So what about love? Well, like I said before love is like putting a 2 piece puzzle together, love is one piece, the other, commitment. That doesn’t sound so bad right? Well it is true that when you get one piece of that puzzle in place, the other follows, depending on your perspective, but,as flashy and tempting as love and commitment sound, when you take that path, well, you be the judge. I can honestly say that, love and the commitment it entails really isn’t for everyone even if its marketed as such and same goes for singlehood. Actually putting in the effort to find and maintain a girlfriend is like buying beachfront property and building a home there, and the temptation to live somewhere else is not even half the battle because personally the familiarity and the sheer boredom and annoyance that develops from the constant wear and tear of the house you put yourself through is what really sucks. Oh, and you never know when that big wave is just going to creep up and obliterate every grain of sand and shard of glass in that seemingly perfect home you built and occupy. Trust me, im not in any way discouraging people from looking for love, im just saying that they should wear safety gear and fasten their seat belt because its going to be a rough ride.
So what about singlehood? Well, this path is a lot more diverse than its more simple companion. Singlehood itself is a way to find love eventually, it all depends on what you want to achieve. Lets just say that you are looking for love, hooking up and casual dating is like looking at the tabs in a porn site, just so many to choose from in so little time. It does get tedious though, looking for love like this is like trying to win the lottery, plenty of good numbers but it just doesn’t seem to work out. People are often too busy looking for that proverbial “spark” that they don’t even bother to scratch the surface of the person they’re with, or do they. So the selection process does take a while but if your skilled(or patient) enough, this process gets quite simple. You like her, start something, don’t like her, keep looking, start something, doesn’t work, keep looking, simple. Ah yes, and there is a certain population of singles who’re in it just for the “action” so to speak. The most common initial reaction to these guys(most common) is they have to be the satyriatics and nymphomaniacs of society, partially true. Lets not forget after all that like, food, water, and shelter, sex is a NEED. Sure you wont die if you don’t bang somebody, but you’d sure wish you were dead. Personally, I think this population is the only one with the clear picture of what they really want. I did mention that love is a rare commodity, and by rare I mean, needle in a hay stack rare. But getting laid, ah, now there’s something more feasible. Whether you have the slickest tongue in town that could get legs to spread at will or, the face and body that literally acts as a fishing pole reeling in any fish that you bait, or both, wanting sex, or anything for that matter follows a certain physics that once mastered to a certain degree, will enable one to be like Neo in the Matrix, its all in the mind.
So what now, well all roads have their rough patches, rivers to cross, narrow mountain paths, and occasional landslides, so what I’ve learned so far, you dig the grave you decide to bury yourself in. So bring a shovel and some rope.
