Is Love Avoiding Me
As I took a short cut through the valley behind my house one sunny Sunday last year, I was looking in awe at the dead trees, and the weeds that some people believe to be flowers, and smelling the water in the creek (that I’m am sure comes from the sewers), when a bird crapped on my head. I thought “oh well” just another ordinary day. As I hurried along, I bumped into a acquaintance of mine that I will call Stinky and please don't ask why I call him that, I think the name speaks for itself. As we walked, I related the bird incident, and he replied “take me to the tree that you were standing under, its good luck”. If I had thought for one minute that it was good luck I would have found some dog dirt and rolled around in it, (as you may have figured Stinky really doesn’t have much of a social life, but then again, neither do I).
Our biggest problem is talking to the opposite sex. Stinky can usually make a few vowel sounds, then he has to go away. I’m a little more relaxed since I work with mostly women anyway. I can usually start a conversation with them before I start to shiver and have any confidence suddenly elude me, then I have to politely say I think the boss is calling me.
Stinky feels that women have unreal expectations when it comes to dating, however, I disagree. I really don't think the women suggesting that he have a shower before picking her up is considered “high slandered”. Stinky might be the least washed fellow I know, but he is one of the nicest (nicest not brightest). However, he does sometimes on occasion come up with pretty decent idea's that make a lot of sense, but I'm not sure about this one. “We will join a Dating Site” he yelled out. I said before sometimes he comes up with smart idea's but this wasn't one of those times. He proceeded to inform me that a friend at work gave him the idea(nice friend). “Is this the same friend that leaves deodorant and body wash in your locker”? I asked. “It sure is! He's a very thoughtful person,” (ya right). Stinky said “My friend met a wonderful women on a dating site,” (what women?? the guy he's talking about is gay!) “Why would your gay friend use a dating site to meet women?” I asked, “I think your getting in over your head”. In the end, and after weeks of hiding from Stinky and his crazy idea, I finally decided to give in just to humor him.
As I tried to sleep that night, all I could think about was the last date I had, which had not ended under the best of circumstances. I’m sure the woman I'll call (“bottomless pit”), hadn’t eaten in a week prior to our date and she must have thought I owned an oil well or something! After she had gobbled up several hors d'œuvres, as well as several other side dishes, expensive wine and a double order of lobster, I checked the balance on my credit card, then to my surprise she demanded we order desert! “Desert!?” I quickly reminded her that this was not an all you can eat buffet, she then jumped up called me things I've never heard before and made her way to the door. Like the desperate person I am, I ran after her and asked if she would like to go out with me again, at which time she assaulted me with her hand bag (I guess that meant no!). So I went back to the table and sat by myself looking at the bill she had racked up and wondered if I would be able to get lots of overtime at work next week to pay for it.
I started to have second thoughts about joining a dating site, but since my best friend was counting on it (and knowing he would do anything for me), I decided to go through with it. It turned out to be the best move that we had ever made. Stinky and I both joined a Dating Site, and it wasn’t long before we had responses from some sexy ladies. We were both very nervous and excited to think that we might no longer have to prop up blowup dolls on our couches so the neighbors would see the silhouette and think we actually had lives. Stinky asked me “what should I do to get ready?”I said “just get in the shower, turn that water on, use that bar of soap (you only had it for whole year) and wash your troubles down the drain”, (as well as the dirt and body odor of course).We double dated that evening to lean on each other, and we had a wonderful time. It was a standard dinner and dancing date, but it just went so well. Stinky yanked me aside and that he was going to end up marrying his date because she was so perfect for him. I gave him a brotherly hug, and said “follow your heart,” and he did. She seemed to take to him as well, surprisingly!
Well I don't call him Stinky anymore, (no one does now that he has learned basic hygiene). He is above all, my best friend. Devrone is still with that wonderful women he met on that dating site. This was eight years ago and after dating for several months, they tied the knot. They had one child and are expecting another any time now. As for me, it took a little longer, but I finally found my soul mate, and we are expecting our first child soon. Life is fantastic and it keeps getting better!
Its true what they say, there's someone for everyone. You just have to look in the right place. Some times it just takes someone who cares about you to push you in the right direction . Life is too short and precious to spend it by yourself, wondering what your life would be like if you had done something to find that special person. So if you want to turn around your life then take my advice, and get off your bum and go for it.
Hey, if Stinky and I can do it, so can you! There are so many dating sites out there it is easy to get lost, or waste you time on insignificant ones, but I'll give you a tip, this is the site that me and Stinky used to find the best sites for us and in our opinion its the number one place to find dating sites. So if you are tired of being all alone and want someone to share your life and love with well just follow this link, it will be the best move you ever make.
