LAST TO KNOW
Artist: Human Nature

Verse 1
Where does love go
When you're not in love?
How does it feel when nobody wants it?
Tell me, does it float around
Like a little lost cloud
When a heart is not it's home?
What does love do
When it's not being used?
Feeling like it just don't belong
Tell me, is it laying awake in the middle of the night
Just thinking 'bout what went wrong?
'Cause when I look in your eyes
It's just not there
When I hunger for affection
The cupboard is bear
I don't know why I keep holding on
When love's got the message and it's already gone
Chorus
Why am I always the last to know?
Tell me why is it always me alone
Still dancing when the party's over
Why am I always the last to see?
Just a fool who believes you're still in love with me
Even love can see it's over
I'm always the last to know
Verse 2
What do I do
'Till I'm back on my feet
Do I hang around and try to pretend?
That I'm really over you
And it won't take long
'Till love says it's my turn again
'Cause when I look in your eyes
It's just not there
When I hunger for affection
The cupboard is bear
I don't know why I keep holding on
When love's got the message and it's already gone
Chorus
Why am I always the last to know?
Tell me why is it always me alone
Still dancing when the party's over
Why am I always the last to see?
Just a fool who believes you're still in love with me
Even love can see it's over
I'm always the last to know
The next time I fall
I'll be taking my time
To find out if her heart is mine
Chorus
Why am I always the last to know?
Tell me why is it always me alone
Still dancing when the party's over
Why am I always the last to see?
Just a fool who believes you're still in love with me
Even love can see it's over
I'm always the last to know

NICE GUYS FINISH LAST….
***********************************************************
A wise man once told me, "As a man, you have to die once in order to live." I never fully appreciated his advice, nor did I understand it until I experienced it firsthand. From that time on, I understood the origins of the Jerk vs. Nice Guy battle.
You may be asking yourself, "What in the world is this guy talking about?"
Well, I'm referring to the widely known fact that women habitually date men that are jerks while the "nice" guys are often left twiddling their thumbs in solitary. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Figuratively speaking, in order for a man to enjoy the company of women and be able to seduce them, his inner nice guy must first die through heartache.
It is at this point that his inner “Bad Boy” surfaces and goes on the prowl.
Any man that has experienced true love, only to have his heart crushed by the woman that he thought he would spend his life with, will understand what I am talking about.
A man that has never experienced the heartache of being burned by the one person he really trusted probably won't understand my commentary.
In any case, it is important to understand why nice guys finish last and why they probably always will.
‘TO DIE’
Contrary to what most women think, men are interested in successful relationships.
Most men will never pass up the chance to date the woman of their dreams.
In fact, when a man does encounter this rarity of a woman, his passion gets the better of him.
The thoughts that race through his mind are something along the lines of, "This woman is a keeper. I'm going to treat her right and do all I can to make her happy."
The only problem with being the nice guy is that you also become the boring, predictable guy. The excitement of the seduction process begins to fade for the woman because she has what she wants and doesn't have to do any chasing.
Eventually the woman starts losing interest and before you know it, her eyes start to wander.
In the end, she'll look for a new man who will bring excitement back into her life by being the "new and improved" challenge.
Pursuit and excitement usually stem from selfish attitudes, much like the “Bad Boy” who doesn't care about anyone but himself. The “Nice Guy” will be left heartbroken and will start wondering what in the world he did wrong.
It's at this point that men begin to realize that most women generally don't know what they want from us.
Evidently, being the “Nice Guy” certainly doesn't help. The conclusion of the aforementioned scenario? The death of the “Nice Guy” persona. So that's the life and death of the nice guy and, as a result, "Mr. Nice" is resurrected into "Mr. Jerk".
‘TO LIVE’
As long as “Nice Guys” continue to get burned, there will always be a healthy supply of new jerks on the horizon to provide the dose of misery that women seem to yearn for.
Eventually (often quite quickly), these nice guys will realize what type of man women actually want.
The result is something that snaps inside of them as they begin to mimic the jerks that most women seem to pursue incessantly.
To become that kind of man, the charade must be taken to the extreme, which involves acting like a selfish person that has no regard for other people's feelings.
This amounts to a jerk that will say anything to get a woman into bed. The jerk will furnish her with tons of roller coaster emotions and once he has sex with her, he'll dump her. Why? Because he feels vengeful and wants to burn women the same way he was burned.
Remember; once you get burned, don't STOP playing with fire -- you TAME the flame.
So when women inadvertently give life to these jerks, they are really shooting themselves in the feet. That's the life and legacy of jerks everywhere.
‘A BALANCED CHARACTER’
If “Nice Guys” are what women really want, then why is it that most nice guys are single? Why is it that we constantly hear stories about women dating big jerks that took them for a ride -- literally?
The fact is that women generally don't want “Nice Guys”, or maybe they're too busy chasing after jerks to realize that they do. Why? Because women act on impulse and emotion rather than fact. Who do you suppose brings out these same irrepressible emotions in women? The jerks, of course.
So what does this all add up to?
No one wants to get hurt, but in the same instance, no one wants to be perceived as a jerk either. That is why it's important to have a balanced attitude towards relationships. A man has to be able to court a woman, amuse her and excite her while continuously remaining a challenge.
In other words, be nice to women, but remember this from my experience. Remember who comes first in life; you, your irreplaceable family and friends, and then your woman. Women CAN and WILL come and go but friends and family will always be there.
