Friends are good to my silly love life
I have come to the realization that if I am ever to end up with anyone I must become a lesbian.
I have reached this conclusion because my timing with guys is atrocious.
This year, I was so down to stay single and be selfish and only think of me, but then the perfect guy comes along: tall, handsome, is a gentleman, treats me with respect, never offers up a dull conversation, no awkward silence, makes eye contact. No one has treated me the way he has.
So being the girl I hate being I fall into people so easily then like them far toooooooo much so soon.
I get myself all worked up. I gain this new "hope" for something more than a crush or a fling. Of course stuff gets complicated within the individual's life & that "hope" is vanquished.
Metaphor of my love life: A giant elephant [Murphy's Law] crashing down upon a porcelain doll [my hope]
So I shall either become a lesbian or become asexual.

Holy Freaking Young-Adult-Life-Crisis
Hello Interwebs,
So I have come to the sad realization that I am almost 22 and completely put off by the notion of a relationship or even having to come into a "let's get to know each other" situation with the opposite sex for relationship purposes. I mean, seriously, what the hell?
I just attempted to make a POF account and found I could not bring myself to do finish signing up. All the information had been filled out, however, when it came to designating my intent for creating the account... I had none. Even with FB I can't change my "relationship status" to single because firstly, I don't want to advertise that "hey! I'm single, feel free to comment on how lame that is" and secondly, I don't want any of the people on FB to offer up a potential date. Honestly, just stop or I'll remove you from my friend's list, block you and have an eye-twitch spasm any time your name is mentioned thereafter.
This is in part that I am just not ready to get into a relationship, yet I find myself wanting that person to snuggle with just before falling asleep. The other part is that this is the first time in years that I have been single and I finally have time for just me. I'm already terrible at trying to socialize with people I don't know because I find it stupid to ask them the generic "what do you like to do in your spare time? what's your career? what's your goal in life? don't you just think unicorns are the best?" Thinking of myself in that situation where you're literally interrogating the other person seems silly to me as well as awkward. It'd be better if things could just free-flow and the conversation just leads itself, but how the hell can that happen if you don't ask questions? UGH PRESSURE!
On the flip side, I was hoping to finish University, wiggle my way into a career and somehow have a bf/fiance/husband a few years later just to pop out a few mini-me's and pass down my strange to them. This clearly is not going to be happening the way I imagined. It doesn't really help that I am now a "commitment-phobe" and completely untrusting of any potential "bf" type. In sum: I am scared shitless that I will die alone with no offspring to tell me they'll love me no matter how crazy I am or how far up the wall I drive them.
I do and don't want to fall in love but people can't go promising me that they will love me forever because A) people are not immortal and B) some people get alzheimer's so how the hell are they to recall that they promised to love you forever? It does not help that Hollywood movies have built up this idea in my head that the girl who's not looking for a relationship miraculously gets swept off her feet by some dashing new man who has popped out of nowhere being all that she desires and they end up falling in love in THEE most dramatic-rollercoaster way imaginable. In the end she's always happy and you can feel the love leeping off the screen and leaching into your pores so that you have to go reject that overdosage of love into the toilet. Thus, I honestly believe that "love" is a ficticious abstract concept created by Hollywood sadists who enjoy watching people fail at reenacting this concept irl.
Yeah, ok, I am pathetic and just being silly perhaps, but I am experiencing this internal battle between wanting all these "ideals" which Disney and the Family channel has subliminally infused into my brain and my repulsion of all these desires to actually be achieved.

Doris Mae (Stewart)
Beautiful blue eyes slipped away in the night
The sound of her last breath shook the house
All tensions put at ease
All pain wisped away
No longer a captured soul in a broken vessel
She soared through the skies back to her beloved creek
Through the fields of dancing grass in the wind
Up to the endless prairie skies filled with her childhood dreams
"Feeling as fresh as a daisy" - Doris Mae
I miss you terribly, Grandma. Thank you for passing on your titanium strong stubbornness and always giving me little giggles at the end of every visit. Your importance in my life will forever reflect in everything I do. And until the day I die, the memory of you will live strong.

Awesssssssssssss sappy wappy awesome
Dear Interwebs,
Here is a quote
“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before; she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s not perfect - you aren’t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there."
-Bob Marley
and I got it off some girl's facebook page because I creep on everyone... I'm sorry
