Japanese Department Store May Want to Look Up the Word ‘Fucking’.

For the love of God, why can I not get a good date? Well, actually, I suppose the date isn’t so bad. It is the part immediately following the date, when the man is supposed to want to call me again. Or God forbid, take me on another one. It would seem that I am the problem here, considering I am the common link between these dates and the not getting a second one. For the life of me, however, I cannot discover what the problem is. Playing the good girl card does NOT get you a second date. When you want to wait to kiss(don’t even think about anything else!) you are labeled a complete prude and will get a text alerting you that he is “glad you met” but he “doesn’t think we are a good match”. If you decide to slut it up a bit( Mom, this means kissing on the first date, that’s all, really) then you will inevitably get a text telling you that he “just doesn’t really have the time to commit to a relationship right now”.

So what happens between being told how adorable you are, and how they would love to see you this weekend, to just never being contacted again? It seems that the only option here is to continue saying yes to dates, but to stop thinking that each date could end up being with “THE ONE”.  Perhaps if I begin setting out for my dates with an attitude that it will be a fun evening but I won’t expect anything, then I will not continue setting myself up for failure, but I don’t want to end up jaded.

For now, I shall continue being me and find someone who likes that person. And hopefully I will like him back.
