Update...D-Day...

sooo....I was all optimistic last time we talked about Valentine's day...clearly that was before I was dumped on valentines day...not with words...or text..or even a post it...by being totally ignored and blown off...so yes, I suppose you could say I'm a little more pessimistic now. Who does that? Who dates someone for TWO months then just disappears without even enough respect to say "hey kid, it's been fun but I gotta jet..." Just to be disrespectful enough to not say anything...WHAT!!??!! Seriously guys, if you didn't have more respect for me than that to begin with, WHY WERE YOU DATING ME IN THE FIRST PLACE?? So I move on, I don't hear anything for over two weeks...and then I get this long...rambling, very grammatically incorrect FB message that really doesn't make much sense or tell me anything...I'm sorry buddy...but after TWO weeks of nothing I've morned your loss and started to move on..
I mean honestly, what was I supposed to think when I didn't hear ANYTHING for two weeks, that we were together and better than ever?? I'm a reasonable gal, if you had said, hey I need some time/space two weeks ago and then disappeared, FINE. But if you disappear and don't tell me ANYTHING...Game over. Since when is communication, even on the elementary level, such a huge thing to ask? Where are the attractive, literate, grammatically competent, men who are able to talk and discuss things in life?? I wish one would find me, or for that matter club me on the head and take me to dinner. The single gals life is a dangerous one.

V-day or D-day?

Being a somewhat, make that rather, sarcastic person, I can understand peoples "peeves" about v-day commercialism. However, why is everyone so hostile about it?? Just because it's increasingly commercialized doesn't mean you can't still enjoy it. And while yes, you should let your loved ones know EVERYDAY that you love them and they're appreciated, there's no reason why you can't have a special day to celebrate that love. Why is having a day to appreciate it such a bad thing? It's not! I don't buy into the whole "you must buy me flowers and chocolates" routine, but it certainly is a nice gesture. It does not, however, make up for being a crappy friend or significant other all year...but if you are appreciative all the time, it's like finding out the jeans you were going to buy anyway were on clearance and not marked at the register. EXTRA WIN!
