I don't know about most of you, but I use to watch TV shows where women talked about struggling with dating as they got older and I never really understood why. I was always like there are so many men out there, how can you not find one? Then I went through a couple break ups and many people will tell you, it gets easier and eventually you end up with the person you are supposed to be with, but you're supposed to kiss a lot of frogs until you find your prince. Well this year I have come to that realization. I know that this time should be the time of my life, I am only young once I should get out there and date as many men as possible. Although the idea of that sounds great and all, it just isn't my cup of tea. I love Green Tea, Jasmine tea is my favorite, then I would say China Tips. I rarely venture into trying new teas that much because I LOVE green tea. I think that might be why dating for me is what some may say difficult. I know what I want and let's face it, dating in LA is not the easiest thing. There are a lot of men, and good looking men in LA, the only problem is finding one that doesn't want to keep putting his hand in the cookie jar. Guys in LA don't want to settle down for the most part and the ones that do, the only way you are probably going t find them is if they are referred to by a friend or coworker, cause let's be honest here people, you are not going to find mister right at a night club in Hollywood.
You can try a dating site, but you know the majority of people that are on dating websites don't even like admitting that they are on the site. There are many success stories don't get me wrong and I am beyond happy for those who have found true happiness from the site, but it isn't for everyone. So the people that is isn't for, where do they go and what do they do? Is there a certain "happy hour"that all the single established well mannered men attend? If so details please. I don't understand how it is possible that the majority of my gorgeous, independent female friends are single. Makes me wonder really. Is it just in LA? I feel like it has to be, there must be something in the water that makes it so the majority of the guys are, let me put it nicely, not worth the time or energy and the rest are swinging for the other team or snatched up by a lucky lady.
Who's to blame really, if it wasn't for LA pretty much catering to men so they can be a kid in a candy store with their options of beautiful women, can you blame them? There are women out here that make it much harder for ladies that are looking for a trust worthy faithful guy. It's almost like you can't be mad at him if the hot women are throwing themselves at them. I believe that if it wasn't for the face that a lot of women for the most part are out for themselves and will quickly without a thought in their head, throw the next girl under the bus to get a one up, then we probably would have a little more luck at a normal dating life in LA. I have never had as many friends in long distant relationships because they met someone amazing that lives out of the state. LA might be tainted, I hate to say it.
So what do you do, do you suck t up and join a dating website, tackle speed dating, keep hounding friends to intro you to their friends, or do you book your next vacation to somewhere like NYC and press your luck at finding someone while out of state?
Who has experienced this similar situation?

I thought I had posted a comment earlier but it did not show up! I think you should do a Sex and the City of Angels show! Perhaps you will meet "Mr Right" or "Mr Right at this Moment in time" at your favorite place to be, perhaps in an acting class or singing on stage somewhere, or at the beach, jogging, etc. Mom.
ReplyDeleteWell, as you know, I haven't had this experience as I lived a different life. I married my high school sweetheart and you took the road to adventure! Don't get me wrong. My life has been an adventure, too, but my challenges were and will be different than yours. The point is, life will send us in the right direction eventually and I know you will find someone who yearns for his hand in your hand versus his hand in the cookie jar :)
