Afraid of Karma? Don't do this--->

A girl should be thankful for being single, or should she?

This is something which is inevitable during adolescence. Truly, one should be more thankful if she has suitors, especially if you get your share of roses in which you could put up your own flower shop, and the chocolates. But surprisingly, some teens now toy with the usual courtship and is getting fun out of it.

The saturation of suitors is truly an annoying scene to some. But to others, who deem it as something entertaining, a new kind of game had sprung, inspired by the 2003 movie How to Lose a Guy in 10 days. This game, along with its simple rules and easy game play, is the new revolution in the traditional courtship. Gone were the days when girls play peek-a-boo; behold, the newest game, How to Lose a Guy.

To play this game has its own requirements. It requires a girl who is femme fatale, battle-hardened, true heiress of a bloodline of man-haters, and possesses the determination to wreak havoc on men’s lives, whether they be gentlemen, or just the usual boy in the neighborhood. The success lies solely on the player’s skills. Actually, there are a thousand-and-one ways to lose a guy, but the ones enumerated here are a surefire way in achieving your goal:

1. Call him in times when he’s so busy. Since he’s so busy, entertaining you would be such a burden for him.

2. Never show up on your scheduled dates with him. He’d probably get tired and just give up the wait.

3. Pamper him to the point that it’s so sweet that it actually sucks. In this way, he would probably get sick of you acting like his mom.

4. Ask for something which is way too expensive for him. He’d think you’re such a high-maintenance girl and brood over his shortcomings.

5. Wear the clothes he doesn’t like you to wear. He might never go out with you again.

6. Pester him with frequent mood swings. Never give him a hint that you’re just making it up. Show disinterest in everything he says. Make sure it’s complete with all the facial expressions, especially the part where you roll your eyes.

7. Tell him you want his hair shaved off; otherwise, you’ll leave him. He might cry and pray you change your mind.

8. Tease him as a momma’s boy. He just might get sick of you making fun of him. If he asks you if you love him, reply with “Nope, but I bet your mom does”. He might get teary-eyed because you just broke his romantic moment.

9. Belittle him in front of his friends. He’d probably be too embarrassed to talk anymore. Beat him at his favorite video game, and call him “loser”. Tell the world what a sucker he is.

10. Deny that you’re his girlfriend whenever someone asks if the two of you are a couple. You might get shocked of his reaction after saying this.

11. Go out with another guy. This might get a little out hand, but don’t worry, you’ll never get hurt, but the two guys will.

The last and the most important thing you should remember:

12. You should never, ever fall in love with any of the guys you were supposedly toying with. If this happens, the game is over. The result would be chaotic, and you’ll just find yourself hurt and your heart bleeding.

Following these guidelines would ensure your success, but one should be ready for any dire consequences that might occur if the situation goes a little bit out of hand. And just like any games we usually play, this has also its own downside which is sometimes hard to evade: falling in love…
