The Tax Cheapo

First, I’m not a spineless cheesball single man, comfortably satisfied by sitting at home without a date every weekend. I’d bet readers have never heard me blog about great dating and relationships. Go figure.

Boredom is an avoidable foreign condition and intentionally ripped out of my man programming (man-gramming?). Even so, I’ll level with you, I had to escape from a worthwhile fling which meant a lot for us but just would never last. Therefore one could tell ya it has been a good since I dated. I can’t find the great expectations that came naturally before.

Living free and single isn’t bad. One thing is for sure, I won’t be reduced to sit tight, faithfully devowering Star Trek Enterprise episodes off the torrents. The number one factor behind this bout of fresh break-up dating apathy? We’re not in high school, and everyone else is boring.

My go-getting golf friend, Tim, who has never had dating boredom, told me he’s now in the same boat. He introduced me to this Dallas dating service called Great Expectations. I take to mingling among attractive gals who share my passions. Surprise, I put myself on a plan and became a member.

I told myself, ya can’t grovel about not having plans if you haven’t called anyone. Like our old baseball coach Chris Jennings told me grinning, “You’re complaining to the competition, turbo.”

Sheer genius, right? But, the old man was right in a way nobody could understand. He meant well to everyone. This crazy company offering matchmaking services in Dallas that I use definitely would have overloaded his brain.

At yesterday’s Great Expectations dating events I talked to a few insightful and appealing singles that hold my interest. I actually had a carefree night with a few pretty well-situated singles. The evening ended following a promising exchange of numbers, and as a plus, I developed some social networking connections for my company. Right on!

Put yourself in the play. Can’t be happy if you sit the bench. Listen to me and at least have great expectations for dating.

Frankly,

Larry D.
