Singular Bullshit
|
Singular Bullshit I've been single again a whole 5 days now and am already being reminded of just how much bullshit single people have to wade through. One of last night's shining examples was provided at my favorite bar. Earlier this week, i met a woman there and gave her a ride home, When we got to her house, she invited me in and we sat and drank more. Before anything could get interesting though, she informed me her boyfriend would be home shortly. I didn't really believe her, so i hung around a bit and she wasn't kidding. Once he arrived, i got out of there as the whole situation was just plain uncomfortable. (sorry not into 2 male 3somes) This in itself would have been fairly unremarkable and just another example of striking out, but over the past few days this gal and her boyfriend have started hanging out at my favorite bar every day and to add insult to injury, they seem to have taken a liking to my favorite spot in said bar. Foul! Speaking of last night, at my convention committee meeting is a woman i dated almost a decade ago, we're both single, but both know we are a very bad match (churchmouse vs badboy). Yet she is flirting hot and heavy with me. It's tempting, but i know better. But now i'm concerned about hurting her feelings if i find someone in that circle of people. I also found myself chatting with a gal from this site, who i strongly suspect is the same woman who stood me up on a breakfast date several years ago. I'm still not sure how i'm feeling about that yet. I realize that none of this is big stuff, it's just minor crap. But this minor crap is everywhere and everyday. I can only assume women have to deal with their own measure of this type of bullshit too. This would explain a lot of the jaded attitudes i'm running into. It's a shame there's not some way to skip past all the bullshit. "We are all worms, but i like to think of myself as a glow-worm" - Winston Churchill |

It would actually turn me off to hear about last nights exploits, cumings and goings with other women. When I am with somebody special, I want to feel that I am number 1 on his agenda, even if it is just for that evening. Besides, hearing about last nights exploits makes me wonder about last nights germs. Of course, when at a playplace such as The Green Door or JAP, you are in a different environment and what happens there, stays there.....so to speak. I will admit though.....I do like hearing about, and I will sometimes ask a guy on a first meet to break the ice, what sort of negative experiences they have encountered on here. I then start taking mental notes......LOL!

I third that with Liza and Learning Curve. It amazes me at how much BS is out there in the dating world. I see it on both from women and men. You have a female friend that cries on your shoulder about the multiple men they are seeing and then is confused about what to do. I give my advice and tell them to do the right thing and quit playing guys against each other, but she would rather have guys trying to one-up each other and argue and be jealous. I try to explain that she is playing a game and may just end up the loser in the end. But then again, she is just playing the same game that guys play, but guys usually don't tell you about last nights encounter. They are more secretive. Sorry for my rambling....... I've often wondered about this, as i generally don't post about my sexploits unless they turn bad. "We are all worms, but i like to think of myself as a glow-worm" - Winston Churchill

As a stunned single-ton, I agree with mz. Liza. I always feel like a simpleton in a world of worldly gnomes. I hate lying, but people still shock me with the outragous bs they sling. Thanks for being honest.

Every now and then I feel the need to test my dating skills and abilities. Basically, I call it needing to feel the squish of the bullshit between my toes (YUK!!EWWWWEEEE!)! Which always makes me realize that no matter how old, young, good looking or ugly a man is, there is going to be some level of bullshit to the scheme of things. Once I get a dose of bullshit, I'm good for about six months. I call it "cycling through"...which makes me always realize that I do enjoy my life without the bullshit. Go figure.
