That picture there...
That's me and my date.
Good ole Corralejo.
He doesn't ever let me down!
But dating.... now.... in this time...
Sucks.
It's a joke.
YUP.
I said it.
My friend shared this post that was written a year ago by a guy on Facebook and he said " Relationships have been replaced with "talking". Which consist of pointlessly texting and a random phone call here and there. People text or "talk" merely to fill a void when they get bored. Commitment is a rare thing to find. Date nights really don't exist much anymore. Chivalry is pretty much a thing of the past. There's no more opening the truck door for her or going to the front door to pick her up for a date. Today's society cheating has been accepted way more than it should be and people classify it as a mistake. Since it is accepted more people continue to go back to the same person that has cheated on them repeatedly. (Albert Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results, btw.) Feelings don't really matter anymore and it's became a hurt someone before you get hurt kind of world. Cheating or crossing the line has became way too easy with social media. People don't put in the effort that it takes to keep a relationship healthy or work. When things get tough people give up. Relationships have lost its value over the years and they aren't how they are supposed to be anymore. To the girls that say there aren't any good guys left in the world, maybe you should reevaluate the kind of guys you pursue. To the guys that can't find a good girl, I can guarantee that you aren't looking in the right places. "

I'd have to say that I don't agree with the 'chivalry being a thing of the past' and that's just because I happen to know and be around a lot of good ole country folk who open doors and say yes ma'am and take their hats off when they introduce themselves to someone.
I'm still stuck on the "People text or "talk" merely to fill a void when they get bored."
Or how about the "relationships have been replaced with 'talking.' Which consist of pointlessly texting andd a random phone call here and there."
ON. MOTHER. LOVING. POINT.
After becoming a newly single woman and being open to meeting new people and getting to know others, I've learned that dating.....FREAKING SUCKS.
People only want to talk to you when it's convenient for them.
Or what's even better....
PEOPLE ONLY TALK TO YOU WHEN THEY'RE DRUNK!
I get told the most interesting things when someone is drunk...
1.) You're like a unicorn, people like you don't exist.(rolls eyes)
2.) I like you but I'm scared... (rolls eyes)
3.) I don't do relationships. (ROLLS EYES AGAIN)
And you know the old statement goes...."A Drunken Mind Speaks A Sober Heart"
Sooo, what you're saying is you have the balls to say this when you're drunk but not sober.
BUT when you're sober you still want to call me but don't have the guts?
But you're sober so you're not going to make the move and just wait until you're drunk to call me again??
THIS IS GETTING ENTIRELY TOO CONFUSING!!!!
THEN...
I see a video on Facebook today about "How Millennials Will Talk About Love" and y'all... it's so disappointing what this has turned into.
Tender.
Bumble.
Farmers Only.
(Who gets on these sites... not this girl)
Sliding into the DMs....
It's just ridiculous.
Okay, not going to lie.... I did my first SLIDE INTO THAT DM about a month or so ago.
LOL.
But I wasn't weird or creepy about like "Hey just wanted to say you're so beautiful" or "Hey I would love to meet you in person."
It was more like "Hey thanks for the help and it was nice meeting you."
Sliding into someone's DM doesn't have to be creepy.
Say hi. Talk if you must. Exchange numbers. Get to know each other. Go fishing. Lay under the stars and talk for hours.
DO THE DAMN THING.
BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP BEING SCARED TO DATE THE PERSON YOU LIKE.
YES IT IS SCARY.
YES YOU MIGHT GET HURT.
BUT YOU MIGHT FALL IN LOVE
YOU MIGHT HAVE SOME OF THE BEST LAUGHS YOU'VE EVER HAD.
YOU MIGHT HAVE THE BEST CONNECTION WITH THAT PERSON.
YOU MIGHT HAVE FOUND THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE.
Just don't be dumb and lose them because you're scared.
If they text you good morning, you're the first thing they thought of.
If they text you asking how you're doing, they care.
If they offer their help. THEY REALLY CARE.
Not everyone does... so appreciate those that do.
GEEZE.
Dating doesn't have to be this hard.
There's no need for talking then ghosting.
Can we all agree to just stop with the madness... it's getting too confusing!
