Another Kitty?

Okay, I know I complain a lot about being single. And for good reason I might add. There's nothing worse than attending your younger sister's wedding and having your own relatives make fun of you for being the only cousin who hasn't been married (one's divorced, the rest...damn them and their happy families!!). And that was before my boyfriend broke up with me (and maybe even why???)

So after a particularly bitter bitch session to my friend Bernice, I was convinced to try out the dating website she and her sister had recently registered for. Bernice had been quite successful so far, and assured me I would be as well.

That was two weeks ago.

That's right...two weeks ago I was just a normal, single 30-something girl bitter about men.

Now I'm just bitter.

Alright, no I'm not. I don't think I could be truly bitter if I tried. But I'm a little discouraged. I've had a lot of my messages ignored, been told I'm not someone's "type" or had people reply at first and then just lose interest. Okay fine, no worries, it's like dating, everything takes time. And then I received a message back from this fairly interesting 31 year old I had checked out.

He told me I was "out of (his) age range".

WTF?!?!?

That's when I realized why my dating luck has been all bad. Men are stupid. I know, not much of an epiphany, but seriously. Guys my age who are single are constantly complaining they can't find any decent single women. Now I know why; they're shopping in the young adult section. Wake up guys!! What the hell would a 21 year old want with you? You hit your peak 12 years ago!

Out of his age range...I scoff at his age range.

*sigh* It's times like these where I think I should just give in, get another kitty or 5 and accept my fate as a crazy cat lady.

But then I think no way; I'm not letting the male gender off the hook quite yet.
