Interesting situation

I've found myself in an interesting situation the past few months. I don't like any boys. I don't mean I don't enjoy the company of male friends. I'm just not forming any huge-o crushes as I typically do. It's been a new experience for me, not necessarily a bad one, but different.

Usually, I develop some major crush at least once a year. I could tell you who they all were too. Here they are, in no particular order (Except alphabetical. I did work in a library.): Chad, Cute Zoology Boy, Dan, Dan, Jesse, Jon, Jonathan (not Gross Jonathan), Rob, and Steve, Steve, and Steve. These crushes are without fail one-sided. And the one side is alway my side. I may be led to believe otherwise, but it always ends they same way. They get a girlfriend/married/dump me.

The past six or so months have been a little different. While I find several guys attractive, I don't really have any desire to go on dates with them. It's a strange feeling. I had a friend apologize to me recently because all of our conversations as of late have been one sided...all about her and her current crush. I don't have a problem with it.

It's kind of liberating to be free. Yes, I still want to date, and yes I still think I'm in the "Dating Black Hole," but I'm okay. I don't have some all-consuming passion with a guy. I don't have to try and figure out what every little thing he does means, when usually it means nothing. I don't have to deal with the heartbreak when he gets a girlfriend who is tall and blond and beautiful. It's great.

You, my friend, are great! It's nice being in that state of "I don't care." You are incredible in every sense of the word. When you do snag a man, he'll be very lucky! But until then, keep not caring. Either that or I have a few high heels we could throw.
