A Hard Man Is Good To Find (Part 2)

So basically. I've ran out of places to find men.
I tried to work out what bases I hadn't covered, let's see....
  • Bars and clubs- No hope in hell here. No matter what anyone tells you, people in clubs are only after one thing; A night of fun. That's all. Even if he makes you breakfast, he's just being polite.

  • Internet dating- Alledgedly this is actually a very successful way to meet someone but again, it's full of so many men wanting again, just a night of fun.
    Also, when you're desperate enough to go to the internet for men think how desperate a man must be to go on the internet for a woman. Doesn't seem so great now does it?

  • Through friends- I'll be honest here, this is sometimes good, especially when you have the time to get to know the person before deciding if it's something you want to take further.
    HOWEVER! In my experience, having friends actively set me up seems to fail and flail. You think your friend knows you? Really? I bet she's just enjoying herself playing cupid.
    Also, what happens when you realise you don't want to take it further and then have to see them everytime you go out with your friend? Tres awkward....

  • Work- I find this is to be one of the Golden places to find someone. Again though, this has major, major flaws to it.
    For one, you have to be accepting you may have to work with that person if things go wrong. Personally though, I think you have enough time to bide to decide if the person is worth this gamble.
    Secondly, in my case, I work in women's retail fashion. There are no men here! And if there are any in our shop, they're buying for their partners. Boo :(

  • School- Who's never found a boyfriend from school? Unfortunately, unless you're at uni or under the age of 18 you're only equivelent to this would be an evening class.
    I've been to an evening class and I can tell you now. Don't bother.

So, to conclude; I can not think of anywhere else that I might be missing. Please enlighten me sweet world? Are we really to believe that we're to find our true love while stuck in the rain waiting for a taxi or that they're one day going to move in next door to us?
I think I have more hope of growing a pair of wings.

I Never Loved Another Person The Way I Loved Myself

I have two completely oposing personalities that are housed in my mind.

Obviously, this makes me sound a little mad but, everyone has an ulter-ego.



That inner voice that always shouts at you to do the opposite of what you’re thinking. The one that urges you to go that step further than you should. And mocks you when you do something stupid.


All those books that urge you to ‘tap into your inner voice’? Don’t do it! It’s a complete con that will release your badgirl side.


This girl, she doesn’t care about credit card bills. She demands the best of everything. Then runs away before she has to face the music.

 
She insists you buy the big box of chocolates and then shames you into eating them all in one sitting before anyone else can find them. Then tells you she still wants dinner.

 
It’s this girl that gets me into trouble. She’s the part of me that’s a sex kitten. Which is really quite unfortunate as the rest of me is just an adult version of my child self.

 
This isn’t to say I’m not interested in being a foxy feline and prowling for men. Just that I’m extremely content playing on my own.

Friends Over Boys

A great friendship is something that’s hard to describe.



There’s a scene from the Sex And The City movie (No, this isn’t all about SATC!) when Carrie, after being jilted, is in Mexico with the girls.


Carrie’s in bed, has been for at least a day and a half. She’s in the dark and she just wants everything to disappear.


Samantha comes in with some food. Sits down and spoon feeds her yoghurt.


It’s almost patronising that Sam is treating her like a child. Making sure she eats, while Carrie looks helpless and worn out.

 But, this is friendship.
When your friend treats you like a child because she loves you as if you were her own child.

She will be there when you’re at your complete worst and want to make the pain go away.


Best yet, she does anything possible to help make the pain go away. Looking after your most basic needs so you can focus your energy on getting through the agony.

Good things come in pairs....?

People always say good things come in pairs.


But. Having been single for a while now (Yes, sex included.) I'm thinking...

What's so wrong with it being, Just me?

So, in tribute to all things that come as, Just One, I give you a small list of these wonderful things.



-A good warm scarf- You can't beat one of these wonderful things to wrap around you when the wind gets cold.

-Mobile phones- You only need one of these little gadgets to help keep your social life in check.

-Your beautful handbag- It's a thing of beauty. Yes, you can have more than one but you don't need more than one at a time :)

-The Statue Of Liberty- She's standing out there, on her own. No one pities Lady Liberty.

-The Buddha- State of enlightenment with just his own mind.

-Umbrella's- These marvelous things keep our hair dry in the wet weather.

Romantic? Perhaps....

I love Romeo and Julliet. I have a tattoo of the words he says when watching her dance with Paris.
'Did my heart love til now? For swear it's sight, For I never saw true beauty til this night.'

Abandoned Buildings

I'm so desperate to go to an abandoned hospital

:D

I found a new gay friend last night. Hurrah!
