There once was a Rhinoceros named Ricky, he was Ricky the Rhinoceros. Ricky was always trying to meet girls. Ricky was girl crazy and was always hanging out with some elephant bimbo or the new giraffe in town. Ricky had a very big problem though. No matter how many leaves he bought the girls or how shiny his horn was none fot he girl would ever go on a second date with ricky. This made Ricky very sad he was crying to his friend Alfred the Ape one day when Alfred finally decided to tell Ricky something he had never told him before. Alfred sat Ricky down and in a very serious tone told Ricky "Your a super duper jerk and no one likes you." Ricky was devastated, "Why"? He quietly asked. "I am always nice and I always buy people lots of stuff and I impress them with my shiny horn." Alfred told Ricky that he should go talk to all of the girls he had gone on dates with and see what they said. Ricky went to the first girl, Patty the Platypus, and asked why she did not call him back. Patty said " All you did was try and impress me with your shiny horn, you never even asked about me." After Patty told him that Ricky went to the next girl, Betty the Baboon, she said "You were so rude, all you did was talk about yourself!" Finally it began to dawn on Ricky that it was not that people did not like him or his horn for that matter but that e could not only talk about himself. Everyone want to be heard and that if he wanted people to like him more he would have to talk about them more. Later that night Ricky went on a date with Darla the Duck. Rather than talking about himself for the whole time Ricky asked her what she thought about things. He asked what she wanted to do with here life. Darla called Ricky back the next day and they went on more dates. Ricky became a better person, always placing others before himself.
