So, I hate to sound like a broken record but this is the worst time of year to be single. We all know the reasons why. Don't even get me started on New Years. All the holiday parties, all the family wondering what you're up to, where's your boyfriend? I think by now they know I'm perpetually single. I've only brought one boy home since high school and I don't hear anyone banging down my door to kiss me at midnight. I'm beginning to think that I'm the girl you date before you find the love of your life. I can think of at least two boys who I've dated recently who are now in committed long term relationships. What was it about me that wasn't relationship worthy? I ask this question all the time and I'm starting to get annoyed with myself. And it's not just me. I know other perfectly normal, good looking, smart girls with the same problem. It's like you have to lower your standards to find a man and keep a man. Well, I refuse to settle. I refuse to have a typical life. Love and otherwise. I will not marry and settle down with children to fullfil some society norm. What a boring hell that seems to me. To be young, single and child free, merry Christmas to me!
