eHarmony

Does eHarmony work?  I have a lot of single friends on it.  I know one couple that got married from it.  That's about it.  Saw this article about eHarmony...  Does their algorithm work?  Like OkC, a lot of the questions are answered by the users.  So, let's say a guy believes he's adventurous, but he's really not.  That would impact the compatibility factor, wouldn't it?   However, eHarmony does expose users to a wide range of people you know are single (and basics, such as, age, city, etc), that probably wouldn't happen on your standard Friday night barhopping excursion.

Memorial Day

I've completely forgotten what I've named him, but this guy likes to text me on every holiday...he struck again last night.  I haven't talked to him in at least 12 months, probably more like 18 months.

Decided The Brain doesn't deserve any of my time/attention until he does something substantial (like actually ask me out and set a date vs just texting me to see how I am doing; that's just a waste of a text).

Friends And Significant Others

I want my friends to be happy; if having a significant other makes them happy, great.  I must say, when more of my friends are single vs paired up, I don't feel as much pressure to be paired up.  If I didn't have coupled up friends, would I want to find a guy?  The answer is not a strong "Yes." 

Topping This

Unfortunately, I've been giving The Brain some thought.  He's always trying to top this (find a cooler girl than me), fails, and comes around my way.  Yes there are two sides to this:

1. I can be flattered because he always comes around my way
2. I can be annoyed because this has gone on for YEARS and that would imply he thinks I am just okay if he thinks he can top this and fails

I really want to stop thinking about this stuff (usually happens right after I see him, otherwise, out of sight, out of mind) and "go with the flow."  It's not like I am putting my life on hold waiting for him, but I also haven't met any spectacular new guys.

Puzzled

Saw The Brain last night.  Every time I see him, I end up a little puzzled.  What do I want from him?  Do I think he's grown up enough to be good boyfriend/husband material?  Is he someone who I could be happy with if we got back together?  Do I think all these things because he is a fun friend to hang out with and confuse it with something more?

Then other ridiculous thoughts enter my mind, such as, what does he want from me?  That is a pss poor question to ask because what he wants from me does not matter!  I need to figure what I want from him first!

What?

The Brain emailed me on OkC today (which I found to be odd since he has my phone number and my real email address). 

And, Smart Guy texted me AGAIN.  I haven't responded to any of his texts since 2012.

Is there something in the air?

And Again

And again, The Brain texted me an invite to do something with no date or time.  So, no point in responding, but I probably will say, "Okay" and nothing else.  I know my response is most likely infuriating and I don't care.

Happy Mother's Day

As a girl, I wasn' always the nicest person to mom.  It's funny, when I was growing up, I thought mom was silly and not especially wise; turns out I was wrong.  I forget, she wasn't always a mom and probably had her share of ridiculousness, clueless boys, etc.

Oh, Again?

The Brain called me.  Oh, this again?  I wasn't able to pick up the phone and he didn't leave a message.  He must have gone on a horrible date last night...that usually makes him come my way.

Busted!

Busted!  I saw Smart Guy cruising around my neighborhood.  It was 100% him.  He was driving really slowly and had a girl in the car.  Okay, Smart Guy driving around a block from my apartment wouldn't have been that big of a deal IF he actually lived in SF.  Friendly reminder, Smart Guy lives in Silicon Valley.  Also, unless he was looking for parking (which he was not), there was no reason to come off of a major street, to drive on a side street, to then get back on the major street he came from.

I am quite sure he saw me.  I was leaning against a gate while talking on the phone in my neon blue warm up jacket.

Iron Man 3

Saw Iron Man 3 over the weekend.  Tony Stark, swoon, where can I find one of those?

Be Careful

Saw this article a while ago about a guy in NY that is full of it.  Basically, he tells a plethora of lies in order to get women into bed, and it works.  So, remember:

1. Be careful
2. Do NOT send dirty texts and naked photos of yourself to anyone

I know, most people are careful.  I've seen enough naked photos from my guy friends to know women out there still send naked photos, lots of them.
