The Stringer

There are a few rules that society lives and breaths by.  The one I'm going to tell you about today is "The Stringer."  Everybody has heard of the phrase "stringing them along" but it's more then just a phrase, it's a noun.  Either you're the stringer, or you're the string.

The Stringer - (noun)
1.  Someone who does not discourage a relationship or physical activity with a groupie/fan/crush while fully aware the groupie/fan/crush is not their type.
2.  Someone who is terrible at break up's and therefor chooses not to.

The String - (noun)
1.  The counterpart to the Stringer.
2.  The groupie/fan/crush that is too blinded by "love" to see the other person is just not into them.

So there you have it; either you're the tool or you're the bitch.  Personally I have about 2-3 strings right now just in case.  It's not that I'm bad at break up's, it's just that these girls are too hot to leave out there.  It's as easy as sending a "hey, just thinking of you :)" text once a week to maintain the attachment.  The good guy in me says it's a cheap trick to do to these girls, and the seducer in me says save in case of emergency.  

And while I may come off as a tool to some of you, let me also mention that I am the string with 2 girls.  The first girl I am anxiously waiting for the day she is single again.  The second (we'll call her Ash) is by far one of the hottest girls I know.  This girl I've known my whole life and got friend zoned pretty early.  In this rare case, I've worked out of the friend zone into a friend-with-benefits-without-taking-clothes-off relationship.  Allow me to explain...  I willingly acknowledge that I am the string with this girl merely because of how hot she is and we give each other full body massages.  That's right suckers, we practice on each other!  (plus I get the family discount at her work)  On top of that sweet tidbit, she works out 6 times a week and loves to show me her reveling pictures for my approval.

What makes this ironic is that the same skills I'm learning with Ash is the same thing I do to most girls that turn them into strings. I give them their best massage, they give me a makeout or head some other time.  Seems fair to me.  So you see, being the string is a passed on thing.  I was the string to Ash, and these girls are now my string.

As my parting gift of advise, I'll leave you with this:
Learn how to give massages.
