why buy the cow

Single life is damn fun.

You’re a swinging bachelorette, your nights are nothing but body shots and hoping that “put your number in my phone” leads to “put your thingy in my hoohoo.” But most importantly, it’s a time to know yourself, your true wants and needs. Immediate fulfillment of desire is the name of the game, and because there’s no true investment in any particular individual, you’re free to explore the next hot piece that walks in the door.

Inevitably, however, restlessness will set in. There are only so many dark. loud places serving alcohol and only so many prospects who enjoy “going out, having fun, being with friends, or just hanging around”. Somewhere in between the morning walks of triumph/shame and evenings of lonely discontent, the whole scene becomes a cyclic deja vu starring a predictable roll of typecast players.

And at these times, you’ll be a lucky stiff to find that one of your flames has some lasting firepower. There’s a little something more there, and as sexy as the relationship began, the real attraction lies within underlying compatibility.

Now it’s prudent to unmount your head from its swivel and focus on a longer-term plan.

Why would anyone start a relationship with someone if they are able to get all the benefits of one without the commitment. Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free.

I had no idea you even had a blog... Sorry to hear just how hard the last while has been. I'd say I'm hear to talk, but our schedules don't seem to allow that.

I actually read every one of your posts, you have a compelling writing style. They were also very inspiring, and I intend to put some of those ideas to work.
