It’s been pointed out to me recently that my perspective on the dating world is often sought out. This came as a bit of a shock. Not that I haven’t noticed the occasional whining question of how do you handle this or what do I do about that. It just seems pointless to me. I’m the girl who gets told “you’ve dated everybody!” and asked “why aren’t you married yet?” My success when it comes to the opposite sex has been limited. At least, that’s what I think as I sit here alone under my blanket and blog. Like some sad character from an SNL sketch.
Anyway, despite what I would perceive as my apparent failure in the dating realm, there is one thing I have always been good at. Giving my opinion. No frills or fancies and no softening anything up. I’ve always been here with the hard line. There’s no point in trying to make people feel better in the moment if it only hurts them in the long run, is there? I guess my constant willingness to share my thoughts sometimes makes the people around me retreat, but there are the few people who find me…if not refreshing, well then at least illuminating.
And what on this planet do I have more to say about than the dating world? For people like me (single people, that is) it drives our lives! I mean sure; success, grades, paychecks, all of that matters. We have to find some way to live, but love…well that’s what we end up living for. That’s why I, and just about every girl I know, enter a room and scope it out immediately for attractive men. We can’t help it! It’s built into us to seek for somebody to love! Unfortunately, on that road there are the inevitable complications. That’s when we end up sitting around with our best friends and asking over and over again…”Why?”
I’m not a grandmaster of all knowledge. I don’t claim to know much, really. But once a week I’ll be getting on my blog to share my opinions based on the small knowledge I do have. I hope you’ll all enjoy!
