embarrassing to have to defend this question sometimes.
Ladies, do we know when it’s really not about love but rather just about two grown people getting it in?
Just a few pointers:
You know that you’ve been one-nighted when:
~ He doesn’t call you back within two days. Even though you’ve left over 20 voice mail messages.
~ He doesn’t respond to all your texts, emails and IMs.
~ He doesn’t seem interested in returning the underwear that you ‘accidentally’ forgot at his place
~ You no longer see him on your BlackBerry Messenger (bbm). You’ve re-added him and he’s still pending a week later.
~ He changed his number
~ You met him yesterday
No man is that busy. No he didn’t move, misplace your number, die in an accident, or have to visit his ailing family in Thailand. If he has not made an attempt to contact you within 48 hours, just cut your losses, start the proverbial morning walk of shame to find your pride, and keep it moving. Noone really has to know that you were just duped.
Please, for all that is grown ‘n sexy in this world, Do not:
~ Key his car or bust his windows (reference Jazmine Sullivan, loved that song by the way)
~ Blast him through a status update on facebook/ twitter/ myspace/ linkedin/ msn/ gtalk and beyond, talking about how men are dogs and what not. The only person who really looks bad here is you.
~ Take your friend’s phone and call him
**I must add a little disclaimer here that this can be applied to any type of intimate relationship so, male or female, if you are reading this and have to think twice about some of the pointers, do take heed. It’s just that I get it from men more often.**
Feel free to add any more pointers that I’ve missed, for the benefit of anyone who’s reading this post.

SCANDAL!
this sounds like one of those Spy vs Spy comics from the MAD Magazine…there’s sooooo much going on: a hand-grenade goes off, then you get swine flu and HIV in a sandwich, then your house gets blown up with an RPG shot from a Taliban…
thing is, most people wouldn’t have to go through all that before they realise that Friday night was the first, the last and the whole shebang…
most RATIONAL people, that is!
if a man has to duck a woman to THIS extent before she “gets it” that hey…she AINT got it, then she’s gottah be sum hellah needy syko beatch! LOL
now…i really haven’t had THAT MUCH experience with one-nighters, but what what few times i’ve actually done the durrfey deed…well, the idea aint to KEEP what you kill…it’s to puff-puff-pass.
but one must also realise that it’s not just women that are getting caught up in the friday night fantasy–a lot of men are too!
since chicks started getting edumahcated and getting good jobs and driving nice cars that match their Prada tote…these wealthy, worldly and wise women go to the club and cherry-pick the dandies that are there, sprinkled all over the dancefloor. and just like back in the day when they collected Barbies and stuffed them into the toy basket when they got bored of playing dress up, today’s club-creeping hot mama is collecting boy toys as well.
so this phenomenon cuts both ways.
