Gah. Even reading comics reminds me that I don't have a boyfriend right now.

[DarkTirade]

Or a girlfriend either, I'm not picky. Well, I am picky. That's one of the reasons why I'm still single. :P I'm just not picky about that.

[Parche]

[DarkTirade]

20. People are already starting to stock Cadbury eggs.

Those (*&%ers. They KNOW I'm trying to get in shape. And they KNOW I'm addicted! :P

[Cabcere]

25. I know, right? What a bunch of dicks.

:P :hug: :hi:

Happy Singles' Awareness Day. ;) :loveya:

[Shell Beau]

2. Aw! I bet you have lots of DU boyfriends and girlfriends!!

:loveya:

[DarkTirade]

7. Yes, but it's not quite the same.

I miss cuddles. And other things, but I don't wanna get this thread locked. :P

[TZ]

[Lucian]

:puke: on Valentine's Day.

[DarkTirade]

9. At least tomorrow my workplace will no longer be almost entirely pink.

... instead it will be half green, half pastel. Because we've got a bunch of Easter and St. Patrick's Day stuff. :P

[Tektonik]

5. Come to SD, I'll be your bf

[DarkTirade]

10. It's a bit of a drive from here...

[Tektonik]

[DarkTirade]

12. But my arms get terribly tired after a few hundred miles...

:P

[Tektonik]

15. Ok I'll compromise

We can meet in Denver.

[buzzycrumbhunger]

14. I feel your pain

Bad enough Edda's now getting more than I do and I really expected Amos would finally propose today, but am a little relieved they opted to prolong the foreplay.

[DarkTirade]

16. Damn fictional characters.

[buzzycrumbhunger]

17. Really!

I don't know what's worse--living vicariously through them or being jealous because they're gettin' some and I'm stuck in born-again virgin territory with no end in sight. :P

[DarkTirade]

22. How long does it take for one to become a born-again virgin?

I'm pretty sure I'm there or at least close to it. :P

[buzzycrumbhunger]

26. I can't even remember my last time

. . . which means I'm long past the milestone, fer sure. :(

[DarkTirade]

29. ... I'm embarrassed to admit how long ago my last time was.

Too long.

[Jamastiene]

19. I'd sell my soul in a heartbeat for a kickass woman to show up and

give me the fling of my life. I could do with a nice long year of absolutely wonderful, wild craziness and tons of wet, sweaty, heaving breathing...and good sex. :P

All I'd want is for her to be sexy and beautiful to me, not so much to anyone else. Hell, in high school I was once crazy about a crazy eyed girl everyone else called, "Tree" and barked at. I thought she was the fucking best thing since sliced bread. Yowza! I met her on the school bus. It was in 11th grade. My aunt couldn't get me to school any other way when her car broke down. So, I needed to ride the bus for a week or two. Later, I even asked my aunt to let me start riding the bus all the time after meeting that girl so I could see what color her hair would be each day and what designs she put on her fingernails.

I was hopeless over her. All these years later, I'm still hopeless. Now, it's even worse because it's more of a general hopelessness. :(

[DarkTirade]

21. Ah, yes. The one that got away.

We all have at lesat one of those. :hug: I can think of at least three offhand. One from before I admitted to myself that I liked boys. The other two were just ships passing in the night. (or in one case, cars. Cross-country trip... met someone at 2 in the morning at Denny's. Go fig. :P)

[onager]

33. Here, have some Tom Waits to make you feel better...

The One That Got Away

Well the gigolo's jumping salty, ain't no trade out on the streets,
Half past the unlucky, and the hawk's a front-row seat
Dressed in full orchestration, stage-door Johnny's got to pay,
And sent him home talking about the one that got away

Could have been on Easy Street, could have been a wheel,
With irons in the fire and all them business deals
But the last of the big-time losers shouted before he drove away,
"I'll be right back, as soon as I crack the one that got away!"

Well, the ambulance drivers, they don't give a shit,
They just want to get off work,
The short stop and the victim already gone berserk
And the shroud-tailor measures him for a deep-six holiday,
The stiff is froze, the case is closed on the one that got away

Now Jim Crow's directing traffic with them cemetery blues,
With them peculiar-looking trousers, them old Italian shoes
And a wooden kimono that was all ready to drop in San Francisco Bay
But he's mumbling something all about the one that got away

And Costello was the champion at the St. Moritz Hotel,
And the best this side of Fairfax, reliable sources tell
But his reputation is at large, and he's at Ben Frank's every day,
Waiting for the one that got away

He's got a snakeskin sportshirt, and he looks like Vincent Price,
With a little piece of chicken, and he's carving off a slice
Someone tipped her off, and she'll be doing a Houdini now any day
She shook his hustle, and a Greyhound bus'll take the one that got away

Well, Andre's at the piano behind the Ivar in the sewers,
With a buck a shot for pop tunes, and a fin for guided tours
He coulda been in "Casablanca", he stood in line out there all day
Now he's spilling whiskey and learning songs about the one that got away

Well I've lost my equilibrium and my car keys and my pride,
The tattoo parlor's warm, and so I hustle there inside
And the grinding off the buzz-saw, "What you want that thing to say?"
I says, "Just don't misspell her name, buddy, she's the one that got away"

[Irish Girl]

34. they BARKED at her??

geez that poor girl. hopefully she bit them back.

:P

[RadiationTherapy]

23. Is that Gambit!? Is Gambit gay!? Holy shit!

Wait. I don't read comics n shit...
*blush*

[DarkTirade]

27. 's Apollo and Midnighter from the Wildstorm comic universe.

While owned by DC, it's not part of the main Batman/Superman/Justice League/ect. DC universe. They did leave it open for crossovers because DC has this whole 'multiple universes' thing goin' on though. :)

[jobycom]

24. It's a GREAT feeling, ain't it?

I just love being alive, who cares if I've got someone or not.

[DarkTirade]

28. I dunno, I spent most of today working retail.

Not sure if that counts as 'being alive'. :P

[jobycom]

31. Eh. I did five years in retail, sentenced for god knows what sin.

It has its pluses.

[lightningandsnow]

30. Oy, I can relate.

I feel like I need a boyfriend/girlfriend/gender nondescript partner at the moment. Or at least someone to make out with.

Alas, no such luck.

Oh well. That's life. :P

[DarkTirade]

35. At least someone to make out with.

Truer words have never been spoken. :)

[Norwood]

32. In the same boat too!

I invited this girl I work with over to hang out and maybe have a few drinks. Ya know, 2 single people celebrating singles appreciation day.....it appears she isn't coming :(

Loneliness sucks

[DarkTirade]

36. Back when I lived in FL my friends usually threw an anti-valentine's day get-together.

Then they all coupled off and I moved away. :P

[ThomCat]

37. ...

[DarkTirade]

38. Oh my...
