It seems like everyday I have a conversation with someone about my love life... well, actually, my lack of love life. Usually the conversation is me talking very directly about failed attempts, or high expectations, and even the prospects of past, present, and future. Today, I met up with a dear friend of mine... and the conversation was the same old same old... except she had a little light and wisdom to shed on my poor little perpetually broken heart. And, after having a conversation with this dear friend of mine, I have decided I'm tired of being everybody's Plan B.
To explain, I mean that story you always hear that usually start out as a joke. The story about two people having a conversation about never getting married. You know what I'm talking about, right? That conversation, where they make a deal that if in 30 years, or when they are 40 years old, that if they are both not married still that they'll just giving in and end up marrying each other. And, in Hollywood, that is a really good idea and usually ends up working out for both parties... because in the end they figure out that it was always meant to be. But that is my life! Except I've never actually had that conversation... every boy just decides I'm their back-up girl and proceeds with life hoping someone else will work out, but if it doesn't good ol' trusty Liz will be there waiting with open arms... because, frankly, she's got nothing better to do.
Well, I'm just tired of it. I'd like to be the first choice sometime. That's all. I just wanted the world to know. I'm tired.
