signs, signs everywhere

my luck with men has done a 180 in the past two weeks or so. several positive interactions with new and old/forgotten guys have helped me change my outlook on dating. phone numbers and compliments have been given and in turn have made me feel better about who i am in relation to the opposite sex. i don't really understand what it is that has sparked this new interest on their part, but it probably has something to do with the fact that i was doing the complete opposite of looking for someone. now don't get me wrong, most of these guys have not been relationship material simply because they aren't my type. but i think that isn't the purpose they were meant to serve. even if for just a brief moment, they made me feel funny, clever and attractive. it's been quite a pleasant change and i think in some ways it's God's way of saying "you're better than you think and should expect as much from a guy." man, is that horribly cocky of me to think God would take time from creating babies and saving lives to say that to me? i hope not. but trust me, the ego is definitely still in check regardless of any new occurrences.

  • ive said this about 45 times the past week, but boys either make us feel 100x better or worse about ourselves (ourselves being woman) and it kind of pisses me off.

    and of course boys adore you. you are wonderful. heeeelloooo. seriously.

    and its not egotistical to think God took time out of 'making babies' to make time for you. time is irrelevant to that crazy man/woman/thing/that/it/what. right?

  • Don't worry jasembera. You know how much boys can mess with a girl's mood? Well, a girl can do the same to a guy. There's no aggonizing like that over the opposite sex.

    Martha, I really think you are just in the category of off the charts and that's why you haven't gotten as much attention as you would sometimes like. Frankly, you just intimidate all the weak guys, and there are only so many awesome people out there...and even fewer that would deserve to be with somebody like you.

    Keep your chin up and your legs together.
