I'm glad some people understand what it's like to be single in a crowded room filled with couples, married or otherwise in a relationship, meaningful or not. It's not easy being under scrutiny like you're some bull frog under the microscope. On and on it goes, yes I'm single.I wish i could tell you it's rather complicated, but I hate to break it to you, it's just not. It's single period. So please leave me alone...
So yes, I'll just as well lay it all down to you. We're everywhere. The lonely cashier behind the register, the buxom girl-next-door, the policewoman giving you a bust, the nun, the smart starry-eyed fool in the elevator, the actress, the whore, the cigarette vendor, the career-oriented woman, and the list goes on and on...
It does gets lonely too, but some are just not willing to settle down while some won't settle for anything less.Sometimes it does hurt when you wonder on your own, could there be anyone out there who'd want to hold your hand, give you a squeeze, throw you butterfly kisses, and take all the pain away. Oh believe me, the pain can blind you. But sometimes it's a conscious choice. For what it's worth, they deserve my respect. Different strokes for different folks...
So yes, we're single, not lepers. Don't try to help by fixing us up with so and so. Don't give us empty promises that prince charming will come and claim us in his white horse. Don't patronize. Don't call us names. Just try to be decent, try being our friend. We're fun!Well, at least we are, when we're not bitching around.:)
And this I pray, I hope single won't be such a lonely word, not in my world.:)
