Why are you single?

‘But you’re single’ and ‘why are you single?’ I get asked that a lot. And, here’s the thing.. I’m not like most girls I know. I’m kind of intimidating. I cuss a lot. I’ve got dude’s sense of humor, most of my shirts are lowcut and my pants are tight. I’ve got funky hair, tattoos, a perfected poker face and walls a mile high. I know that I want a man but don’t need one so I’ll cut and run if it’s not on the better side of just right.. I know that I’m real and I’m rare. But, if you crack the code and get beyond all that you’re in for homemade meals, unquestionable loyalty, back rubs and regular affirmations of how much you’re loved. It’s like Bettie Page meets Betty Crocker or something like that. Like a tomboy in a pencil skirt with an alpha personality but a soft heart. I’m a catch. I’m just only letting myself be caught by the right one.

And beyond that, so many people are emotionally stunted and selfish these days. They seek out instant gratification. They don’t enjoy or indulge in the hunt. I require it. I will be pursued or I’ll be gone. Effort and interest go hand in hand and a man that earns my attention is a man who deserves it. I’m glad to say that today’s society hasn’t change me much when it comes to what I require or how I love. It took me a long time to figure out my own value and I can’t just let anyone in who could potentially damage that. But the right man will not only recognize that I am irreplaceable, he’ll go out of his way to make sure I am loved as such.. when I started to really become aware of what I need and who I am it was a game changer. Plus, it just feels good to recognize how amazing you are. I challenge you today to write a list of your quirks and attributes. I swear it’s life changing when you start to see how rare you are too.
