Dating scene in NYC from the French point of view

Suite et FIN DE CE BLOG.....

it seems that it is going to be my last post on this blog... for some good reasons:)
Since october 31st a few things, as you all know i have moved in with my bboy and i have to say it was not the easiest thing to do OYE VEH!!!!
after some ups and downs, we Finally found our pace, moi accepting his MESS and him, i guess dealing with my : FRANCAISENESS and my very "gentil" temper.... it has been  a roller coaster lets put it this way but  with nice bumps and some "moche" ones as well.
Anyway, i wanted to thank you all for reading my blog and supported me on keep doing it but i guess c ' est la fin de la dating scene.

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY?

ok, i am going to tell you.... be ready for my next post...

GOTT" YA...  regardez the next one and you will understand...........

MY HALLOWEEN PARTY!

what a wonderful night! i am coming back from work FATIGUEE like everybody, when to my dismay i see my bboy lying down the bed, his paperwork all over the bed, the chaussures thrown away, no needs to say that clothes on the floor. FABULEUX C est GENIAL! ( fabulous! it is amazing!)
so like a normal FRANCAISE, JE HURLE ( I SCREAM!) and he is like what is happening with you?
And i become HYSTERIQUE (hysterical) we French people have this tendency to be very EXPRESSIVE! so NOUS CRIONS!

Je suis de retour....

It has been a while, i have just realized more than 3 months and so much can happen in 3 months. Let me tell you zis....
Par ou commencer ( how to start...). I have to admit the "dating scene is no longer "partie de ma vie" et be oui since i am still with b boy i should reinvent a title for my blog like " how to live with an American" from a French point of view. Yes you all guessed: ON A EMMENAGE: WE MOVED IN.... YES YOUPi oh OURRAY!!!!!!!! MAIS PAS SI VITE ( NOT SO QUICK!!!) C EST DUR: IT IS SO DIFFICULT... a daily work and on top he is AMERICAN, please do not take offense but ah la la la....
we have moved in almost a month ago, deja! Upper West Side, should we say very JAPPY?!! heuu bof maybe more like JFP ( jewish French Princess), ok just kidding....
so here we are, moving furniture around, choosing blinds, and MOnsieur needs to be part of everything or in charge of TOUT ( ALL) even the way i put food in fridge has to be under control ( normal if you want it to be kosher!!!) but not with a boyfriend. He is driving me nuts.
Ok i am not easy but PLEASE!!!!!!
A week ago, i went out for dinner with my girlfriends for a change of scenario cuz seeing boxes " partout" all over the place, it gets to you. Anyway, Boyfriend has decided to stay in. So after a nice hot evening, i came home to find my HOMME, sleeping like a big BEBE.
As i walked into the bathroom to take a shower to my huge ETONNEMENT or should i say to my disbelief, i saw clothes on the floor from socks, t shirts and so on, i has the feeling he wanted to leave his personal "touch" and what about one!! AU SECOURS!!! PLEASE HELP ME!!!
but it got worse as i am about to jump in, i open the shower curtain and then to MY ENORME SUPRISE!! the bathtub was really, lets say colorful, no the more appropriate word will be " HAIRY" an " HAIRY BATHTUB" just of thought of it GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.........
I probably spent more than 1 hour cleaning his mess while mister was sleeping peacefully!!! VIE DE COUPLE....
In the morning, i woke up like a nutcase to confront him before he was about to leave for work and then asked him " what happened yesterday? tu es FOU ( are you nuts?!?!). Please hold your seat now: do you know what he told me and i quote " it is ok i would have cleaned as the end of the week the clothes and the bathtub" Entre nous , we were SUNDAY!!! A WEEK, he could have waited a week....

Should i say that my MEC is simply out of his mind or simply a regular " MEC" ( GUY)???
Welcome to my real world.

Ma Meilleure amie's post

This new post has been written by My best friend to answer
Stephanie's blog:postcard_from_heaven_on_earth.typepad.com . I guessed it opened a "vrai" debate. this debate seemed to become deep to Ma meilleure amie's heart ( Merci Stephanie:) It is funny at the beginning, she was all hesitant and a la fin, she couldn't stop!!! C est Genial...

It is a really interesting post and more serious than i could be! I am too much French and maybe she is too English! that's why maybe we are "compatibles''
Enjoy and do me a favor, it is her first post ( so send her some comments, s il vous plait! )

MAIS SHUT!.....don't tell her that i wrote it:)

Hi Stephanie, i think u may well have opened up a fun debate ..well for the women of the blogs world at least. The men may run a mile!!! truth hurts right guys???!
Frenchieee is my best friend so i can safely say that she wasn't solely referring to the sexual aspects of relationships...u are right sex is only 1 aspect and perhaps not the most important but BOY if it aint there it aint worth continuing. For a relationship to work and be solid u need intellectual stimulation and physical, there are no questions there...
I think Frenchieee on behalf of all of us females is trying to figure these "Menschs" out. Why are they so confusing?! i mean they sit and complain that we are "naggers", that we are too demanding, but at the end of the day at we tell it how it is! we have a problem, we have issues we just come out and say it! men listen and want to move on without finding solution. As my friend says they are simple POULES MOUILLEES!!!

On a more serious note I think u bring up a super important point...we sound like SHRINKS!!! we women must like ourselves. it is hard! i am the first to admit it. I am more of the world of giving to others before taking care of myself. BUT with age and experience (am in a relationship!!! so i know!) you really do have to take a step back and ensure you get what you need. Your philosophy of women needing to believe in themselves and in their needs to better control their relationships is a great point and a must for a healthy relationship. Why should the men be the assertive ones!! oh by the way i am not a FEMINIST.Download odyssey_native_new_yorker.mp3

L ' absence....

I was out of service as we may say! So many things have happened recently that i won't even know where to start! Sorry if i haven't given any news... i should get back to my postings this week! Before the holidays!
I have so much to write...

i wish you all Shana tova  if i don't write before this time of year!

but i will be in touch with my new " aventures' of the "poule mouillee" yes because lately, i have been a " grosse poule mouillee".

I hope you are all well...
