What is the big friggin' deal about being single, even for long periods of time? I'm not a "dater," what can I say? My relatives now ask at EVERY get-together why I'm not dating someone and when am I gonna "get on it." My new answer for the holiday season: I have better things to do than a guy.  |
When I was single, I doubt anyone questioned my preferences. I think it was because I did have plenty of dates--most of them frog princes I was kissing who had CapitalOne rules... LOL...
I wanted to be in a stable relationship with someone who I loved and who loved me in return. But, later in single life, I found out you have different kinds of dates... I had my Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (a lot of those), Saturday (plenty of those) and Sunday (a few of those) dates. Then I had a entire dry season for a year... That was very difficult for me--especially when I was down for "routine maintenance" early in the morning from Wednesday to Thursday... LOL...
Usually, when loving family members or elders would ask me if I was dating when I was single, I would say "no, but do you know of anyone?" Then I asked "if he was cute and has money?" That usually stopped the questions...
And I got everyone pissed of with me when I eloped and got married to a gentleman very few people knew... It's been 5.5 years now...
