Restraining orders & safety pins are necessary

Written by crystal on Sunday, 2 of March , 2008 at 8:07 am

Hi there! It’s your friendly heartthrob expert Crystal. I know so presumptuous of me - but you know it’s true!

So it’s been awhile since my last entry in my widely popular series here in VABN. So I thought I be generous and write one up for you today. So, are you ready?

What to Expect When Dating a Heartthrob

You are going to need a restraining order issued to all the members of the male species (except for your heartthrob obviously - give one to your dad too, just in case)

WTE: Gentleman one day; macho the next

Written by crystal on Monday, 14 of January , 2008 at 11:46 am

It’s been awhile since my last “What to Expect” article. I’m sure you missed me. But I’ve been so pre-occupied with my own heartthrob you see. And I heard through the grapevine that you feel you don’t need any tips from me anymore. Well, sweet pea, lest you forget, your heartthrob is of male persuasion – which basically means he is bound to do something that just calls for some hair-pulling on your part while at the same time makes you want to just shower him with kisses (or whatever else you want to do but I have young readers too). ;)

Anyway, this brings us to today’s topic…

What to expect when dating a hearthrob

Written by crystal on Wednesday, 19 of September , 2007 at 4:57 pm

Dear Readers,

It has come to my attention that some of you are wondering what it’s like to date a “hearthrob” - so much that I might just convince Chay to make What to Expect when Dating a Hearthrob a series of entries here in VABN, sort of like my own advice column. I think it’s a swell idea! What do you think?

Let’s see…

What to Expect When Dating a Hearthrob

  • He will deny you and/or your relationship
  • He has to be “available” in the eyes of those who care. Of course, you probably will have talked about this beforehand - so more likely you will not have a problem with this. And he will make up for it behind close doors ::wink:: ::wink::

  • A lot of his fans/admirers will HATE you.
  • Harsh, isn’t it? But it does comes with the territory. This “hatred” is at varying level too

    • there are those who will stop at nothing to show your “imperfection”. You can expect crude comments on your clothes, hair and even shoes.
    • and there are those who wishes you’re somebody else - like another co-star or just someone who best “represent”/”resemble” them (it’s easier for their fantasies that way)
    • of course there are those who are pretty convinced that you are the devil’s incarnate (or whatever word they like to refer you as - think words that start with “w” and “s”)
    • and let’s not forget the craziest of the bunch - those who wants you to DIE - like yesterday. And they either want a slow painful death or violent one (like get hit by a train)…although some of them are a little bit nicer - they just want you to jump off a cliff.
  • this one might just be the most tricky of them all - the people that “spins” his hearthrob image will HATE you too.
  • It doesn’t matter if you bake them sugar/fat-free cookies everyday. Why? Because you make their job harder. Keep this in mind when reading the next 2.

  • the Press/Media will have a love/hate relationship with you.
  • Before they get an “official” confirmation of your coupledom, they will throw a lot of speculations - they’ll even throw in the words “cute couple”. Once they get their “confirmation”, they will try to break you up. See the next item.

  • there will be RUMORS!!!
  • these rumors will range from

    • the good
    • you were caught making-out at a mall

    • the ridiculous
    • you returned an item he bought you after wearing it out

    • the ugly
    • he’s “hooking up” with another girl, etc

    • the down right WTF!
    • you break-up, like every other day

    With these rumors, keep in mind that anything, and I do mean ANYTHING, that goes wrong - whether it’s his career or the weather, is ALL.YOUR.FAULT!

Now, don’t fret. It’s really not all bad.

Even without much “public gushing” from him, you will know he’s under your spell. He would have to be, right? He might initiate a sort of “ring exchange”. Maybe even take you to the nearest drive-thru even after a long flight. And you never know, he might even “drag” you with him the next time he goes overseas.

Wouldn’t that be crazy? Of course it will mean that you will have to deal with even more of the stuff I listed.

But get this, you will be a “hero” to some - just because you have to deal with all the above BS.

Well, such is the life of someone dating a hearthrob.

Until next time.

Your not so friendly advisor,

Crystal

so Vanashbrenique!
