		<description>Christ I bitch about my gym membership...I paid $138 for three months and a class and I go 3 times a week!  $160.00 for one gym visit is outrageous Steve.  Get yo ass in the gym.  I don&#039;t think your chubby but damn, that&#039;s a big ol waste of money.  Becoming strong simply can&#039;t hurt.  AND also, I&#039;m always checkin everybody out at the gym, ever fancied picking up a date there?</description>

		<description>Dude I told you like three years ago you can&#039;t do the Friend into Girlfriend thing.Girls need to know that they are wanted, you have to make your intentions clear almost immediately.

Oh and I vote try to help the PBM dude. He needs it badly, he&#039;s a cosmic schmuck. You know the kind of guy that the whole of creation is a little worse off for having.</description>

		<description>1) steve, i never thought of you as a chubbers, but then again, i dont pay attention to dudes bodies, so that could be it. but if you wanna do GTL days, im down. (if you dont know what gtl is, watch jersey shore)

2) as for Jess&#039;s comment, she is half right. shes says the gym is a 2 birds in one stone... maybe it might be true for her, but 9 out of 10 girls who go to the gym dont go to get hit on, maybe shes one who goes for attention and what not, but those arent the girls you are looking for anyways. girls go to workout because they dont feel confident with themselves and want to make themselves better. they go there wearing shit clothes, no makeup and try to better themselves just like dudes go for. sure you might find a good girl every now and them at the gym who is worth it, but more or less, you should stay away from them. her second half is completely true though, you dont have a friendship and turn it into a relationship, its too hard to do that. you take a relationship and turn it into a great friendship. i know she used different words, but you go out, meet some people, have fun, hook up with a broad, and make something out of that. its a hell of a lot easier that way.</description>

		<description>Hey Steve!  If it&#039;s any help, I&#039;ve never been able to successfully transition a &quot;friend&quot; type to a &quot;romantic&quot; type.  What worked for me long term was dating a guy I&#039;d never met or heard of before, getting to know him under the pretext of &quot;dating&quot;, and developing a deep friendship from that.  It&#039;s different, but he&#039;s my best friend AND my partner now, and they both developed together instead of one before the other.  You&#039;ve had successful relationships before, so I guess it can work either way and everybody is different.  Just my two cents.  Good luck!  Oh yeah, ditch the helping of PB Mill.  Waste of time!</description>

		<description>Dude, get to the gym. There are also women there, so it&#039;s like killing 2 birds with one stone. Girls want a guy who looks good, no matter what we say. So give it a shot - it can&#039;t hurt your chances, just your muscles. Beauty is pain... beauty will get you laid... so pain will get you laid. Write that down.

And like I told you in Tucson, you should aim to simply get laid. Stop trying to be friends with everyone... you clearly need the practice of disconnecting your friendliness from your dating objectives. Just like you have your real personality and your blogger personality, try to be the confident, sexy Steven that all the girls want to be seduced by... and leave the geeky, single, friend-zone Stevie at home. Just practice and see what happens - you probably aren&#039;t going to get less laid, right?

And I still love your blog. You&#039;re a funny motherfucker.

		<description>In regards to Logan&#039;s comment, that was hilarious.

In regards to Elissa&#039;s comment: I would point out she said he resembled a football player. Steve, I disagree with her. Confidence is important, and I say this because I care enough to tell it to you straight -- has anyone ever confused you for a linebacker? I am just saying. The husky thing works on some guys, not everyone. Not because of confidence but because of stature and build. Sexiness is subjective I suppose but here is a video about attractiveness that makes some good points

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioU8adM0BbY

I can kind of see how the linebacker thing is attractive on SOME guys, however not all women/hot women like the linebacker type. However, if you ask the majority of women/hot women if a fit body/abs are sexy they would say yes. Exercise is GOOD for you, releases endorphins, and if you have abs of steel and or awesome arms, I am pretty sure you will have no trouble finding a date/suitable women to mate/fall in love with. Furthermore, working out will give you confidence because you will feel sexier and that is attractive in and of itself. It is a win-win if you work out. You have an awesome smile, are hilarious, seem to be hard working and kindhearted, so if you amp up the sexiness you will have NO TROUBLE finding attractive women to have a friendship/relationship/eventually family with.

The best relationships do begin with friendships, however you need the spark which comes from physical attraction as well. If you can get that going to where you know you look good, along with the confidence and courage to go after the women you want, you will have more opportunities to find the woman of your dreams :)</description>

		<description>Steve. I need to pay you for making me laugh so hard. Really, I feel as though I owe you something for the time you&#039;ve spent working hard which has resulted in the brightening of my day and lifting of my spirits. Keep the blogs coming!

As far as the PB Millionaire goes (PBM for short), if you can save the blogs that you have written about him -- do it, back them up and erase them from the public domain. I think it is AWESOME that you want to help the PB Millionaire with his image. Just make some stipulations to removing the blogs.
Someone with a bad wardrobe may not realize they need a make-over unless people point it out. That sounds harsh but we don&#039;t all have Grandma&#039;s/Mom&#039;s who are fashion mavens and or an innate sense of style. Usually people who feel they are lacking in the fashion dept. seek help, or grow into their style eventually. However, I don&#039;t see the PBM growing into an awesome personality without assistance. I wonder if he even realizes that he needs an image makeover. Due to the fact that he has yes-women &quot;working&quot; for him, I&#039;d say he has no practical gauges of a) charismatic behavior, and b) behavior that is of any redeeming quality whatsoever. He may have some business acumen, but people skills? It is not rocket science to become well liked, you *Steve* do both (in regards to the rocket science, I&#039;ll say engineering is close enough).
I am not saying you must be a person with good character to be well liked and adored by many (i.e. Brittany Spears *Someone that I do not hate, but who is an example of someone with less than exemplary behavior*), I am just saying that if you have those qualities of altruism innately, it makes it hard for most people not to like you (i.e. Mother Theresa, Single Steve). So since he has (most likely) nothing but boobs working for him, I am in support of him hiring you to become his personal life coach/image manager under two conditions:

1) If he tells you what he thinks of what you wrote in the blogs...
   a) Can he handle your *constructive* criticism and
   b) What does he plan to do about what his actions seem to show of him as a human being

2) That you will remove the blogs if he seriously develops a noble cause somewhere in the mix of what I perceive as his main goals of being a celebrity (in the same vein as Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian), of being around &quot;hot&quot; women, and of &quot;partying&quot; with people

If you emphasize your role as a person with community service experience who would like to see the PB Millionaire do good with his time, affluence and (semi) influence I think you can convince him and his &quot;team&quot; to work with you. Why not start a PBM non-profit?

The PB Millionaire is a tough case. I suppose you could do damage control for the goals as I perceive them to be of the current PBM, however is there any way we can wake him up to the idea of becoming a person who&#039;s life doesn&#039;t need the PR help because his goals are philanthropic instead of self-gratifying? If he does this, though he may be awkward, he may be less disgusting to watch.

Keep us updated Steve!</description>
