You ever have one of those days?

So, I haven't posted in a long while and I need to repent. Since there's no school tomorrow I figure I'd take advantage of it by updating (to some extent my blog) haha.

Anyways, have you ever had one of those days where it just seems like no matter what you do, you can't get a date? haha.
I think it's just funny. You call one girl, and she's busy that day. You call another, but she doesn't answer the phone...so there's the question: do you leave a message??? If you do, depending on what you say, you risk the chance of locking yourself in. What happens if she doesn't call back until the day before the anticipated date??? You can't ask someone else out until you hear back from her and know that she can't go...
So, you decide to leave a generic message and just say you wanted to "see how she was doing, etc, etc" and ask her to call you back. You call another girl (we're on 3 in case you lost count). She doesn't answer either so you decide to not leave a message this time.
By this point you still haven't heard back from any of the girls and the day for the date is fast approaching. You're by no means a Casanova...so you don't have a never ending list of girls you can call. You decide to call a girl you've just met in the ward that you're only minutely interested in....and guess what. She's busy that day too, but is genuinelly busy and says stuff like "you'll have to call me again sometime," "I'd love to do something some other time....blah blah blah." So not only have you attempted asking 4 different girls for this date and still have nothing to show for it. This girl whom you are only minutely intersted in is now expecting you to call and ask her out again.
It's just been one of those days...

Wow. I never comment on blogs. Not really.

But, no. Can't say I've ever had one of those days. However, I do feel for you. Your dilema resembles the reason why I never make any plans these days.

How are you, anyway? I never see you to talk to you anymore. I'm too big of a loser. :)

But, I must say, I do enjoy your blog. It entertains me.

At first I didn't read your post, because it was long and had no pictures.

Then Aubrey, who has a long attention span, read it and told me it was funny.

I read it, and yes - I remember all too well the downfalls of the single life.

Aubrey and I are going to go eat lunch now. Now when she's busy, I don't feel the urge to call other girls. I just play video games.

So in other words: Get married, punk. Maybe to Girl #4 - or how about Emmalee? Or how about anyone!

Yance-
I know how you feel. I'm having an interesting time dating. I'd get married if I could, but its not easy when you can't even get a date. :)

And I agree with Ryan...why don't you just marry Emmalee?

Heart ya

To anwser steph and ryan...the reason I don't just marry EmmaLee is because she's basically engaged. :)

Katria said...

In regards to EmmaLee being engaged, why is it I have to find out from Jackson of all people?!

Yancy said...

Well, I would say that part of the reason is because she isn't even engaged yet. I think the only reason Jackson found out is because he started IMing me and EmmaLee was right there and wanted to talk to him after he told me he was dating someone.
Other than that...Perhaps you should ask her.

Very insightful. So many girls complain about how they have to sit around waiting for boys to ask them out, but "boys just don't ask girls out anymore, it's not that hard for them to take initiative and do it, why won't they? Blah blah blah..." and they don't see how it is hard on the guy's end too. All girls should read this!
