How to: Tips for being a good boyfriend!

Konbanwa, minna-san! Sachi-chan is feeling a little better now, for whatever reason. I’m still feeling kinda gloomy, but not as bad as before.

Anyway, earlier today I talked to a friend of mine who lives over-seas on MSN Messenger. For weeks everytime I noticed him online he had a display name or personal message that said something about some girl that he obviously had feelings for. Naturally, this caused me to realize that he must have found a new girlfriend. I guessed  my curiosity just suddenly got the best of me – and of course, how could I pass up a chance to learn more about the male species? [^_^]

So I messaged him and after the usual small talk (“how’s school?” etc.) I said something like “So, you seem to have found a new female companion.” He laughed and formed a clever, indefinite way of saying “Yes”. Eventually I ended up giving him a couple tips about this particular topic, in which I consider myself an expert *winks*.

Anyway, so I decided to share some of my expertise with minna-san!!! \[*v*]/ <— Love Guru ♥

AWWW! Sweet!

AWWW! Sweet!

OK, here I go (note: some of these tips aren’t exactly the most important things, but they’re useful… I hope [-_-]).

Be a gentleman at all times!

This one might seem simple and “obvious” but it’s just so important, it must be said! Chivalry might seem lame and old fashion, but I for one believe that it is still one of the best, simplest ways to show your girl that you care about her. It also shows that you are respectful and willing to put her before yourself. I’m not certain about how much this means to most girls, but Sachi-chan melts when a guy is  like that [♥.♥].

Be honest at all times!

Hmmm, what more can I say about this… Oh! Why? Because she wants to be able to trust you just like you want to be able to trust her. But even if you want to trust someone, it’s still hard to trust someone who has lied to you or broken a promise or anything like that. So don’t give her any reasons not to trust you.

Take responsibility

If something is your fault let it be know that you realize that and will do what you have to to fix it. I personally find it UBER attractive when a guy can admit that he’s wrong and take on the consequences. It’s just… macho. It’s like the saying “Take it like a man!”. Men take the blows when they know they’ve done something to deserve it.

Be thoughtful

It’s the most special feeling when a girl learns that her guy thinks about her often. Let your girl know that she’s important to you and that she’s always on your mind. This can be done my just giving her a simple gift out of the blue or doing her a favor out of the blue, or just doing anything for her without being asked. Don’t beat yourself up if you can’t afford anything grand. It’s the thought that counts. [^.^]

Defend her

How lovely! [*v*]

If someone’s bugging her, tell them to back off. If someone’s dissing her, stand up for her. Be a little protective of her (don’t be a crazy stalker dude, though 0_0!). If the two of you go out on a date, make sure she has a safe way of getting back home. Take her home yourself if you have to. She should always feel safe with you. Never leave her in potentially dangerous situations.

Never ditch her

That doesn’t mean you have to stalk her! Let her have her space, but be attentive. This is yet another way of ensuring her that you care. Of course, that doesn’t mean that you can’t have any time alone or with your guys. It just means that you have to remember that girls can be super sensitive (like Sachi-chan [;_;]). So don’t act like you don’t want to be around her or are avoiding her (some guys do this to make girls long for them or something – what losers \[`A´]~!). Make sure she knows you enjoy being with her.

Always wear the same cologne

This is something I explained to my friend. I know this makes a difference from my own experience.

When a guy I like always wears the same cologne, it creates something for me to always remember him by. It’s very hard to explain, but it kinda makes me remember him distinctly and like whenever I smell that cologne or one that smells kind of like it, it triggers memories of him and it just makes me smile. I guess it makes a girl feel more secure or something. Plus girls really notice how a guy smells. It’s attractive when a guy smells good. Not too much though!


OK, that seems like about all the advice Sachi-chan can give. Note: these tips may not work for all girls. Everyone’s different. Just use common sense + the Love Guru’s (me [^_^]) expertise *LOL* and you should be fine.

Guys what do you think of the tips? Would you try chivalry on a girl you like? Girls, did I hit the nail on the head, or did I just smash my thumb with the hammer? (I just made that up *proud of self*) Do y’all have any tips to add?

Also, Ane-san, I’m curious to know what you think about this and what other tips you have!

Ja~ne!

How to: Useful Windows Vista Shortcuts

Ohayou gozaimasu, minna-san! Genki desu wa? This is Sachi-chan once again! How am I doing? Hmmm, life has by no means been a bed of roses lately -_-, but I’m just trying to stay positive (even though it’s pretty tough at the moment)… Anyway, so I’m going to start my first of:

Sachi-chan’s Random How-to’s!

But first, I have a quick question before I start about the shortcuts:

Why do some men and women cheat on their spouses???

I mean, I know there can be all kinds of different reasons why they’d do that, but I just think it’s super sad and UBER selfish! ESPECIALLY if they have kids. And I mean, some people even “half cheat”, like they’re “just friends” but everyone knows they just get a little too close too many of the times Ɛ >`.´|||!… Forgive me if I’m making no sense-_-… There’s just a really irritating situation that seems to be going on “behind closed doors” at my school. And I’m really angry about it because it’s between two teachers, one that I like and one that I don’t like. The one I like is just sooo nice and he just seems to be the absolute perfect husband, but the one I don’t like is really… hmmm how do I say it?… she likes to “admire” good-looking guys and stuff (even though she’s married and has a kid). Anyway, so the nice teacher, he’s very attractive and so, I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t cheat on his wife, but I’m pretty sure she would cheat on her husband. And she’s always following him and mentioning him in class etc. ! I really wish she’d back off and leave the guy alone.

Anyway *calms down*, wow that was actually not such a quick question… Ok, back to the main point of this post:

Windows Vista Shortcuts!

OK, of course these are probably not be all the shortcuts there are for Windows Vista, but none the less, here’s a list of shortcuts:

Note: “Win” means the windows key (the one that when you press it, it brings up the start menu.

* Win-Tab – brings up the Flip 3D
* Win-Space – this shows the sidebar
* Win-D – to show the desktop
* Ctrl Win-Tab: Flip 3D but one that stays on the desktop, you can then scroll with up, down, left and right keys
* Win-E – to open an explorer window
* Win-R – to open the run dialogue box
* Win-T – this tabs between running applications onto the taskbar
* Win-Q – this appears to launch Office communicator
* Win-G – pushes focus to the the sidebar the focus and when you press this key combination again it tabs between the gadgets on the sidebar
* Win-M – Minimizes all windows and just shows the desktop
* Shift Win-M – Undoes minimize windows
* Win-Number: Press the Win key and then choose a number of the applications that are in the quick launch task bar. An example the third icon on the taskbar (starting from left) is IE so to run IE press Win-3 and it will launch IE.

Alright, so those are the shortcuts I know of! Hmmm, I got this list from some other website… but I can’t remember where, it was a long time ago O.o.

GOMENNASAI to all of the users using Macintosh computers. Unfortunately, since my notebook is windows, I know no mac shortcuts. Maybe I’ll look some up in the future though.

OK, I must go now *bows*. Thank you, and goodday!

Mata ashita!*~
