"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.

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

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...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
