JOINING HAS ITS PRIVILEGES

Okay I’m reading this book called The Perfect Shoe, by Kimberly T. Matthews. In OfficialGroupie’s post we identified the “type” of woman we’ve been to a man, now let’s classify the type of man we’ve had based on shoe type. Here are the descriptions below….

The Workday Pump – a woman’s best platonic male friendship. He’s the basic type of brother who maybe works with you every day, listens to you complain, and offers good male advice. He’ll loan you a dollar for a soda and will change your tire if you don’t have AAA. The thing to remember about the Workday Pump is that although your relationship is purely platonic, he appreciates your finer qualities, finds you attractive, and is not above taking some if you offer. He may from time to time express that he doesn’t know why your boyfriend is tripping because he would date you in a heartbeat…if he could.

The Flip-Flop – makes a lot of noise and offers NO protection. He constantly confesses he loves you and you’re the woman of his dreams he, he can’t live without you…yada yada yada… He’s full of empty promises and future commitment dates, but when it comes down to it, his talk is cheap. Messing with this man ultimately leads to painful heartbreak.

The Winter Boot – the boot that once on takes the help of another individual (usually a sister or best friend) to get off. The man you can’t seem to get rid of NO MATTER WHAT!! Saying, “I’m not interested,” is not enough for him, nor is cursing him out, talking about him behind his back, telling people he’s gay, and letting his dog runaway…on purpose. He’s crazy and will stop at nothing to have you. The only thing to stop him is you (or him) being committed to someone else, but as soon as either of you are free he’s there to remind you that he’s waiting for you.

The House Shoe – just like the shoe (those slippers splattered with chicken grease that stick to the kitchen floor) dude is only good for things like taking out the trash and checking the mail. You see him only in the comfort and privacy of your home, because he will embarrass the hell out of you in public. You don’t even go to the grocery store with him…He is for the house ONLY!!

The Bedroom Shoe – this shoe (dude) is soft, warm, inviting, and luxuriously comfortable. He’s not to be confused with the Bedroom shoe. He’s a step above taking out the trash and can be taken outside. He’s strictly for pampering you, thus bringING relaxation to your body. He’s known to bring the wiggle out of your toes and the moans from your lips. It’s important to take extreme care not to let the Bedroom shoe become a House Shoe.

The Stiletto – The sexy shoe…tall, makes your calves more appealing and is very versatile. You can wear it with a formal gown or with a pair of jeans and a blouse. It draws the attention of envious shoe wearers. He must look good on your arm no matter the occasion. He can casually hang out at the mall, escort you to a business mixer, and wear a tux. Although you already look good, he makes you look better, with his sexy fine self!! He has his shit together in all areas and it shows in his demeanor. (If he is not sexy and fine, no matter how versatile he is, he simply is not a Stiletto)

So which of these dudes have you experienced? I haven't finished the book, but I guessing she trying to find the right Stiletto, I'm in the same boat as her, LOL. I've experienced all of the above except the Bedroom shoe and the Stiletto :-(

I find this interesting. I have a closet full of flip flops, work pumps and winter boots. I don't wear shoes around the house (seriously- no scrubs) and I've had the bedroom shoe but it always seems to be with someone I really don't wanna be with.

Stiletto is what I would call an Renaissance Man, the ever "unobtainable" man. The probability of meeting a "stiletto" that's not conceited or a total cocky mess is slim to none, almost a MYTH if you ask me lol.
Has anyone ever met a man that was the total package but wasn't arrogant at all? 100% sexy and humble with morals?

People air too much of their business on twitter. I want to be in PR, so twitter is a good look for me in the sense of it's the new hype media tool. And, it was fun when I lived out of town away from my friends as a way for us to keep up with each o…
