52dates?
the dude that writes this blog is apparently a friend of a friend or some sort of acquantaince with aubs. i think he's hilarious. like in a dick sort of way. y'know, like that guy friend you have and keep hanging out with, despite the fact that he's semi-misogynistic and is a bit of a DB, but he's funny and his stories are entertaining and you have fun drinking with him? yeah, that guy.
i think alot of girls would probably be offended with his premise - he's going to go on 52 dates, every girl he gets a number from, in one year. and then he's going to blog about it. but really isn't that what everyone does? he makes a good point that most people go on dates & subsequently tell their friends about those dates - the only difference is that he's telling the entire interweb. and he's keeping the girls anonymous. and his dates are really funny. i say bring it!
it got me wondering if i should do that same - but then i came back to reality and decided that probably wasn't a good idea. i don't want to broadcast all of my dating (mis)adventures on my blog. even though it probably would be pretty comical. because i'm a dating dork, that's why.
i will say that since moving to SF a year and a half ago, dating is HARD. before i moved here, i was all "yeah, big city! boys (geekyfantastic and indie rock) everywhere! i'll be in heaven!" uh, notsomuch. it's not hard to meet boys here, but it's hard to date them. and it makes sense - there are alot of cute, smart, funny, and awesome girls in san francisco (despite what mr. 52dates might have to say) - why would any guy decide to date just one girl? he wouldn't. and he won't. yeah.
i've recently had a discussion with one of my boy (space) friends about how my "friend zone" has "really high walls. with a moat. with alligators. and fire. and ninjas." essentially impenetrable once banished. heh. and this might be true. but i also get lumped into the friend zone more often than not. and this has been the case for my entire life. i cannot tell you how many times i've met some potentially* great guy, sort of dug him, and then he just wants to be friends. i'm just that kinda girl. the kind that induces awww shucks friendly-type feelings in boys.
but hey, it could be worse. it's not like i'm doing too awfully bad for myself, and going on dates is fun. just don't expect to hear details on THIS blog.
