"He's Just Not THAT Into You"

Sheesz...did someone really need to write this book? Why couldn't women just be left alone in their lonesome deceiving torture upon themselves. No, really...seriously...we like not knowing the truth and playing games with our own minds. What will we have to talk about with our friends if we can't say, "What do you think he meant by this?" If everytime you have to question a man's motives or make excuses for him, and the answer to everything is simply, "He's just not all that into you"...there will be no glimmer of hope...none whatsoever...a girl won't even be able to fool herself into thinking that she can ever possibly find someone. I know I know I know...the truth hurts, and the truth also sets you free...but you'll have to be very secure in yourself and not prone to beating yourself up in order for the truth to really set you free...otherwise the truth only makes it harder to move on. So, this is supposed to make women raise the bar and set higher standards for themselves on whatever kind of abuse it is that they will and won't allow? What about men just taking responsiblity for their own actions and raising their own set of standards on the way they will or won't allow themselves to behave? Once again, it's up to the women to be the adult for everyone? Thanks a lot to the father's of classification...now everything we do, including our feelings must be classified, catalogued, and shoved into files, neat and organized without any chaos or any other thing that is of human nature.

Well someone must have skipped their morning bagel! Sheesh! (I guess I'll return the book I got your for Christmas then...) LOL
Why? Is that the book you got me? I'm still interested in reading it...I just needed to put in my two cents after watching a very depressing hour of Oprah yesterday.

You are soooo out of touch...this is so old. It's a line from Sex & the City from like last year....it's suppose to be liberating...if people could just be that honest, we'd experience a lot less heart ache, don't ya think? (HA HA)
I know that, dork...I just happened to see an Oprah about it yesterday though. And it's not very liberating because men are still not going to be honest...that was my point...it's still women who have to be the adults and come to the conclusion that "he's just not into you". Not like men are all of sudden going to start being honest and just say it!

Don't you think that most women KNOW when a man's "not that into them?" I mean, really, honestly? You kind of have a red flag, right? It's when a person chooses to ignore that red flag that they get all befuddled, right?

At least that's true with me.
Yes...ignoring, avoiding, those are things that I do. The thing that I'm doing right now. I've been making excuses and ignoring all the little red flags, and I just don't want to admit to myself what the real deal is, but I'm slowly getting there. I'm not giving up, but putting myself out on the "market" and not worrying so much might make things better. Or maybe I should deal with my issues of co-dependence? LOL.

No, no ... because then what would you blog about???
Good point...so I should just let all my psychological problems roar for the sake of blogdom!!! Maybe I should just try to keep it in control when I'm not blogging.

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...
WTF? God, I feel great. I am a typical cancer (please refer back to this ). "At times you will seem to have the greatest love for life, yet at others you can be nothing but a self-pitying mess. You can be pleasant and cheerful, or you can be egotistical and vain." Yep, that's me! So, now comes the part where I have a great love of life. And isn't it sad that it stems from feeling secure that someone likes me? One final down...3 more to go! I can't wait for this semester to be over. It has been really hard. Really it was last Spring semester that was really hard, and almost killed me...and that semester seems to have put me in burnout mode for this past semester. But, next semester is new, and will probably kill me with how busy I'll be since I go back to work full-time in the Spring...but as much as I complain...I like being busy, busy, busy! Off to see Aaron the Beast in a couple of hours. Didn't have time to shave my legs this morning. ...

I just spilled coffee all over my keyboard...

Friday I did it. I went up to where my sister works and took all the testing for their clerical positions. They don't let you apply for any of the jobs until you do the testing so they can see what you qualify for. I qualified for the highest clerical position. Senior Secretary, so I applied for a lot of those. I would really, really like for this job opportunity to work out. It would mean I could stay in SA, I could have lunch with my sister during the week, I would be paid well, and I would have the opportunity to go back to school and get a degree in something a little more specific. What exactly, I don't know. I can specialize my Geography degree more by getting certified in GIS because I'm already mostly there, or I would really like to do something more along the lines of biology, physiology, or maybe even geology. Something with a little more scientific background instead of cultural. Anyhoo...it's a great opportunity. Keep your fingers crossed! After ...
