Quotes from a (sad) Bar

I’m sorry that I’d rather text pictures of onesies than talk to a creepy guy.

Guy: is that a circle on your shirt?I just wanted to see if there was one on the front.

Girl: I can’t understand what you’re saying.

Guy: that’s cause I wear Invisalign.

you remind me of the girl I went to prom with because she was so much taller than me too!

Guy: Hey.

Girl: Are you part of the party or is this a random walk by?

Guy: I’m not part of any party. I just wanted to say hi because you are really beautiful.

Girl: Did you stop me because I have a circle on my shirt? There was this other guy and he had invisalign.

Guy: No, I just wanted to say hi. I’m recently single and just trying to meet people.

Girl: (Pointing to SSG) She writes a blog about being single…

Silence.

(Girl still managed to give her number to guy with the help of SSG and friend!!)

I Am Thankful…

…that I wasn’t proposed to in a diner. Yea, folks, you read that right…a DINER! I am home in Philadelphia for Thanksgiving break, and yesterday morning, before my sister and I headed home to the suburbs to our parents house, we required some coffee and greasy food (you know what that means!!!).

Yes. A wedding. The dreaded event for all of the single and sad (ie no men even slightly planting fruits in our basket) ladies out there. Except this wedding was in the magical (yeah, you got that…”magical”…I can be sappy sometimes) land of Hawaii…

where this is the view out the window of your hotel room…

I want to go (back) to there!

SadSingleGal Gets a Phone Call…

…FROM A BOY!!!!! I know….pretty exciting, right? Funny thing is though, I had no clue at the time it was even happening. Which you are reading that and going, what, um, how, what…um, explain?

So if you recall, I “Dear SSG”-ed myself (I already have a blog called The Sad Adventures of A Single Gal…so there really is no shame) about a guy I was interested in and had met at a party. Well, I took the advice of a friend and actually wrote this guy a note. I stuck it in his mailbox at work, and heard nothing back. I then proceeded to completely forget about the guy, the note, and the situation in general….(I was in Hawaii after all- I am getting to that, I promise. I have just been busy!)

Can I go back, please? No really!

The Third Person vs. The Third Wheel

I wrote some time ago about how I have been immortalized as the perennial Third Wheel. Well, last night I was out with my good friend and her boyfriend. And I have to say, not once did they make me feel like the third wheel. Rather than making me feel like this:
