My sad Life.....

So I've pretty much decided that I'm going to die an old spinster. This decision is not by choice but really by an outside force called boys. Currently I am not a huge fan of them. I always get the lets just be friends talk. You know the one. You're fun and cute and really nice but I think its best if we just stay friends. Okay first of all that kind of puts a wrench in the whole friends situation. It just a nice way of saying I don't like you so lets be awkward friends who when they see each other use a few awkward how are you? and what have you been up too? To me that is not friendship.... Friendship is when you can just call to talk to the person and there are no weird moments.. Also when you can have comfortable silences. You can act like a total nerd and they don't care because either A: they are doing it with you or B: they have seen you act like that before and are quite used to it. This is friendship to me. Guys who say lets be friends and we can still hang out, i mean its a noble idea but it sometimes would have been better to just be friends from the get go so you don't have to have this wonderful talk. Maybe I under-think stuff to much but I am the type of person who always puts friendship first and then if something happens you'll always be friends. Well anyways this is why I'm going to be like Captain Hook, not that I'm going to feed my right hand to a croc, but i'm going to be old and alone. Maybe I'll become a pirate and just pillage and not have a care in the world. That sounds good.

Jenni B, don't give up so soon. You are way to awesome. Although I did get a chuckle out of this simply because at times in my life I could definately relate.

Jenni--if there ever was a person that could relate it would totally be me, and you couldn't have put into words more clearly what everyone thinks. Course, you do have the advantage in the fact that guys obviously at least talk to you. I feel as though I'm doomed to single life forever. I know it's easy for everyone to say "Don't Worry" "You're amazing" "It's their loss" so I won't (But those are all true) Just know that I know exactly what you mean. I'm pretty much the queen of that world. Just keep being the Totally Awesome person that you are! In the words (of some group) "You can't hurry love"
