He's just not that into you
Good little book. Read it last night. But I must admit that I did not feel so empowered that it changed my life. I mean, I agree with a lot of what was said in the book, but I just may be that because I am not in a relationship nor am I ready to admit that I want a relationship, but I just didn't feel like it changed a lot of my thoughts or perceptions about dating.
Here is my theory, I do not nearly meet enough new people in my day to day living to have a good pool to draw from for possible new boys in my life. When I go out with my friends, I am usually to busy having fun with them to even bother to notice anyone around me (ok, so maybe I notice, but who really want to pick up sketchy people up at clubs and bars.) So, then I am merely left to deal with the pre-exisiting boys (which is first, not healthy, and second, boring).
Finally, I do have to address the issues that I have.
1. Being interested in boys that are totally unavailable (have girlfriends, live in a different states, are totally out of my league)
2. When I happen to find an available boy that could possibly be interested -- i run, even before he has a chance to figure out whether or not he really is interested.
3. Saying that I don't want a relationship that takes too much time or work.
What am I supposed to do about this? Some say that when the right boy comes along, all of that will change. I say, is there only one right boy? Can't there by more than one, and does he have to take so long? Or am I so dense that I need big neon signs that point me in the right direction?
