There are a lot of things that change when you become a couple. One of those things is how you go out and spend time with friends. Sure, you still see your respective friends but, as a couple, it’s nice to have other couples to hang out with. You hope that your friends’ significant others and your significant other will get along. But how do you know you and your significant other will get along well with another couple? Rich is now in the same process, and Nicole and her boyfriend so far are passing with flying colors.

Everyone does this whether they realize it or not. When you go out with another couple you’re secretly going down a list in your head – do you all share the same interests, have a lot of the same views, is it fun hanging out with them, etc. You’re checking to see if, as couples, you click.

There’s even a How I Met Your Mother episode on this. Marshall and Lilly have been desperate to find another couple to hang with and think their prayers have been answered when Robin & Barney get together. How do you “audition” other couples to see who you & your significant other can hang out with? What has your experience been like?

Look At The Guy Over The Interviewee’s Right Shoulder…

Some of you may have heard the story and watched the video but in case you haven’t, here’s a quick summary. An Australian news channel was doing a live interview with someone from a finance company, and during the interview, in the background, you see people working at their computers. One of the bankers is sitting with his back to the camera and the computer screen facing the camera.

During the interview this banker opens a couple of different emails with pictures of model Miranda Kerr in skimpy clothes attached and it’s all caught on camera. She wasn’t nude, but just dressed very sexy, and in swimsuits. Thanks to the internet, and TV, there are videos with extreme zooming to show this, and with lots of exaggeration.

There was worry that he was going to lose his job after he got suspended. He’s gotten support from all over the internet, and Miranda Kerr herself said she would sign a petition for the banker to keep his job. Thankfully, he will be keeping his job after his company announced their decision today.

We all look at stuff at work, whether it’s sports, girls, gossip sites, MoreMashUp.com, Facebook, or Twitter. Should this banker have gotten in trouble over this? Did he really do anything wrong in the first place? What do you look at while at work that maybe you shouldn’t be (let’s keep it clean people, get your mind out of the gutter)?

First, we wanted to see if Nicole looked like Snooki from The Jersey Shore. Now, do you think Rich Davis looks like Pauly D?

The Bachelor: A Reflection of Dating In Real Life (In A Short Period of Time)?

Rich was watching The Bachelor the other night and he was amazed at how all these girls who were clearly more of the “designer bags, high fashion, and high heels” type try and convince the bachelor, Jake, that they actually liked outdoorsy things like camping, four wheeling, hiking etc. That’s when Rich came to the realization that women are always auditioning for men.

According to Rich, men are the ones that decide who they’re going to marry by proposing and so women are basically auditioning for them to win that proposal. That’s why they’re always pretending to like things they don’t and are more willing to try something the guys wants to do. Where as guys are pretty much stuck in their ways, and less apt to try things they don’t like, or that women like.

After bringing this point up Nicole was ready to punch Rich in the face. What kind of theory is that?! Women are not “auditioning” and when two people start dating they are always trying to show they’re best side first. They then eventually they both open up to each other. The idea that women are “auditioning” until the day they get married is ridiculous.

Another good point that Stanley T brought up is that in a way, men ultimately make the decisions before marriage. Once a man proposes though, the women gain control. It pretty much starts right away with the wedding planning!

Ultimately, the man is the one that proposes 99% of the time, so he decides if he wants to marry the girl he’s with. With all this said, are women constantly auditioning for men until they get that proposal?
