"Sex is like politics, protect yourself....VOTE"

The title is something I saw on a shirt(on the cover of JANE magazine), and I absolutely LOVE it! I won't get on a political soapbox today(hopefully). I just wanted to give credit for the quote that wasn't mine. So I'm on the computer yesterday, following up on a project X seminar I went to on friday, and I am signed in to my Yahoo! messenger, with a busy message, saying I was doing research for CJA, and I get, like, 3 IMS. OK, not a big deal if it was from some of my friends...but it wasn't. It was the kind of IMs that start off with a/s/l, and then go into how big is your bust, what kind of guys do you like. Is anyone else annoyed by these messages? Then the guys ask why I have the attitude. Unfortunately I'm getting nicer in my old age, and I didn't answer how I would have liked to (for example, something like "because I TRIED getting rid of you the nice way, but your chimp brain isn't that far evolved to get it!") Don't get me wrong, I've met and ended up dating people from online, but it's not the REASON I go on.... it's just easier to type in the thing I'm looking for and let the info come to me, versus looking it up in multiple books, etc.
On a similiar note, what is the big deal with dating? The measure of success is not in who you date (well, unless it's Vin, but he's a completely different story!!). I'm tired of hearing that I need to get a boyfriend and get married, yadda yadda... Until I find someone who can show me it's even worth considering, I'm not dating. I meet a guy, he's really nice, caring, etc.... and then, if he falls under these categories, one of two things happen. 1) either he tells me he's married or 2) I find out how much medication he's on. If he's married, either that ends that, or he tries to pursue it..... nope. I don't want to have to hide a relationship, and know it will go nowhere. If he's medicated, I don't care if it's for something like ADHD, or seizures...things of that nature, it's understandable. If he's medicated for depression, multiple personalities, etc...... I'm gone. We're not gonna go over all the criteria, because then it'll be obvious why everyone says I'm so picky!! LOL! It seems as if this blog is turning into almost a diary of sorts, because I'm letting all of you into my head, but the difference between this and an actual diary is the cool thing.... you can comment on this, feel free and until next time, STAY OUTTA THE PAPERS!
