What Guys Think Links: Friend Zones & Mood Music
By Tom Miller. Posted on .
Someone has a big birthday this weekend. The rest of you can ward off Friday the 13th hexes and enjoy what guys think:
And now for a little mood music, my buddy Jeffrey Platts has 17 tunes for putting yourself in the mood, glass of red wine optional.
And sometimes the mood takes a little more than some slick jams by R. Kelly. Em & Lo (EmAndLo.com) ask their man panel about watching porn with a partner. Upside: instantly introduces a sexy good time. Downside: they judge you.
But if someone is into your brand of porn, it may be time to snatch her up. Ask Men has a video about knowing when you're ready to tie the knot, stomp a glass or jump a broom.
The Man Registry has heard all manner of hype about wedding night sex and want to set the record straight. Word from the wise: don't get too boozy, aye-aye?
There are myths and then there are myths. Good Men Project wants to dispel the myth that life is gravy for a fellow sporting a colossal noodle. Jeezus, someone Humble Brag this guy already. Also, anyone actually seen The Hard Times Of RJ Berger yet?
Now for something completely different, over at Very Smart Brothas a little wisdom about escaping the friend zone. We're going to need a map, fire, a knife, a key and the fifth thing is a mystery, but you'll know it when you find it.
A good way to stay clear of the friend zone is to not buy corny gifts. Holy Taco starts by telling you to never, ever buy a man pajamas. I say only buy him pajamas if it's as a goof.
And Nerve has a great first-person essay on how he finally broke down, tried online dating, decided it wasn't for him but learned what was for him in the process. I'd like to note that I'm pretty sure he wasn't using CraigsList.
Finally, Leo Averbach, writing for the Huffington Post, contrasts (and compares, but that's implied) the difficulty of splitting up and staying together. Sounds like some people need a lesson on keeping the passion. Did You Know?: The Truth About Sexual Chemistry VIDEO
