The vision of a single entrepreneurial man:

1. What do you want to accomplish in life?
2. What do you want to have in life? (aside from the hottest wife, sickest ride, and sweetest crib?)
3. What do I want to become in life?

"It's not what you do in life that determines your success, wealth and fulfillment...it's how you do it."

How to be a successful single mormon man...

Be aware of your finances (I have tons of money).
Be aware of your relationships (self, others, world...I am focusing on myself at the moment).
The importance of intellectual development (I can't think of anyone I know with a higher IQ than me).

Keep in shape and be healthy. (No worries here...I am ripped)
Spirtual Progress....well I am pretty much the most humble guy ever and very spiritual.

So basically I am doing pretty well because I am pretty much ahead of anyone else I know.

Dating make it or break it

The ultimate test of whether or not you should consider dating someone with the option of possibly marrying them is to take that person on a road trip. Option 1: END it; Option 2: Pursue it; Option 3: keep your options open. There is so much you can discover about a girl in such a trip, and whether or not you should do a second trip. Here are some scenarios with solutions.

Guys this is serious stuff that you should know.

Only let's you ride on the rides where you stay completely dry- Option 1



Always comments on everyone else, what they are wearing, how heavy they are- OPTION 1
Loves the beach and running in the sand- Option 2

Opens the car door and strikes the door of the neighboring car- Option 3



Church music only on a long Sunday drive- Option 1



There are so many other reasons why you should take the "Road Trip Challenge" to determine whether or not that girl is a potential candidate for marriage.

A girl who will not stay up and sneak up to the hot tub with you at the Resort- OPTION 1 & 3

SO guys...take the challenge and do the road trip...you will be amazed at what you discover about your girl. Especially me...with soo many girls trying to catch my attention and always trying to get me to come over, I don't have a lot of time for the challenge, but every other guy...I am sure you have plenty of time with only one or two prospects.

I have been so busy the last few days...mostly just texting like really pretty girls I know and getting my bracket all figured out. I love legal Mormon betting...once a year during March it is just fine to gamble all we want! I didn't have time for FHE last night...I just never seem to make it there, but I did go to the gym and found a treadmill right next to this super hottie...she was running in a really tight outfit! I am thought about getting her phone number, but I am way too cool to pick up on girls at the gym. I am thinking that my oversized chrome wheels should be enough to get any ladies attention. I am all about closing the deal...so many girls just don't realize what they are missing out on.



My sunday school lesson went perfectly...the girls were crying and it was definitely earning me some serious points.

Happy St. Patrick's day... I did not wear any green...just so I could pinch and get pinched...

Sunday School Lesson!

There was no time for anything today! I spent the ENTIRE day preparing a lesson for tomorrow... I had to get the powerpoint all ready to go, plus read almost the entire D&C just to be ready. How else is a single man supposed to impress the single ladies in the ward if he doesn't have a perfect lesson. SO no dates tonight, but last night I did hang out with this really cool girl...bomb testimony and rockin bod...Provo is just full of all of these amazing hotties. I don't know if they realize what they are missing out on with this eligible bachelor (I mean I am not EQP or anything), but someday some girl is going to fall for this hot mormon masculine charm. I can't stay up any later, church starts at 9 a.m. and I have to be atleast five minutes late, you know, so I can get the BEST seats.

The Trial of the Single Mormon Man,

by D. Bell

This post is inspired by recent events and discussions. By “trial” I don’t mean adversity; I think we can all guess what the greatest source of adversity in the life of the Single Mormon Man is (hint: it rhymes with jelibacy). Rather, by “trial” I mean a legal proceeding to determine a party’s guilt or innocence of a certain charge.

Because I happen to be a Single Mormon Man (SMM), I frequently hear a variety of charges leveled against the SMM (most often by the Single Mormon Woman, who, in this context, serves as the self-appointed judge, jury, and executioner; she is joined in her accusations by bishops of singles wards, anxious mothers and fathers, and the occasional GA).

I thought it might be helpful to open this discussion in the hopes of establishing just what, exactly, are the principal charges being levied against the SMM; this, in turn, will enable the SMM to defend himself, and where appropriate, to reform. To get the ball rolling, here are a few of the counts of wrongdoing of which I often hear the SMM accused:

1. The SMM doesn’t date enough. He just wants to hang out.

2. The SMM dates too much. He’s dating everything with a pulse.

3. The SMM is a commitment-phobic menace who can only be convinced to marry by the barrel of a gun.

4. The SMM is a marriage-crazed fiend, programmed by his mission president to find and marry a girl within a week of the first date.

5. The SMM expects nothing less than perfection of a girl — beauty, brains, spirituality, piano-playing prowess.

6. The SMM just wants a docile, doe-eyed little thing.

7. The SMM is inactive, addicted to pornography, and watches vulgar TV shows.

8. The SMM is self-righteous, pharisaical, judgemental, and Manichean.

9. The SMM is spineless.

10. The SMM is patriarchal and dominating.

11. The SMM is shiftless and apathetic.

12. The SMM is obsessed with money and drunk with ambition.

Menace continues...Weddings!

I am sure you have been to a wedding and wondered who that "guy" was by himself following the groom around...maybe when you were younger there might have been a group of those "guys," well now once you are over 25...you may find yourself that only guy who is just hanging out at another wedding...that is not his own. Here is a perfect example...my former roommates wedding...now fortunately the wives were not invited into the picture, so it is harder to spot the single guy, but there I am hanging out alone at the top of those famous Temple stairs...there is always one or two at every wedding.

What women are looking for...or men...or whoever.

I cross paths with a lot of beautiful women, and since my personal beauty is not sufficient to win them over, and apparently my brains, Lexus, or anything else is enough, there must be something either wrong with me...or all of them. Maybe they are all looking for short, stubby, and ugly? The picture above is the stunned look of a man who has the blank stare of confusion in capturing the attention of a wandering eligible female.

Who knows, but let a menace to society begin. What do men find to keep them company when they are single...well for starters, things with alphanumeric titles, sports, and phones with large touchscreens (go figure).


Here are my two examples of alphanumeric combos found on the back of my cars. My phone is also typical of a mid-twenties single man hoping to impress the ladies with email and internet!

Everyone has a blog!

I am 25, LDS, and SINGLE...so no wife to blog for me! All of my sisters, sisters-in-law, wives of friends, moms of friends, grandmas of friends, blog the day to no end. I do not have a wife and decided that it was time for me to blog and represent the menaces to society-us single men.
There you have it...no wedding ring-or any ring at that. I can answer "yes" to most questions, like college graduate, working, own a car(well two), go to church, but when the married questions arises...it's a definitive "no" so why so unblessed!
