My Dating Shero - Have Fun

I have a friend whose date calendar is full. I mean FULL. She is going on dates left and right. Five to Seven a week. So many she sometimes has to cancel. My jaw drops in awe and envy. This woman is on a mission.

Mission: Date by Christmas

If you choose to accept you will have to date like a madwoman. You may meet jerks. You may meet friends. You may meet a man you're interested in. This message will self destruct in three, two, one...

BAM!!!

Okay so I ask my friend, "Damn girl how are you getting all these dates?"
"The internet."
A simple answer. However, that was not good enough for me. Especially since her answer was nothing short of what I was doing. "Well hell I'm on the internet too."
"Well I just decided to have fun."
I paused for a moment to chew that over 'have fun' "Wait, have fun. You mean you've lowered your standards."
"Well,yeah. You can't meet a men, get married, or anything if you don't date."
Roight, Roight. She did have a point there. 'have fun' kept echoing in my mind. What a novel idea. She decides to let go and just have fun and she has dates left and right. Here I am with requirements and nothing to post on my blog.
Have fun

I think I'll try that.

P.S. - She did say she wasn't dropping her height requirement. And by golly neither will I!

Your friend has the right idea. Think about it as having fun and meeting new people. Who can't use a little more fun in their lives... This post almost makes me wish I was in the dating game again... almost... I guess I'll have to settle for just the fun... :-)

What a novel idea?! If only I can let go of the too short, too tall, not funny, walks weird, "i don't know him either (Ms. Millie accent)," attitude, I MIGHT have a date too! =)

Miss ya!

Tell me about it. Saying it is one thing, believing it...completely different.
Have Fun

But hey what can it hurt. You get a free meal or movie out of the deal.

I have dropped my standards and everything and I still don't get asked out. I almost started to wonder if my "cuteness" was failing!! LOL!!
