They're Not Good Enough For Me

I have to keep telling myself that there is nothing wrong with me. Those guys are just not good enough for me. I have to be picky or else I will keep ending up with losers whom I will never be satisfied with. Nobody s perfect, but I know what I want in a relationship. I know what I want out of life. I just can't find it. I am driving myself crazy waiting for it to find me. My friends tell me that I am still young and that I have lots of time o figure this all out. Sure. Why not? Why can't I just wait? Everything worth having is worth waiting for. Why can't I believe that? Why can't I believe in myself? I find this so difficult and frustrating. There is nothing wrong with me. I'm just an average girl. I know I'm not a pretty girl. If anyone tells me I am pretty, I know it is just a lie to get something from me. Somebody is going to want to be with me one day. I just have to wait.

You have to quit being so hard on yourself about this. I know things are difficult, but your attitude won't help either.

Average looking, pretty, ugly, blah, blah. These are all terms that suck. And I won't use clichés, but if I were to, I would say that if your heart is ugly, then you are.

I think J is correct in a way when he mentioned attitude. Attitude, wether it be good or bad is important, in many instances it is what drives us or pulls us towards something, or holds us back. Glass half empty, glass half full, I say glass ready for a re-fill :)

It depends if that glass is a Beerstein.

Thanks guys. I wrote it to remind myself that it's not because there is anything wrong with me. Just the guys I tend to gravitate towards are not good enough for me. I have to realize that.

Canadian Chick said...

yeah, I could use a refill. ;)

I do get quite lonely at night. Unfortunately.

Waiting, waiting, waiting. It's hard and frustrating. I waited around for 2 years before I realized that there is a time and place for waiting and a time and place for doing. The trick is to figure out when to do what and I was spending far too much time "waiting" for that good thing to happen to me. My unsolicited advice is: Sometimes waiting and doing nothing is just as bad as taking a risk and having it blow up in your face. Sometimes it's much worse. There is a time and place for waiting and if you pick wrong, well then you can always try again in another situation with other people.

Canadian Chick said...

Yes, I agree that there is a time and a place for waiting and also for doing something. Waiting is less painful than having something blow up in your face. I'm tired of doing both. I guess that if I don't take chances, nothing will happen. If I do take a chance, I might get hurt. Sometimes I don't know which is worse.

Take Uncle Sean's advice.

He knows what it is all about.

Nobody wants to hurt but it happens anyway. Where people are concerned, big risks don't typically make for big payoffs but a series of little risks and small emotional investments can develop into that big payoff over time and you're less likely to get hurt if you take baby steps. There does come a point sometimes where taking that big risk is inevitable but hopefully at that point it's just a natural course of action. In the short term, yes waiting around is less painful however in the long term it is more painful. I guess it really all depends on what you're looking for.

I guess I'm looking for someone like me, who can relate and understand. Not a shoulder to cry on, maybe someone to talk to. It has been a while since I was dating. I forgot what dating was like and how difficult it is. I'm probably not ready to date anyway. I know it wouldn't last very long. After the first year, everything seems to go down hill. It is scary that people don't seem to notice until they are at the bottom of the hill and dizzy as all heck from rolling down that hill.
