| Anchorage in August: Things Looking up Due to Terrific Expectations |
| 05.22.09 | |
For one, I couldn’t characterize myself as pleasantly comfortable being bored with most men (who isn’t?) and be 100% truthful. Even then, I’m not unhappy in that way, either. I merely suggest it in this blog as an ear-catching piece of info foreshadowing what I am prepared to discuss honestly.
A week ago today yours truly was talking to Trisha, thinking of buying a membership to a dating service for Phoenix singles. You prolly couldn’t guess that, I sit to the blogosphere as a fully satisfied member of the dating service. Seriously, it’s true. I like it! If you know me at all, perhaps you’re thinkin’, “You got some ’splainin to do, Lucy!”
Here’s how it went down, I noticed these Great Expectations Reviews and liked what I saw. They’re for the honest singles who think dating doesn’t have to be so frivolous and stupid.
‘Cause I’d never been a fan of this silly social phenomenon a lot of singles so aptly entitled “The Dating Experience.” I faced it all the time. Each night people pester, “Are you seeing somebody?” and “You should date!”
“Nonsense,” I reply, smiling ear to ear. “Have you seen what’s out there?”
“Whatever doofus,” they reply. “You haven’t dated in a year, you wouldn’t know!”
Thankfully, that’s my best friend (she’s the best) hah! Patty Holland. She beams reality to my mind to put me back on course. People you can trust to offer perspective. She made a good point, so I signed up.
Coming home to the theme of this post. As I selected from thousands of quality singles for my first Great Expectations date, I realized something true. Over the last year, I hadn’t allowed myself too many figurative great expectations for dating and myself in the serendipitous journey of being alive. Single life has its perks, especially if you use the freedom to date. Holding great expectations does wonders for a caring soul.
