Another One Bites the Dust--Dec. 7, 2005

From my myspace blog:

So my theme song...another one bites the dust...I cannot do relationships. I don't understand dating, I am not good at it, and I am tired of getting my heart broken. In the past year and a half I have gotten divorced, had a huge fight with a guy I was in love with forever which allowed him to meet the love of his life, dated a guy who was so beyond committment phobic that they needed a new word (he has since started dating one of my close friends so I guess he got over his phobia--good for him--that's nice), dated another friend who decided he'd rather date random bar chicks and girls from the internet, dated a cop who thought I was too good looking and intelligent (he actually told the people who set us up that), and a fireman who apparently either died or fell off the earth because he just stopped calling (what is that??? just call and say you don't want to go out anymore--it's okay--be a man!). My ex-husband has a new girlfriend, love of my life obviously new girlfriend (that he's planning on proposing to), ex dating my close friend (let me say that I am a kick ass friend b/c I've actually hung out with both of them!), asshole that I wasted 6 months of my life already has a new girlfriend (was the bed even cold from when I left??? We only broke up 2 weeks before you met her or maybe not ya big cheater), and Fireman...well, who knows, maybe he moved although he has not had any problem checking his match.com profile from wherever he is...

I wouldn't say that I'm bitter. More resigned to my fate as a "setter upper" aka the girl guys date and work all their weird bullshit out on so they then can move on to the girl they want to marry. But it definitely does not make me want to date...anyone....ever again...

Do other people out there share this fate? I like to think of myself as "The Angel of Love" helping others find true happiness...with other people. And if I hear one more time from a married or coupled friend "Don't worry. He's out there. You'll find him." SHUT UP! Maybe he's not out there and that is okay. Everyone couple needs that single female friend they envy because she is unencumbered and gets to travel and have exotic adventures and send their kids cool toys from other countries while they are stuck at home changing shitty diapers. :)

That is my rant for the day. Hope it made you laugh even though, sadly, it's all true...
