Always Fall For Your Type

Fall For Your Type talks about how one falls for the same type of person despite knowing how badly it will end. In the song, Jamie Foxx knows that the type of girls that he falls for are not good for him but he keeps falling for the same type. I love this song but I have never really thought about the meaning behind it until a few weeks ago. Have you ever thought about the type of guys that you fall for, whether they are good for you or not?

The other day, my friend and I were looking at guys on one dating site. Every guy that we came across, we would say no to and then move on to the next guy who would we also find problems with. However, if there is a guy that had similarities to an ex or someone we liked before, we would say that he was cute or a potential. So I asked her if she ever thought that the reason why some of these relationships that don't work is because we always fall for the same type of guys that we have been dating. It got me thinking that we ladies need to stop being picky and just go for a different type of guy! We don't have to lower our qualities or scratch everything that we stand for. Instead of looking for a guy who has a master's degree or a Ph.D, try to go for someone who has just a Bachelor's degree. Or if you typically fall for the tough looking guy, try to go for the sweet looking guy, who knows that might be your forever after? A lot of people who are married have stories that start with how they did not like each other in the beginning but they gave each other a chance. Why don't you do the same? Just don't start talking to that guy who hates your guts, that probably won't work! Sometimes you need to step out of your comfort zone to realize that there are better things than the things you are used to. Be adventurous and change your routine! I am one of those people that hates change but I know that somehow I have to accept it and look at it as a new journey.

We ladies have long list of things that we want in a man and some of those things that are on the list are not realistic at all. Some of the things get us in trouble. How many millionaires do you know that would walk up to you and ask you out? Don't you think that sometimes it's better to start from the bottom with that one special guy and get to the top together? I mean I am not opposed to a millionaire walking up to you and asking you on a date, kudos to you if that happens. All I am saying is that we need to be realistic with lists that we make for our dream men. And if the list is not doing us any good and is making us fall for people who are not good for us or who are not for us, then it is best we ditch that list and start a new one, or better yet be spontaneous and don't have a list at all. But remember, not having a list does not mean that you should compromise your morals and standards, it just means you are creating more chances for yourself.

If every guy that you date treats you the same way (badly), then it is time to take out that list and evaluate what you are missing from the list. It may be the type of guys that you are falling for or it might be that those guys are not appreciating you the way they should. However, if the list is working for you, keep it! Just don't fall for the same type of guys that mistreat you. Work on changing the type of guys you fall for.
