Men, love and Candy

I know that this is going to be random, but it is what I was thinking (yes, I am aware that thinking is a bad habit) about when I wasn't feeling good. Okay, so lately my guy friends have been asking me why girls date such jerks. I couldn't answer, not knowing but then I started thinking. Girls often go for guys like they go for candy bars...okay stick with me...When we are little we go for the random things-the 5th Avenues, Big Hunks, Sweetarts and Pay Days. The candy is good but as we grow older and more experianced we go for the basics, Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, Almond Joys, Kit Kats and Twixts. What we learn, slowly in both cases, is that expermentation is good and fun, but the truth is that the basics who are there in any convience store or who are our friends through thick and thin, are the ones that we really enjoy and they are the ones who stay around on the shelf for a lot longer. I know that sometimes Almond Joys, Kit Kats, Reeses and Twixts aren't a lot to look at (at first), and that they have a few lumps but it is the inside that matters, they have the strong part and then the inside, which is worth the outer appearance and original misunderstanding. So I guess this is to my guy friends, to let them know that girls are a little slow, but we do catch on, and to my girl friends, who can see what they are picking the next time they go to choose a "candy bar."
