i believe you are correct about the "to" but since pda's don't have grammar check i'll be a little less hard on myself. but only a little less.... (your pda had spell check. pretty pathetic.) were i typing my message in a normal e-mail i would have seen the grammatical error and changed it. i look for those green and red lines and choose which to follow and which to ignore. for example, i don't use caps, so i choose to ignore red lines under things like "i", "i'll", i've", etc. in addition, sometimes for emphasis i'll use a sentence fragment, ie "but only a little less...." in those instances i'll ignore the little green lines.
finally, re the use of "no hyphen" between the words under and dog, if you really wanted to put it to me you could have done much better. obviously you couldn't. the full sentence should actually be written:
i want a guy who'll go out on a limb like one of those over-romanticized, under-dog, bad boys adored in most of your hit hollywood movies, but never quite embraced as such in real life.
but instead i wrote:
i want a guy who'll go out on a limb like one of those over romanticized under dog bad boys adored in most of your hit hollywood movies but never quite embraced as such in real life.
i did this because by getting rid of the punctuation the sentence feels out of breath and has a sense of desire. it feels real rather than "written." i'm actually a writer by trade and do things with purpose.
on the other hand, i can't find purpose in spelling curiosity "curiosty" twice.

I'm surprised you don't have more followers , your blog is hilarious. I can only imagine what it must be like to be an attractive single woman trying to date online!
I'm following , keep up the good work!
thank you so much for the compliment. one day i'll have followers... sadly that day will probably be ten years from now when i've actually met my husband on sugardaddie.com (i have to graduate to some website) and have five children. while i don't want any, i'm sure some guy will sucker me into being barefoot and pregnant for 8 years in a row only to be disgusted by my body at the end of it and go off and have an affair with a 27 year old. see what a true skeptic i am? lol.
I can't believe that you let that picture slide: a wife-beater and some kind of mid-yawn thing going on? Now that's impressive.
Won't even touch the "girl" sendoff. Please.
you know, i can't touch on every awful thing i see... my posts would be endless! but it's nice that your comment pointed out the obvious lacking in my correspondence. now readers will know that i feel the picture is as horrendous as his grammar.
"Underdog" is all one word.
THANK YOU!
