Bringing Sexy Back

Do you speak Menglish?

I haven’t always spoken man. I emphatically and relentlessly speak girl. I think with my heart and let my emotions do the work...obsessively, analytically, feelings on my sleeve and my jacket and my hot pink fingernails, and shameless sensitivity.  But over a decade of this love merger has taught me a thing or two about comprehending my guy and I’ve gradually and uhmm (at times) unwillingly become fluent in the language of “man.”

Number 1 Rule of speaking man...your mate finds confidence in knowing  they are your modern day Superman...your life’s dream of what a male should be...a Zeus come to earth...every waking thought of them rocks your world...and that a girl’s been waiting all day to tell them how completely fine they really are...

...and it’s no wonder this does not come naturally to most of us babes out here because we don't speak "Menglish." The craziness inside our heads looks something like this...”

do these jeans say WIDE LOAD? 

wedges or heels? 

I NEED A PEDI! 

soccer practice? 

parent teacher conference?

gray hair?!

must I bathe the children again?

jammies to work today... 

can we just order takeout already?...

Married people you already know...Mars and Venus can be worlds apart. 

And this is why little by little...love brick by love brick...I have built my little house of man words...

Runner Girl set out on a LOVE Experiment...I’m calling it the SEXY Project and here’s my challenge to all you girls who speak girl and think like a girl and act like a girl...

(Single ladies stay away from this one until you’ve landed Mr. Perfect and he is dying to put a ring on it. Unhitched male ego cannot handle this. I come in love.  Hugs and kisses and XOXO for waiting for God’s best.)

The SEXY PROJECT went like this...

I decided to tell my blue eyed boy that he is sexy each and every

day for the next 30 days and see where getting his attention takes me...

Day 1--”You’re sexy.” Immediately he holds my hand and lovingly asserts I’m his BFF.

Day 2--I text...”btw...you’re sexy..”

He responds...”Lol.  Thanks babe.  Love u.”

Day 3--Out of the blue, he grabs my hand to hold it.  Later that day, I say, “Hey you know you’re sexy...”

He tells me I’m awesome and he loves me and he loves our family and days like these.  I think I like this project... 

Day 4--I forgot (eeeek!!) I”ll say it twice tomorrow...

But so far we both feel a little bit closer and a teensy more sexy and a whole lot more in love.

27 more days of sexy...and who knows how much amor is ready to be unleashed...but speaking guy is working it’s magic for this marriage...(And btw, babe if you’re reading this, I mean each and every word...)

I challenge you girls to allow your guy to hear what you’re saying this week and let me know how Operation Sexy is changing your man and you and your entire life.  Communication is the key to a better everything and to bringing Mars and Venus back into the same universe and finding galactic love as the bright and shooting comets we were meant to be.

Can’t wait to hear how Project Sexy went for you!

Getting our sexy on...
