Ok, its one of those days. Its one of those frustrating days. Frustrating enough I'm breaking my rule about not posting at work. Its one of those days when I find myself thinking "Man I wish I had a girlfriend."
I hate those days. Especially since I don't really date much. I don't really care much. I know part of it comes from the fact that I keeping getting online adds with gorgeous women that says "Want a Girlfriend?" Its one of those dating websites that have been described as a digital bar. You look at pictures of unobtainable people that will reject you. Not my idea of fun.
I'm generally opposed to dating websites. Way I figure it, the women on there must be lonely and desperate. That's not the kind of women that I want to date. Yet the ads have an appeal. Movies and TV shows are filled with scenes of romance, that also egg singles on to feelings of incompleteness. Its frustrating as can be.
It generally sucks to be single. Especially if you are going to remain that way (at least for a while). You can be brutalized in our culture. Its worse if all your friends are couples.
I like my single life. I like not compromising or sharing. I like having my stuff, because as the man I know if I get married "our stuff" means my stuff gets put in the basement or garage while she gets the house. I like that I can do what I want at the last minute without calling someone for permission. Its wonderful. I enjoy mocking the married men about being whipped.
Yet, the feelings are there today. That's so annoying. So if you're single, here's to you. I'm right there with you.
