It seems these days, other people can put my feelings into words better than I can. Another example if Jeannine Garafalo in The Truth About Cats and Dogs. Near the end she says to Brian:
"It's mentally exhausting feeling bad about something you can't do anything about."
That's how I am feeling these days. I always say I will keep you updated on the progress of my online dating, and alas here it is: it sucks. I tried again for two months and this is what happened: innumerable winks, 10 unique emails/guys in contact, 5 phones numbers, 2 first dates, 0 second dates, and 1 disappointing canceled first date before it even happened. Oh and one quasi-date with a guy I didn't meet online. The result of all of this nonsense and consequently waste of my time...nothing. No new friends, no second or third dates, no boyfriend, nothing, just a big fat waste of my time. All these boys (and I use that term deliberately) either didn't keep their word (by not calling me when they said they would) or told me I was too young or too "kind and gentle" for them. What bullshit! So basically these guys are looking for bitchy old women, right? Well, I'm not that woman and I can't and don't want to pretend to be! There has got to be some good ones out there right? Help me out girls!
Oh, and on a side note, if you just got engaged/married, or know someone who has, please spare me and don't tell me. I don't think that right now I can handle hearing about one more engaged person when I can't even get a second date. I know its selfish, but please bare with me for now.
