An exotic European girl whose name is hard to pronounce (that makes her even more attractive), asked me yesterday " What do you have to offer to the world of women?". She said a few nice things that made me happy and persuaded to analyze this. I could not help laughing and I still continue to crack up but I was also thinking about it at the back of my head. The answer might require a few years of penance in the Himalayas and still I might not be able to come up with an appropriate answer. I am unable to offer that most guys promise to deliver - 100% commitment, plenty of love and tons of money.
I am committed to running/working out, I love running/working out more than women and my purse/Atm balance never seems to be enough.
Probably one thing I can do is to make the woman smile and treat her well until the relationship gets heavy. Immediate compassion is possibly another thing I can offer. I also feel that women find running to be a direct competitor and they feel insecure when I prefer to run rather than hang out. That makes them try harder but they need to know that running makes me what I am and running is more of 'our' friend rather than a foe.
I am unable to answer her question. The question has only sparked a few more question marks in my head.
The last few days have been like the 30th km of a marathon. Your legs start to cramp and your head tells you that you can't run. However, when you look below you are moving. Its that time when you send a prayer to all the Gods and request them to make the cramp disappear. This has what has probably made me religious back again. A full circle !!!
Some people come into your life just to make you happy. I call them "Smile Catalysts". I bumped into one of them recently and I cannot stop laughing even through the toughest time of my life. I find this to be a present for me directly from the house of God. The 'gift from God' has everything that I admire - completely self made, intellectual and of course a great sense of humor.

The correct response should have been why do you have to offer "the world of women" anything? Why does there need to be an offer made?
This is a typically feminist question, and one that would have put me on the defensive. To offer up some kind of resume, is to show your weakness.
As you grow up, you will realize that most mature, confident women dont need to know what you have to offer, they like you for who you are, flaws and all.

Smile Catalysts! Oh I love that - everyone needs at least one such person in their lives! :)
Great word combination once more: smile catalysts, I think you could add to your assets 'wannabe poet'. It is normal that you do not have an answer dummy...one day somebody will tell you and it will sound right to you. ;p
Glad I am helping you to overcome adversities.
As plebian as it may sound, I'm sure you can offer your athlete's body to the women, no?
You are the man buddy! Good one.
