Most who follow me have probably already gathered my closest friends and I are STILL single. So there it is, it's out there..something i'm sure isn't SHOCKING news to you. So what's the deal? Why don't we want to find anyone? Or do we? What do you know?! Why are we not taking up some of these date offers or signing up for a dating site yet? I have talked about the 5 types of guys you meet in 2016, so why can't I find one? Coming from a small town it's even been heard, "Ohhhhh they go out too much, guys don't like that." Yes, I heard it. HELLLLO! Welcome to 2016, what are we SUPPOSED to be doing after a long week? Sit at home alone? I do that on the weeknights. You have to put yourself out there, get out, and enjoy life. I'm definitely not saying drinking is the answer but getting out and having fun, being yourself, and just doing you is a GREAT answer in my book.
The truth is, we would love to find someone. I'm speaking for my friends, myself, and hopefully some other single girls (or bros) who are currently killin' it out there right now too. Yes, I totally think we're killin' it... Don't be fooled, we would absolutely love to find what our married friends and family members have found. We're not trying to put this off, but I guess you could say we aren't trying to rush through this stage of life either. Why settle for dating someone to pass the time until we meet the RIGHT person? I'm still not even sure there IS a RIGHT person yet? Anymore, everyone is different and almost everything is acceptable. There isn't an "in style" and it's hard to find social trends in today's world so there's not necessarily a rule on dating and relationships. I'll meet someone when I meet them. I enjoy the time I have with my friends, family, and even time I have to myself, so in the mean time, I'm going to live it up.
It's definitely challenging sometimes and channels some inner-loneliness considering we're at the age where a lot of our friends are getting married and starting families and we are being reminded that we are alone. My best friends and I are still trucking through terrible dates (if we're lucky) and finding out guys we're into are talking to everyone else too. Nonetheless, I am beyond happy for my friends and their loved ones. It is so inspiring to see so much happiness in each of their lives.
I'm going to start the argument that it's not hard to meet people. The problem is there are too many options. With all the apps and social media people are constantly connected and accessible. You have to be careful. In the last two years, I've learned to not take anyone too seriously. If someone wants to talk to you or be with you, they will make it happen. People are busy, but no one is too busy to make time for something or someone they want to be a part of.
One of the most annoying things as a 'half a decade singlee' is probably all of the people that know someone else that's "single too!" and can't wait to set us up!!!! OMG!!&%*#$ ....Uhhhh did you get set up that way? Did it work? Hell no I don't want to date someone just because they're single too. I appreciate the thought, but I'm doing just fine. Don't feel sorry for us. We're having a bachelorette party two nights a weekend and the worst thing to hear are small pep talks about how we'll meet the right guy at the right time, because I actually forgot about it until you brought it up. I definitely believe you but c'mon! We're having a blast! Sometimes it's even like college but with real-job money. Cha chinggg. And guys, if you're reading this, buy us a drink...not a shot. We're NOT actually in college.
Well, that's all I have for now, friends. I'm gonna go back to taking my cow pics and attempting some more selfies in my hot pink lipstick. Keep being YOU! ---byeeee
