Single’s Scene in Dallas
I’ve recently found myself single, again…hooray! And in being such I’ve noticed just how much I absolutely abhor the single scene. It seems like there’s always a sort of insistent social pressure to “get out and meet someone”, and in so doing a whole myriad of unpleasant situations arise. Bars are probably the easiest and most amusing scenario, people go to bars for two reasons, to get drunk, and to meet people. Seems simple enough, right? Oh but if only it were that easy. Upon my recent venture to a bar in Addison I sat at a table with my friends, curiously eyeing the group of girls across from us. The most interesting things occur when there’s a group of attractive girls sitting by themselves…Hoards of guys approached, one after the other, with some of the corniest and most hilarious pickup lines I’ve ever heard. After watching a dozen or so groups of guys be shot down by these girls it was time to head out, head swimming and thankful someone else was driving. *sighs* Just another reminder of how uncomfortable the entire single gig can be. Better luck next week.
