How NOT to Chase a Girl (in HOGC) « Black, White, and All Things In Between

Since we’re in the season….might as well post something helpful for everyone.

It’s really funny how some dudes just don’t get it. And it’s really not helping anyone. So….here goes.

Disclaimer: I am not referring to anyone in particular. Though some people were an inspiration.

How NOT to Chase a Girl (in HOGC)

Do not…
1. Gaze longingly at her
Girls have eyes at the back of their heads and very good radars. We can tell. And it freaks us out.

2. Find every excuse to wait for her
Walking down to the white gate together when you stay in jurong and she in woodlands is pretty obvious and freaky.

3. Buy lunch for her
Dude….how’d you know what we like anyway?

4. Offer to carry her stuff
We are Nu Ren, not Fei Ren.

5. Buy her anything
Ok dudes. VERY FEW girls in church actually like stuffed toys. So no, the huge bears don’t work for everyone.

6. Call her everyday about random stuff
How many ‘good reasons’/'work-related’ matters can you call her about anyway? You’re bound to run out of ideas, and she’s bound to run out of excuses to reject you nicely without hurting your ego.

7. Stalk her
Dude, who’s gonna believe you just randomly happened to pass by her school/workplace every once in a while?

8. Be extra nice to her
Yes…it’s weird. And yes…we can tell. I know it’s a little generic, but I’m sure you know what I mean.

9. Say mushy stuff
Ever. EVER.

And the top DON’T….

10. Piss off her BFF.
Game over dude.

And though the title is How NOT to chase a girl, I might as well add how TO.

Do….
1. Get your Ms right!!! (Master, Mission, Mate)
No girl in the right mind wants to be with an aimless dude.

2. Be friends first!
Find out more about each other. Favourite food, favourite colour, characteristics, pet peeves, value system, family. Everything! As much as she doesn’t want to be with someone she hardly knows, don’t start chasing someone YOU hardly know.

3. Be discreet in the beginning
Letting a girl know you’re interested in her right from the beginning kills your chances faster than Flash can outrun Superman. Relax. Chill. Peace out. Don’t get all nervous and chimpanzee-hands (Peck has a whole theory about chimpanzee hands, go ask her).

4. Be genuinely nice..
Not just because you want to make an impression. There’s a difference between buying food specially for her (without asking) and asking if she’s hungry.

5. Speak her language
Check out point 2. And speak her language. If she likes flowers, talk about flowers. If she likes K-pop, ditch her. I’m kidding. But speak her language, get some common ground!

6. Be a gentleman
Open doors. Pull out chairs. Carry stuff. Not just for her, but for every one in general. Don’t just look out for the girls you have a crush on…look out for all girls. And she’ll pick it up.

7. Call her by her name
No honey, sweetie-pie, dear, darling….we have names.

8. Groom yourself
Yeah, superficial as it may seem. Taking care of your appearance tells a girl how much you can take care of yourself, and ultimately, her.

9. MAKE FRIENDS WITH THE BFF
Seriously. That’s a real winner.

And for the ultimate do….
10. BE YOURSELF.
Dude. Just relax and be yourself. Work on yourself…your character…your relationship with God. And the girls will line up.

Hope this helps. I might become a bestselling author and have an Aunt Agony column of my own one day. Yippee.
