“Hmm, you dismiss her beauty and good nature, yet I would be very much mistaken, if your sex in general, does not think those claims the highest a woman could possess!”
Am I the only sane girl in the world or am I the only
disgusting girl?
My biggest grievance when it comes to girls and making new
friends, besides her apparent love for Marilyn Monroe, is when getting to know
me she asks me if I have a boyfriend. I would love to answer her by saying,
“No! I have a life.” I suppose that is not the best way to start out at a new
job. How is that your way of getting to know someone? She couldn’t have asked,
“What’s your story? What do you want in life? What are your hopes and dreams?”
The girl of whom I speak is not one particular girl, she is
the proverbial girl. She has Marilyn Monroe posters in her room and OK on her
coffee table. She’s never read Jane Austen but “has watched” the Keira Knightly
movie. She was in a Sorority and lets her boyfriend dictate what she wears.
This girl always has a boyfriend, and I continue asking, “How?” While THIS girl
never has a boyfriend and has never had a boyfriend; why?
In my Jane Austen filled head a man says something like
this, “Men of sense, whatever you may say, do not want silly wives!” But
perhaps you will say, these were all written by Jane!
In my real life boys say, “What does she look like?”
Who is this proverbial guy with the proverbial girl? He’s
probably not even worth this whole spiel. He probably wouldn’t even interest
me. He’s probably perfect for her.
Is that all there is to life? To men? Nothing more than
looks and frivolity? Is there any guy out there that is looking for more? Am I
going to have to settle for a divorced or widowed man? Maybe the guy with damaged goods
will have learned what is more important in life.
“Maybe it is our imperfections which make us so perfect for
one another.” ~Emma
To stay single or to not stay single, the latter is not
really an option.
