Amusing.

What follows is a portion of an email, written to me by my friend, Becky, in regards to a certain guy who asked her out last weekend.

I find the whole thing extremely amusing.

He has officially asked me out twice, I think. Three times really if you count Friday night. Twice via text message. Once I ignored (I was in bed!) and the second one I sent “lets make it through the week first.” He is trying so hard.  Should I appease him and get my free dinner, movie, coffee etc. out of it?  What do I have to loose? It would be one night where I didn’t have to sit at home with my parents, watching the Discovery Channel.  Would it be worse than watching the silly ”loggers” cut down trees for the umpteenth time? You know him. I haven’t “dated” in like 5 years… That’s a lie- I have attracted one guy with literally half a brain (free ice cream though), Creepo (again, free ice cream and dinner at some snazzy Italian restaurant for my b-day), and one annoying dude that called me “Beckster” the whole time (free hot chocolate).  And, I only went out with all of these boys because, in the pit of my stomach, I feel guilty if I don’t give everyone an even shot…. What if these seemingly useless boys are placed before me to lead me to the right person?  If I don’t test them all out on at least one date then I end up falling off my path and end up lonely for the rest of my life. WHAT IF I BECOME A CAT LADY?!?!?!
