OK so I like being my own boss - mistress of my own fate - I can pick my own toothpaste, turn out my bedside light when I want to and fart out loud in bed without offending anyone but myself. I like being alone....
But - I am alone. Even when I don't want to be.
The world revolves around pairs - 2 by 2 - even the oddest of people have a significant other - equally odd, often - but often strikingly opposite.
Why am I alone? I'm not totally hideous. I seem to amuse and entertain people when we are in a group - I'm friendly and easy to talk to - but I"m alone.
On dating websites, I get the " I"m pursuing another relationship" message more often than not - which is a polite way of saying " I'm not that into you and I'm nice enough not to say that".
Maybe my standards are too high? But what's the point of having standards if they aren't high? Does anyone have low standards?
Is it too much to ask that someone be able to spell?
Anyway, that's where I am.
I could cuddle up to a plumber or a mechanic - no I couldn't. How snobby of me.
Perhaps there's the rub.
I think I'm too good for some people?
But I know myself and I know I'd be unhappy settling.
So, I am alone.
for now.
