So I am going to assume that we are all somewhat familiar with the ever so popular HBO series that chronicled the lives of 4 single, fabulous women in the energetic New York City. As women we were all fueled by their power, dating advice, and fashion sense. I have to say I never really was into it, but to still say that it never had or still has any affect on my single life would be a lie. I mean who doesn't think on or often reference Carrie's famous articles on love?!
The thing that is missing though is the reality of being single in the city! Especially a booming metropolis such as Amarillo, Texas. Most of the time you forget we live in such a small town, we have great things going for us. Until it comes to our dating! It's like being stuck in fish bowl! Everyone knows everyone, and if you don't know them, your friend will and she will have something to say about them!
Sometimes I wish it were as easy as it seems on TV. Boy meets girl, girl likes boy, they date. Nothing complicated or over calculated. Maybe it is just me, but I feel like dating is the most stressful part of being a single adult. Talk about the added pressure from inquiring friends and family who mean well. Maybe I see it all as too simple. I see dating and finding a good one as something that should just happen. Something natural and organic. Possibly I am naive, and completely shut off to the REAL world of dating, but something inside me says there just has to be more. I have to hope as well that there has to be some guy out there who believes this too.
