All The Happy Relationships
I'm sure there are people out there with happy relationships. I know that many of my friends are in loving relationships and they seem to be having nice lives, but it's been a while since I've been in anything like that. I'm not whining, really. Maybe I'm complaining a little bit, but I'm certainly not feeling sorry for myself. However, I am starting to feel a bit jaded and I'm starting to wonder if it's my destiny to be single. Honestly, I'm quite fine being on my own, in fact, I also wonder if I've become too independent to be in a relationship with someone. However, I keep meeting people on matchmaking sites, just to see what'll happen.
One of the worst things that could happen to someone who makes their living as a writer happened to me recently. Due to a power surge, I now have a broken computer. So, it means that, as much as I'd rather be at home, I've been forced to go to the office to do my writing. That's not bad though. The people at the office are pretty good and it's nice to be around people. There's even a guy at work that claims to have accidentally shaved off all his body hair. I'm not sure how it happened, but it gives you an idea of how zany it can be around here.
One of the perks of getting out of the house is that I'm forced to have more interaction with people than I would normally. I've been going for lunch at this little greasy-spoon around the corner. They make amazing hot-turkey sandwiches, but the real reason I keep going back is that there is a waitress there that's so drop-dead gorgeous, I'm almost speechless every time she walks up to my table.
I'm usually quite amicable and chatty, but there's something about this gal that has thrown me for a bit of a loop. Maybe it's because I'm starting to lose a bit of the self-confidence that I used to posses in spades. Maybe it's because I'm used to having several email conversations about happy relationships with women before I meet them. I'm not sure what it is, but I'm going to ask her out this afternoon, just to see what happens. I'm not planning on this being the relationship to end all relationships, but I am looking forward to going on a date with confidence, so I'm going to give this all I've got.
