So, I just read that book, He’s Just Not That Into You because, well, let’s face it, I’m horrible at anything close to a relationship. I get too involved too fast, and I belong on that television show Tough Love because that’s what I need. I’m only 21. I’ve never been in a real relationship, and I put myself in these unhealthy situations and dwell on them for what seems like forever. Then, I end up walking home, a drunken mess, and fall on my ass. I shouldn’t worry about this because I am so young, but all of my friends are getting married and having children. They are all right around my age.
In my most recent encounter, I thought the guy was into me because he paid me a little attention, but he told me we were “just friends,” which didn’t end up holding up. Now, it’s an awkward dance, and I feel like I’ve wasted the last 6 months or so on a guy who is just not that into me. He’s proven it time and time again.
I am the girl that Greg Behrendt is trying to help. I am that girl. I never wanted to be that girl. I read that book, and I’ve made a lot of the mistakes that he tells us not to make. Even after reading that book, I made those same mistakes again last night. Does this make me crazy?
