Why do I read articles about dating, dating studies and relationship crap? It's like my own personal self-doubt created hell...self-induced psyche trauma...you would think I would learn by now! I need a negative Pavlov response or something to stop the behavior.
I’m single and for the most part happy with that situation, or deluding myself…it could be either. There are the, “Is something wrong with me?” days that creep up every now and again, usually linked to hormones, or some random “I’m Almost 30” moment, but so it goes. Then there are the moments where I’m fine and whilst blissfully clicking news sites and internet links I start reading useless studies on dating that pose as real news that tell me things like, “Men go for looks.” Really? Huh, I would have never guessed that. Thank you German scientists! Better yet, links to the perils of online dating…which I should avoid since I half-ass use an online dating site. My favorite was a study filled with terrible statistic for future generations of women who will be unable to marry due to reduced male birthrates. I can’t find the link on that one, but on my honor (take it for what it’s worth) there is such a study and it was DEPRESSING!
Maybe I’ve watched too much Heavy Petting in the City (My special name for the cleaned up for non-cable Sex in the City episodes that start after 11 on th local channels) or read one too many dating articles, but dating advice/media depictions are totally contradictory. I’m supposed to be happy and okay with being single, but then they throw out trite stupid advice that sucks me into reading it and then I get pissed. And why is it always lists of Top 5 dating signs. Is it because the smaller numbers are easier for the desperate to remember or maybe 10 is to hard for trite advice columnists?
Moral of this post: FroggerGirl like every other human on the planet has issues and she needs to stop reading stupid fluff pieces on the internet about dating…or you poor people will be subjected to her dating rants forever, and none of us want that!
