THE list

I decided today that I was going to make a list! A list that names off all of the things I want in a man. I know...lists are lame and shouldn't be followed.  But here's how I see it: I have been dating on and off for the past 3 years. I've tried online, meeting through friends, blind dates, reconnecting with old friends, etc.  And so far, not so successful.  Sure I've had fun but in the end, none of them have truly been who I am looking for.  They are either too old,too young, too far away, too busy, too short, too complicated, too bald, too preoccupied, too MARRIED! Whatever the reason, they just haven't been up to par. So that brings me back to the list. I have decided to make a list because I've tried being flexible and open to something other than what I really want.  And look where that's gotten me. Nowhere.

So without further adieu......
