Stuff you've learnt the hard way

[Becky]

When a guy tells you he's a jerk, he's a jerk.
When a guy insists he's the nice guy that girls overlook, that's because he's also a jerk, but refuses to admit it.

This reminded me of a story from my first date with DH

We went mountain biking, and I didn't know the trails very well. He got pretty far ahead of me in a tight twisty section, leaving me to wonder where the heck I was and if I'd missed a turn. A few minutes later, he came sprinting back to find me, saying, "I'm such a jerk, I'm so sorry! I'm such a jerk....I'll slow down!"

I figured that any guy who was that willing to apologize and admit his mistakes was worth a second date....the rest is history
