Come One Come All!

                   Why does it seem like no one likes you for the longest period of time, and then everyone does? It's infuriating!!! We go through many dry spells. No dates, no numbers, no potentials even. Women athletes at the gym, anti-socials at parties, no cute faces in the subway car. These dry months drag on and on until you get used to the idea of being alone and give up. You never know when the turn around happens exactly but suddenly you find yourself surrounded by men competing for your attention! The hottie who works at Barnes finally suggests coffee, strong jaw at the gym keeps working out on the treadmill next to yours, and some poor lad out there has convinced himself he wants to be your new BF.
                  This is so unfair. I know I know...first we bitch about having no dates, now we bitch about too many. HERE'S WHY! All of these men are decent. It's not as simple as someone you're completely not attracted to, an ex you're totally over, or your dude friend who you just don't think of in that way. No, that would be way too easy. Instead it's men you find yourself considering as viable options...each and every one of them.
                   I ask God on many occasions why he can't space these men out. I know once the rush is over I will yet again have to face months spooning my pillow (whom I have named Simon II) and trying to convince myself it was them not me. Why not insert one of these decent men into those lonely months. What are we supposed to do with all of them now? Well I guess I can think of a few things but that's not the point. This is unfair not only because of the desperately lonely months spent in the dry spell waiting for the rush, but also because now we are overwhelmed. Now we have to make choices and start hurting feelings. It's like the universe finally realizes it has been depriving you and overcompensates.  Saturn may be able to function with seven rings but I'm only looking for one.
