Maybe some of you are wondering why I've gone on boyfriend hiatus. Well, part of it is due to the fact that I'm extraordinarily picky. IT's not so much that I have high standards as it is, I know what I want. And, I don't think I should bother with something if I know, from the start, it's not what I want and it won't make me happy. Because why would you want to invest all that time and energy into a relationship that you just know is going to end anyway? (A little pessimistic, I know. But it's true. I mean, wouldn't you want to have like 3 really good boyfriends rather than 27 ex-es?) Anyway, that's not why I'm writing this. I thought I'd offer some advice for those of you who have this strong desire to get with me and be my boyfriend.
First, don't try over the summer. I know it sounds kind of strange because I have all this free time and no classes to worry about and the warm weather means I can wear cute clothes, but stop before you even start. You'll run into the same problem I have every summer. Too many people try, so them I end up dating like 4 people at the same time (not as much as Este, I know. But I'm just not as good as him.) No, that's not a bad thing at all. But when I have 4 options, I can't choose just one. Because inevitably, I wonder if I'm missing out on something from someone else by choosing just one person. And if, for some reason, I do pick just one, it's never really just that person. I'm always looking around. And wouldn't you know it, whenever it seems like you have someone, all the good ones start showing interest and how can you pass that up? Exactly. And then there's the problem (well, it's not my problem, more of yours) with the girls. If you've seen us, you realize, and I don't mean this in a conceited way, but we're hot. People like to look at us. They love to stare. As it happens, we can shut up an entire room and make them all turn their heads to where we're standing. We're just that good. True, most of the people who approach us I wouldn't be interested in anyway, but one day that could change. So with all the time I spend with SSK over the summer (especially this summer) you may want to back off.
Now, don't get discouraged. There's still hope. If you are so desperate, try me when I'm at school. BELIEVE ME, you'll probably have more success. I mean, first and foremost...have you seen Ann Arbor people? My point exactly. I have gone about three months without hearing a single compliment or nice thing. It's enough to drive a girl crazy! There are tons of times when I'm up there that all you have to do is call me beautiful and you can get pretty much whatever you want. It's really that simple. All it takes is a little attention. (and sincerity, of course. I've learned to tell what a genuine compliment and a fake one sound like) Another reason for school? I have my own place. No parents, no curfew, no roommates. Hmmm...
So that's a little advice but I'm going to leave you with a little more philosophy. Maybe it will help things. #1, you can't be jealous. Sounds simple enough but you have to realize that I'm a girl, one considered hot in some respects, who loves sports. I have a lot (and I mean mostly) guy friends. If you can't handle that or you don't like that fact that I'm out with a bunch of guys then you may have to find yourself a different girl.
#2, whatever you do, I get to do. It sounds kind of strange, but I really don't care what you do. But remember, if I let you do it, then I should be able to too. So if you want to get drunk with your friends and hook up with random chicks, then I should be able to get drunk with my girls and have fun with the random guys we meet. It's only fair. (I figure, if you're worthy enough I won't have to put that into action.)
