After a bottle of my favorite sancerre, my sidekick and I got to talking about life and love. The product of this conversation was a metaphor that involved our spoons and forks. Introducing #365love's first outsourced blog. Who better to give it to then my partner in crime, Costadina MG.
Guess the title says it all? A recent brunch with the lovely Cheryl Besner got us talking about the men in our lives and the categories they fall under.
We all have that man in our lives that we know isn’t “the one”. The only reason we still hang on to him is for those morning phone calls, random text messages throughout the day that make you feel good and a sure dinner date whenever needed.
Ladies this is the man we fork… We keep him around for the sake of the security we feel in knowing he’s always there. This goes for all types of women. For the on the go businesswoman, the man we fork simplifies her day-to-day life. For the regular nine to five woman he’s our go to looks good in a tux kind of man. And for the free spirited woman he’s the perfect late night booty call.
It’s all fun and dandy having the man we fork around at all times, however there comes a time in every woman’s life where she finds her spoon.
Being an ex hopeless romantic I am not talking about your prince charming. Some say he exists, I myself believe as did Cinderella that once the shoe is dropped there’s no turning back.
The man we spoon isn’t hard to recognize. He’s the one that walks into a room and from that moment you can’t help but smile. He’s the guy who might not look so good in a tux but will keep you dancing the whole night through. And for all the women who hate to admit it, after a long intimate night, he’s the one you want to “spoon”.
The hard part about the men you fork and the men you spoon is figuring out when it’s time to put the fork down and enjoy your final bite with your spoon.
