Went out on a coffee date last week and it just about did me in. I think I'm done looking. I'm sure I'll get the itch again but for now I'm done. DONE. I may have 1-2 residual meet and greets from a couple dudes I've been corresponding with but won't be shocked if neither of them follow through.
This whole process has been draining. I just want to enjoy my summer. I'm busy with work. I ran a half marathon (holla!). I'm getting new headshots and hope to pursue some on-camera work and I'm planning a trip to Italy. That's all I can handle for now.
And honestly, if one more guy that I've met/gone out with re-connects with me to tell me how great I am and that I'll find the one soon initiates this convo I'm gonna lose it. If I was/am so great then why didn't you want to be with me? Yeah....I'm fantastic and you're an ass.
They say once you stop looking is when you'll find the person. Hmm....we'll see if this is the case.
Like Oprah I'm done. Unlike Oprah I will not be holding a big party for myself with Beyonce and Madonna at the United Center. Though something I'll keep in my back pocket.
Do Not Date Me! (there!)

Whatever Dori! It's true what they say, or at least they say it is... or so I hear.
ReplyDeleteDeath row meal of choice: definitely not sushi! I gotta be full when I go, but that's just me.
Btw, it just struck me how funny the picture of me (or you, or anyone) on dungy death row with a pair of chopsticks and a plate of maki rolls. Just a thought, yeah it's one of those nights.
ReplyDeleteAck, Dori, I know this feeling all too well. It's all so frustrating!! WHY is it so easy for some people to meet their s.o. and not for others?? Oh, well, a lot of people settle. (and a lot of people just get damn lucky--I hate those people! lol)
ReplyDeleteI'm on a necessary hiatus myself. I don't know if the "you find them when you're not looking" business is true because I usually get too impatient after about 6 months. Maybe, just maybe I can do it differently this time?
Ryan: What if you had sushi AND a good slice of Chicago style pizza....and a hot fudge sundae with some hot caramel sauce on there? Huh???? I think that's what I'd request. But please keep the pic of me w/chopsticks and many maki in your mind.....that's how I'd want you to remember me.....
ReplyDeleteDiane: I'll be keeping the faith for the both of us! I just need to relax and enjoy, ya know? Enough of this treating dating like a job search. I need to go on dating unemployment for a bit of a respite.
ReplyDeleteI want everyone to be happy!
Interesting combination and yes, I might just try that on death row. What the hell right? In best case scenario, it'd kill me a bit early and I might be smiling even.
ReplyDeleteOkay Dori, I'll keep that image of you in my mind, but I do hope it doesn't come to that... the death row thing I mean.
You and me both, RJ....you and me both....
