Booty Call

An old friend of mine who I just recently had the pleasure of seeing informed me that her fiancee cheated on her. That night, they broke up, and she will be moving back to her folks out by the time the week is over.

Another friend/past roommate recently broke up with his boyfriend of two years. It was mostly amicable but he still is taking it really hard.

Most people go through phases where either everyone they know is hooked up (including themselves) or where everyone is single (happy about it or otherwise.)

Right now, I'm in single heaven.
I only have one good friend hooked up and it's honestly pretty awesome.

When I was younger, I hated the fact that I was always single. I dreamed of having a boyfriend or hell, just having a kiss.

Once I grew up and realized that I'm not as ugly as I thought, I found out that being single is not about being alone.
Being single is about having at least 4 different men on your roster each weekend.
Being single is about being able to get laid and still flirt with other people.
Being single is about being able to hang out with your friends and not worry that someone out there is missing spending time with you.
Being single is being able to do whatever you want to do, whenever you want to do it.

And with a good support system of friends, who needs a relationship?
Especially when so much drama and fighting lead to the inevitable crash and burn.


While I do not doubt that there are healthy relationships out there and people who are meant to be together.
A really good friend of mine that I've known for damn near 10 years is in a loving marriage and I can't imagine her with anyone else.

But for every one healthy relationship, I get to witness friends and acquaintances in tons more awful, unhealthy relationships filled with lying, backstabbing, and childishness.

I can't believe that my parents got married at 21 years old and have been together for over 25 years.
Shit, I know 32 year olds who aren't ready to get married and probably aren't even ready to lease a fucking car. Too much pressure!

So what's the point of relationships when you know that at your age, you can't take the heat. Get out of the kitchen and get into the bar.


While feelings can get involved and fuck things up, it's a ton easier and more fun when you separate feelings of love and feelings of lust.
Sex is not love. A nice body and flexibility does not a relationship make.


So I hope that all my single friends, whether it's by choice or whether due to a break up, realize that they are sexy, smart, and better than wasting time with people whose maturity level is that of someone who can't barely take care of a goldfish, let alone another human being's feelings.

Now if they can take care of a woman's body, use them for that skill and that skill alone.
Then make sure to leave in the morning before they want to cuddle.
