There is a group on Facebook called “I’m single because you’re not good enough.” I thought Aha! A group that understands how I feel!
It didn’t take long, however, to find out there is one major difference between me and the other singles in the group: I’m not having sex! It has been thrown in my face more than once that, while I am waiting for someone good enough to come along, and in the meanwhile taking Oomph! liner art into the bathroom with me (if you know what I mean), all these other singles are out there engaging in the horizontal mambo!
There are two reasons this bothers me:
1) Who exactly are all these people having sex with? I mean, it can’t really be like Sex and the City, can it? People don’t just get it on with strangers from the grocery store, out-of-town friends-of-friends and people you meet at Weight Watchers meetings… do they?
2) I regret to say that my first reaction upon hearing of all of this nookie was “If you’re still getting laid, what exactly is it about relationships that you miss?” I’m not sure what I should make of this reaction, but it almost certainly bodes no good. I will reflect on this for some time, and get back to you when I know what it all means.
