Thank You Forest Gump

As cliché and f*****g lame as this is going to sound…..

Forest Gump had it right when he said, “life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get”. 

Lets just say for this exercise in revelation that men are chocolates. 

I love chocolates.  Who doesn’t love chocolates? They are delicious, appealing to the eye and senses and chocolates have an inviting aroma (most of the time). Each kind is different yet most chocolates are just chocolates. I have to say…I’ve had some really good chocolates and I’ve had some bad.

If ever I was given a box of chocolates by someone.  I  always thought if I would just bite into each piece  and taste it… that I would have a pretty good idea what I was about to eat. And I do just that.  I take a bite out of each piece of chocolate and then I put it back into the box.   My saliva gets all over each piece and yep..that piece goes right back into that box.  I do hope that no one else dips their grubby paws into my box and forbid, share in my saliva! Actually, who would eat a half eaten chocolate?   I guess if they didn’t know someone had actually bitten it with their mouth someone might.

Anyway, this method of taking a bite of each piece is supposed to keep me from eating the bad ones. But I’ve already bitten into the chocolates!   I still have to taste a bunch of crappy chocolates before I get to the good ones! And even worse…I often eat the crappy pieces first because I want to save the best for last.  Generally, by the time I get to that really good piece of chocolate, it’s hardened and I have to toss it out because it’s not available to eat any longer.

Maybe I should just NOT bite into any of them.  Or choose one favorite and stick to it!  Hence, I would never know what I was missing would I? 

P.S. Don’t ever buy me chocolates, bake me a pan of brownies.

C'mon!!! Look at the picture to the left and tell me you still don't want any chocolate!
Great write, attractive title and I'm sure it's relatable with a lot of women! Ironically your methods of eating the chocolates can translate into a cliche' dating scenario. Very clever.....
