Are you kidding me Bro?

Ssssoooooo I have a habit of finding 9,000 other things to do then go on a date when I'm not really feeling a connection. As in, if I am totally indifferent to going out with the guy, and think "ya know, I need to get a jump start on my 2015 taxes.  I should just cancel/move that date so I can go through my paperwork at home."  

When that happens a few times, I realize it's me, not them.  This isn't the first time I've done this.  I often squish my insecurities down deep inside to keep up appearances (the good old 'fake it till you make it' thing), so when I start avoiding a date, I know after a while I'm just not happy with ME.  And I've blown off 3 dates in the past month.  SSsssssooooooo......I'm taking a break from dating.  

This will be my last post for a little while as I go through what feels like a mid-life crisis.  I am feeling VERY Under the Tuscan Sun with a Wedding Date where we Eat, Pray and Love our way through the Holiday.  

AND THEN THIS HAPPENED (I'm blue, he's yellow):

HE THOUGHT I WAS A MAN PRETENDING TO BE A WOMAN ONLINE!  It really bothered me because I'm an honest person.  Even though this person is a stranger it still bothers me someone would think me a fake.  Hence the picture of me.  But here's the thing, bringing this all back to technology and dating:

There was no way for me to prove to him that I am what/who I am.  How creepy is that?!  I'm totally guilty of this, but y'all, we put ourselves too much out there on the inter webs with no protection.  

The most INCREDIBLE EPILOGUE EVER:

My friend and fab single lady's Facebook status.  

And with that?  

I'm out.  

For now.
