It's just me blathering on about why it doesn't work for me.
It works for a shit-ton of people, but just because I don't like to do origami, it doesn't mean I want it banished from existence.
This is just my honest experience with my attempt at dating the Internet.

I think that's dumb. It's like saying: "stop eating and you'll get full".
See, how do you not look? If you want to play basketball, you don't NOT play basketball! Argh.
I think its all part of the giant conspiracy to attempt and make those of us that would rather not be single ok with not being single.

To be honest, it doesn't totally suck due to anything conventional, I'll just say that it didn't exactly work out as amazingly as it began. And the juicy details of exactly what happened is something I just don't feel the urge to share so much.

I don't do drugs (besides the ol' drink). I have enough energy. And my mischievousness tends to lead me to some level of bliss on its own.
But I think I may have an addiction to interacting with people.
I love it. I love to know about you. I love drunken late night talk-a-thons. I love surprising people with my story. I love being surprised with theirs.

For the last few months I have literally numbed my entire psyche with booze and other shiny objects I could find to help divert my attention.
The problem is when I became single I immediately lost the identity I had clung to for the past four and a half years. I wasn't a "couple" anymore.

I get excited around people. Because of this, I don't need drugs or to get completely bonkers wasted. I can cruise through most of the night on a solid beer high and make it through till quite late. I've just always kind of been that way. Never the sloppy drunk, but always ready to roll.

I've always been so intrigued when girl friends of mine tell stories of getting creeped on facebook.

My first REAL "night out" after becoming single was an astonishing eye-opener. I hadn't gone out and put myself "out there" in years. I certainly wasn't looking for a GF but WAS looking for a bit of freaking attention.

I figured out at an early age that if you're funny, everybody will like you.
Don't be the class clown, be the class comedian. I sometimes think that I might just know what people like to hear, but in my heart I think I actually give a crap. About people. And love to make them feel good.
