I was going to write my last Vegas post tonight but I don't think I have it in me. I'm exhausted and I'm in a foul, self-pitying mood. It's because I feel left out. One of my dearest friends told me tonight that she has just found 'the one'. They met on OkCupid last week and have been inseparable ever since. (Apparently it's just that easy for some people.)
Readers, I give up. I admit I haven't been putting in a big effort to find a guy (online or otherwise) for the past few months, but even when I was putting in the effort I wasn't exactly reeling them in. Last week I remember thinking that I'm kind of enjoying being single and focusing on my work. I wasn't concerned about my lack of dating prospects at all! Apart from having no dating stories for my dating blog, of course.
So this 'boyfriend envy' really came out of nowhere. It's a disgusting feeling to own up to. I can't believe my first thought was 'I'm so happy for you!' but the one right after was 'Yeah but it was my turn.' Isn't that awful?
Maybe I should just get a dog and call it a day.
The other day as two men talked
ReplyDeleteI heard one say, "This road is rough.
And I don't know if I'll make it through."
Then the other turned and said
"Stay your course for just ahead
The place you seek is sure to come to you."
I've found that when I stop looking, that's when someone comes along that is perfect for me in that moment. Every.single.time.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy being single. If you are miserable single, you'll be miserable as a couple. It sounds like you're having fun. Keep it up. You'll meet someone soon enough. Blah blah insert more cliche statements here! But it's true. Xo
ReplyDeleteThey've been dating a week.
ReplyDeleteHang in there and stay persistent. A great partner is searching for you too! Looking forward to hearing about the interacial date! Have one coming up myself.
