Dating Drama

Can I just be frank and say that I HATE dating! Hate... HATE! Well, maybe it's not dating itself I hate... Just the flaky people that I end up going on dates with.

You know, I date quite a bit... and you'd think that I would finally date someone decent who can actually communicate and not totally flake out; but no. It really really blows my mind.

I'm DEFINITELY not one of those guys who walks around lamenting about how their life sucks because they are single. I actually like being single. There are too many great things going on in my life and my relationship status doesn't define me what-so-ever. I'm a very independent person who has many passions in life and tons of awesome friends. But, as many chronically single people get, I occasionally get down about it.

All my friends always tell me what a great catch I am and how they are surprised I've managed to remain single for so long... Maybe they're just blowing smoke up my ass or who knows what it is. Whatever the case, I'm definitely very happy with my life and where it is going. If the worst thing in my life is a string (albeit, a VERY long string) of bad, but harmless, dating experiences then I consider myself to be very lucky!

And I'm not going to use my famous "I'm done with dating for a while!" line. We all know that's bullshit. As soon as I say that someone who catches my eye shows interest and before you know it I'm in another sucky experience. Oh well.

Here here! I agree completely. Dating pretty much blows! I also really enjoy my single self ... I am always saying "I think that I am a much cooler person when I am single" I like doing my own thing and not having to fit someone elses BS into my life. But ... dating/relationships also have their perks. Like having someone to lean on when you are having a really really shitty time writing your thesis. :(
