Being Single...

I find it hard to believe that the single life can be so ridiculous. I've been divorced for 10 years and have yet to remarry. You know that ole' saying about "Prince Charming"? Yeah, well... he's not who you look for anymore. Today, you look for "The needle in the haystack". If you can find it - it's like finding gold in a treasure box at the bottom of the Sea. However, I don't want to swim that deep and chance my head exploding just to find the right guy. To me... the right person is someone who can still see the daintiness of a woman, the worthiness to go above and beyond to grab her attention and show her how special she is and how much she would add to his life. Okay... now, I'm making up shit... but it sounded good. What happened to the days where things just happened naturally? These day you could meet 5 people and in every meet either you don't like him and he likes you or he doesn't like you and you like him. What's up with that? What is it we think we are "settling" for if we were to go at it mutually and at the same time?? Is anyone ever on the same path? Jeez. All I know is that I'd rather be alone rather than skipping around, holding hands and pretending "this is a great new love".. when all in all, it's something new and it wears off within a week. How sad is that? People tell about themselves and their business way too fast. There is no mystery left for the years to come if you've already had a "Come-to-Jesus" meeting and told your whole life story. It all starts with these online dating ads. You describe yourself in detail, someone is interested... more or less in your picture first and then they read about you. You spark an interest in them because they love your looks and all the positive things you have to say about yourself. There is no mentioning of your ugly flaws in your behavior.. so, there's a great new start. Yeah.. right! So, you email each other over and over again.. until that goes away. "Out with the old, in with the new." And you two never even met!!

Okay, back to the basics... It'll take a mighty big man to find his way to my heart and then I'd literally have to trip over him and land on his face.

The End.
