It's up to me

If I am going to find someone to spend the rest of my life with, I guess it's going to be completely up to me. It's amazing to me that my friends and coworkers think I am fantastic only to the point of setting me up on a date.

Most people have the excuse that they don't know anyone who is single. But I'm not buying that. We are all surrounded by single people. They are out there. I KNOW they are. There are millions of single guys registered on online dating sites all over the internet. So they are out there. It just takes effort to find them. Maybe he's a friend of a friend or the son of your neighbor or the guy who fixes your best friend's car.

I get all of this great advice from married friends. Hang in there. He's out there, just be patient. Don't give up. And that's good and fine. But if my friends and family want me to find this piece of happiness and badly as I do, then people need to start talking me up out there.

The flip side is that people are probably afraid to fix me up. Or they just don't want to. And that's good and fine too. But if that's the case, people need to stop asking me when I'm going to get married or if I have anyone special in my life. And they need to stop offering sage advice. I haven't had a date in almost a year.

What if I am supposed to me him through YOU?
