You walk around every day and people say how nice you are. They really like your generosity and wit and will tell you to your face what a nice guy you are. So, how many of you have ever wondered what type of behavior will have you labeled very quickly as an ‘Asshole’? Well if you have ever been curious, sit back and continue reading because I am about to tell you.
Let’s say, hypothetically of course, that you are friends with a girl, very good friends. You talk with her about almost everything and several times a day. You respect and value her opinion as she does yours. You have been friends for almost a year, most of that year you have also had a sexual relationship… oh yeah, and a girl friend. Many months ago girl told you she had very serious feelings for you, to which you reply that she isn’t your type religiously but you still want to be friends. (Picking up on that underlying ‘friends’ theme? Good, it becomes increasingly important in a minute.)
So you and girl remain friends, still talking many times a week, sometimes many times a day. And occasionally, still having sex. The girl pathetically forms false hopes of futuristic ideas while sadly grasping at just about anything you throw her way be it in the form of friendship or even possibly a glimpse of something more. You tell girl that you ‘will never be more compatible with any one else’. Don’t forget that part because it will solidify her long term emotional investment in the situation.
Eventually girl starts to come to grips with the fact that you will stay in your current relationship for reasons she cannot even begin to understand. While girl remains in love with you, she will date new guys as an attempt to get over you. Make sure you tell girl that it makes you jealous that she is dating other guys. She will think that means that you actually do care about her. Also make sure that you are supportive and attentive and caring continuously. Be genuinely interested in her life and her children. Make her laugh and laugh in return. Make it to where when she hears her phone ring she hopes it is you because you are the one person she wants to talk to constantly.
Then, come to her place. Have absolutely awesome sex with her after many months of not seeing each other. Make sure that several months go by so that she is starting to settle comfortably into the realm of ‘friendship’ and has stopped expecting more from you. Then spend the entire night instead of getting up in the middle of the night and leaving like you usually do. Have breakfast with her and her daughters the next morning making conversation with her daughters and her. When you leave, hug her and tell her to ‘take care’…
Now here it is, the clincher: DON’T CONTACT HER FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK. Nothing, not an email or a phone call, no actual letter or a wave from across the parking lot (again, but longer this time). Completely and totally blow her off. That, boys, is how you can acquire the status of ‘Asshole’. Why? Because the entire time the two of you have known each other, you have continuously professed to want her friendship. And now, you are treating her like someone you couldn't give a shit less about and nothing like a friend.

"The most wasted day is one in which we have not laughed"
"Life moves pretty fast, if you don’t stop and look around once in a while you might miss it."
"Guys are like stars, there's a million of them out there but only one of them can make your dreams come true."
"Reach for the moon, even if you miss you will still land among the stars"

"I just got done reading the history lessons on your blog (yes, I've been lurking on your blog). All the respect I had for you...has increased, like, tenfold. I don't think I could have done it. To go through what you have and not only still be able to discuss it with such wit and poise, but also to raise those three gorgeous girls. You are truly an inspiration. You are honestly one of the strongest people I have ever known, either online or IRL. Thank you so much." -Stef
