Dating Games

I haven't written anything in awhile because I've thrown myself back into the dating pool and it's been..

Interesting to say the least. In the past two weeks I've shaken off flaky selfish men and opening myself up to something new. 

I forgot how hard dating is.

Seriously, dating in Las Vegas is tougher than dating anywhere else I think.

The guys here are extremely shady.

For example, I gave my number to a guy downtown last weekend.

He was cute and flirty and had a really good job so I figured I would give it a shot.

I gave him my number but as I was entering it into his phone a text from a girl with a little heart next to her name popped up. Ok….

He texted me the next day, telling me I'm cute as fuck, and I ask him..

"So.. I should have asked before I gave you my number but are you single?"

"No I'm taken"

……

WHY ARE YOU TEXTING ME THEN?

This is what I deal with on a day to day basis you guys.

However I'm remaining optimistic and following my friends guide..

Start at the top to make sure he doesn't have a receding hairline then look down to his face and if he has a look of bewilderment then forget it because he doesn't know what he wants in life.

(Apparently I tend to date guys with receding hairlines and that needs to stop)

Wish me luck guys.

I'm going to need it.

Single

I love this man. A lot.

Which is why we both decided to end our relationship... for now.

Confused?

Absence can make the heart grow fonder but it can also cause a lot of stress...

Specially when you aren't sure where either of you are geographically destined and even more concerning, not knowing WHEN you will be together again.

I had a fantastic time on my trip, we had a great time together.

We realized if we were able to just be together, things would be easier.

But that's not the case right now...

So instead of having our relationship head towards a cliff, we decided to put it on the back burner.

We still talk. We still love each other. We just need to each get things sorted out in our own lives and focus on other things.

But it's nice to have a breakup that ends with some hope. And that's pretty quiet... Changing your Facebook relationship status when it's set to "Only Me" is like ripping off a bandaid and not having all the pain and backlash follow.

So yes....

I'm a single lady.

And I'm ok with that.
