Things I Hate About Mormons #1

They be all up in my biznesssss

But seriously. I know I've complained about the older generation before, but they're old. They're busy bodies. Their lives suck so they have to live vicariously through mine. I GET IT. But the my generation needs to get a grip too.

There is nothing I dislike more than people asking me why I'm single and if I'm interested in anyone. Why am I single? I'm single cause none of these boys want to date me. Thanks for rubbing it in. If someone's interested, they need to get to and ask me out. I will let them know, in my own subtle ways, whether they have a chance...over dinner (speaking of which, I think I shook off Sadie Hawkins boy, which is sad cause I could use a free meal). And who I'm interested in? Today a girl asked me, point blank, if there was anyone I was interested. Uhh yeah, person I'm not good friends with. Let me list it for you. And I've chased boys. I chased one hard, feel flat on my face, and didn't really fully get over it till late last year. I haven't chased quite like that again, but I've done the dance of going over to his place, being at the same events, talking to him all the time, meeting his family members, and all to no avail.

The worst part about all of this is it pins my single status on me. Somehow I'm doing something wrong. Yeah, I've shot down a few boys. But as I've made it clear, I'm not gonna settle. But I was nice and we had good dates. I do everything I can to be fun, cute and interesting and it goes largely unappreciated. I've only truly messed up one chance at a relationship, but I was 18 and not really ready for it so I'm fine with that. Since then I've been doing my best, so really no, it's not my fault. Yes I want to be married. But I'm not gonna act like some dumb girl and totally massage some guy's ego just for one date. I can buy my own dinner.

So suck it singles ward. Suck it hard and suck it long.
