Righting the Courtship: October 2010
http://rightingthecourtship.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Oh No He Didn't! Sunday, October 31, 2010. In the end I went with drunk texting as the mechanism for ending things with Summer Boy. I had started with a simple email on Sunday stating that I thought that whatever was happening between us had run its course. I was too riled up to blow him off entirely, but I thought I’d “take the high road” by ignoring the questionable timing of the CraigsList posts entirely. Oh how he was hurting my pride! Oh how I wanted to scream and shout and stomp! Right He hadn̵...

Righting the Courtship: Slow Motion Man
http://rightingthecourtship.blogspot.com/2011/07/slow-motion-man.html
Wednesday, July 27, 2011. Smart, nice, architect. Moving so slow we have stopped. Still can’t build me love. You know that commercial for Jimmy Dean breakfast snacks where the little kid gets slowed waaaay down by the evil Slow Motion clock guy when he's running around in the gym? Well check it out here. And then get back to reading because that's what appears to have happened with The Architect. So no matter how awesome the custom wine cellar The Architect could have designed for my future single family...

Righting the Courtship: June 2010

I had a lot of dates but I decided to stay home and dye my eyebrows." Andy Warhol. Tuesday, June 29, 2010. For the first time in a long time I find myself not wanting what it is I thought I wanted. It’s a surprising revelation; that after having spent the last year basically dedicated to finding and sustaining a relationship that I no longer want one. If I was part of a pair. It wasn’t a total waste, either. On the contrary, putting that kind of time and energy into dating made me seriously add...I don&#...

Righting the Courtship: September 2010

The Coping Mechanisms of a Thirtysomething. Wednesday, September 29, 2010. The Karaoke King wanted to see me before I went out of town for July 4th weekend so we made plans for lunch on Thursday. During the conversation about when/where to go he insisted on being extremely. Overlooking the obnoxiousness of someone who is so relaxed he can’t even remember being stressed, I genuinely answered his questions. The condensed version went like this:. Alone time. I need a decent amount of alone time in gener...

Righting the Courtship: February 2011
http://rightingthecourtship.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
I Just Met Your Future Husband. Tuesday, February 22, 2011. Recently my cousin sent me an email to ask if I was seeing anyone. She also called me, mid-work day, to ask the same question. Now I almost never answer my cell phone at work, but I picked up because this cousin is getting married soon and I am her MOH. This requires me to be available when I might otherwise not be. He is an adorable 28-year old who is both SUPER cute and very nice. And… most important… he has a full head of hair. Her darling fi...

Righting the Courtship: June 2011
http://rightingthecourtship.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. You know that crazy high you get when you have a great first date? When your mind swims with visions of you and your clearly-soon-to-be-new-boyfriend going on trips and holding hands while strolling about? When you’re so drunk with the promise this new relationship holds that you tell all your girlfriends about it, gushing about all the reasons you like him? He seemed laid back, which is probably a good counterpoint for me, but passionate and opinionated at the same time. We ...

Righting the Courtship: November 2010
http://rightingthecourtship.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
It's All Coming Back to Me Now. Monday, November 29, 2010. I remember what happened with Marathon Guy last year. I kept inviting him to do things and he kept declining without reciprocating invites. I felt like he just wasn’t that interested in me, especially since at first he seemed perfectly capable of suggesting we get together. I remember now because the exact same thing. Huh What do I do now? I do remember him saying something before about having thought that I wasn’t interested in him, that h...

Righting the Courtship: April 2010
http://rightingthecourtship.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Walter, I love you, but sooner or later, you're going to have to face the fact you're a goddamn moron. Friday, April 30, 2010. Duder’s second response sent at approximately 11pm that same night, listed three very good activity date suggestions. Followed by each suggestion was why he didn’t think his suggestion was good. Suggestion #1: The Driving Range. Why I would have accepted: I LOVE the driving range, even more than I love golfing. Oooh, martyr for a cause. And the cause is me! You fucked it up!
