Everyday life just isn't romantic

It's tough to be in the mood when all we deal with is being busy keeping our lives together: waking up way too early, getting your kids up, getting them ready, getting everyone to where they need to go, only to do it all at the end of the day. Then the really awful part is going on vacation and it's a rush to enjoy the precious few days. I finally get it.

Being single isn't much different because life tends to get in the way. And anything can ruin a romantic atmosphere.

Where is this thing going?

Why is it that women always want to know our future intentions? The question almost always comes up just when things are seemingly perfect. 

Every little thing she does is…

Annoying and frustrating. My threshold for tolerance has diminished over time. It's getting worse. Everything the women in my life do is not magic. It's a pain in the ass.

Living every second

Age is bearing down on me. I feel it. I have this burning feeling that I have to take bigger chances and bigger risks. I am worried that I am running out of time. 

Acceptable sub-culture #1 (of a series)

The Double life.

Girls that have boyfriends that seek excitement and adventure elsewhere. They will do and try ANYTHING. Things they won't do with their boyfriends. They talk the talk and put on a great show. They are the girls who teach Sunday school, work at daycare, live with their parents and have commitment rings. 

Then they spend the night with me and one of their friends. ;) Yes, exactly what you think. Then they share everything they can't talk about to anyone, but me, because I'm in with them. It makes me wonder how many similar experiences women in my past may have had. Was I the dope of the past?

So far away…

I'm sure I'm not alone. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels "outside" of the norm. Society, as I see it, it not inclusive. It's about sub-sectors and sub-cultures. Everyone seems like they fit in, but I've seen and experienced things that have truly made me feel further outside.

Amazingly, nothing I could tell you would surprise you. You'd likely not even blink. But from my perspective, living it makes it hard to accept people strictly by what they pretend to be.

What we all experience…

This is perfect.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hfl9e53LX_U
