no ring!

So I'll have to write here. Being unmarried and in my mid-20's, I find myself saying more than every once in a while, "Well... there's probably a reason she's still not married." And even worse, if I find out that she isn't currently seeing anyone, I assume the worst and she moves to the very bottom of my very short list of potential girlfriends. Are you hearing this? Maybe its my thought process... lets say the girl looks interesting...

she's cute. she has a boyfriend.

she's looking at her phone. she's busy.

is that a bookbag? she's probably too young.

...stop...

she's cute. and probably a little crazy.

are those khakis? she's too old.

is that a DMB sticker on her car? no comment.

is she babysitting her niece? It's probably her kid.

...Stop...

she's cute. and she knows it.

why is she not at work? she's unemployed.

Is that an ID badge? She probably hates her job. I don't always want to be dealing with that conversation.

Apple laptop? trying to fit in.

Dell? lame

Sony? Is sony the new apple?

...wow STOP...

Are you hearing this? As I told a friend of mine this week. The plan is to attempt to flirt with enough girls that one finally pulls the trigger and asks ME out.

she's asking if I'd like to hang out sometime...

...

...

I could never be with someone that liberal in her stance on gender roles.

I should have this all figured out by the time I'm 26 though, so no worries.

Did you arrive at this place in error?
