I suppose this post title could also be written as follows: Nada Surf, I like what you say. Because I do. Because they say things like this:
They say you have to have somebody
They say you have to be someone's
They say if you're not lonely alone
Boy, then there is something wrong
They nailed it right there. That's exactly how I feel, being a single girl with mostly non-single friends. People are always encouraging me to "meet" their other friends, even when the only thing I have in common with said friend is the fact that we're both single. People think it's weird that I don't have a problem being single. Me, I think it's weird to be in a ho-hum relationship just to avoid being alone. So single I stay, until someone impresses me enough to make me think they'd be worth the time and effort of a relationship.

yup. welcome to the mid-to-late 20's. with almost all of my friends it's people moving in together, or having weddings, even babies. fortunately, i work with a lot of single people... though many are of the "let's go speed dating!" type. honestly though, my parents are the worst- "why don't you join the sierra club? you could meet lots of outdoorsy people [read: single males]!" or "if you got a dog you could go to the dog park and meet other dog people!"
ReplyDeleteOh man - my parents are always, "So, have you made any new Friends yet?" It's "Friends" with a capital F because they mean boyFriends. At least they appear to have caught on to the fact that I'm a serial friend dater. And yes, they read this blog. Hi Mom!
ReplyDeleteI hear you on that too... Not a thing wrong with being single. :) And how awesome was the show last night?? So good.
ReplyDeletep don't count as a ho-hum relationship?
ReplyDeleteP is a good friend, and that's it.
