Okay, so here it is..deep thoughts by Amanda. You guys asked for it. Plus, I havn't been utilizing my intelligence this past few months.
I cannot handle the pressure of having to be funny all of the time. Ya, count me in for an ignorant comment at large family functions but the funnyness factor during the last couple weeks of school is something few and far between? I don't get it...
Painful, Utterly Painful.
This would be the words to how I would explain the philosophy of dating.
Much can be said about this topic but I find that the most relevant statement would be that I would likely put my ex-boyfriends (yes, very significant in numbers) in the same catagory as exams; Ya don't realize how stupid you are until they are over.
Are you wondering where this displaced anger comes from? I'm not upset (I'm gonna marry Matt, so I got myself a sure thing) But the whole dating philosphy confuses me.
Get up, go about your day, come home, re shower, make up, get dressed, throw clothes all over the floor in pursuit for the optimum outfit, dig thru shoes to find the best ones, brush, floss, gum for later (not that much later;)) wallet, debit card, directions...
Then you arrive wondering if he's gonna look better than you, if his outfit is too embarassing for the public eye, whether yours is equally as embarassing...
Seriously, this is all so overwhelming!!!
Screw the dating, damn the anxiety and the superficial conversation that ultimately just wants to lead to 2nd base. Please give it to me straight!
Spend time with me on a non-committal basis, laugh with me as my voice raises when I play video games and let me swear occasionally. That's all I ask; Then make a non suspecting move and ask me to marry you.

Yeah... I hate that whole "come home, re shower, make up, get dressed, throw clothes all over the floor in pursuit for the optimum outfit, dig thru shoes to find the best ones..." routine. So, in order to avoid all that... Will you come over and play some baseball?
I love you Alex!!!!!!
When does the deep posting start?
Screw you
:)
In my advanced years, full of wisdom, I've just taken a way more laid back approach to dating. The last time I went out on a couple of dates with a girl, I dressed reasonably well and made sure I shaved, and that's about it; I didn't feel like obsessing over how I looked or where we were going or what people would think. I'd like to have everything feel as comfortable and natural as possible, rather than try to put on a show.
With looks like yours Terry, you have no need to primp:)
