Dating for Misanthropes #2

May 04, 2008 20:36

Okay, so things are looking up. You have someone putting food on the table - that sounds good. You have someone running fingers through your hair - also good. You have someone’s fingertips gently brushing your lips - great.

You aren’t dating. Hell, even though you pay for these things, you aren’t even soliciting a prostitute. In fact, these women are only slightly less interested in you than a prostitute would be. These aren’t potential dates. These are service industry workers, waitstaff, a hairdresser, and a dental hygienist.

Some facts about service industry professionals you seem to have missed in your journey through life: they meet lots of people, they already have lots of friends, the more attractive they are the less likely they are to be interested in your ugly ass. Okay, that last one is generally true of anyone you are thinking of dating and is a good rule for you to remember at all times. Trust me, the correlation between how hot someone is and their interest in you is definitely negative. Which is the attitude you have, and should have, because you are a miserable fuck with no prospects.

So, how do you overcome these insurmountable obstacles and date one of these seemingly unapproachable people?

Don’t.
