--- Quote from: Christophe on 08 Apr 2011, 23:14 ---I feel like I've got to focus on being as happy as I can without needing to pursue someone at this point, and it's something I've never really done. I can't remember a point since middle school where I haven't felt "I'm happy without wanting/needing a girlfriend" and I think I'm long overdue for that. (Granted for four years I was with a cool girl, but I'm not anymore and since then I've done a lot of re-evaluating of what I want out of a lady and such.) There's so many things I feel like I should probably focus on (like finding a more stable job, moving out of where I am right now, playing music), things I can actually do and have fun with or that actually really matter before involving a girl into the equation. If something just happens to fall into my lap and I'm down, I'm not gonna say no but I'm not going to actively pursue it.

Is this sensible or is this my dry spell getting to me? Do I just need to get laid?

If your ultimate goal is a meaningful long-term relationship with someone, this is how it should be done. Being happy and stable makes you more attractive to other happy and stable people, and having your happiness and stability arise from outside a relationship puts much less stress on the relationship, increasing the chances it will be successful.

Once he tried to feed me fried spam. If anything smelled like Satan's butthole, that was it.

Also as cliche as it sounds, the best way to find someone is to stop looking, and just let yrself be open to the possibility if it arises instead of forcing it. I'd imagine this has a lot to do with people being a lot more attractive when they're not desperate and consumed by desire to be in a relationship no matter what.

evaluating my life:

+ exciting summer internship. there's a stipend and I'm getting my own place but it's not terribly far from my parents or my best friend. located in a small college town where there will be many students. internship directly pertains to my interests and career goals (it's in land conservation). future coworkers seem incredibly friendly.
+ got into printmaking class for next year. you have to interview for upper level classes here and I've never gotten refused but it's still nice, I'm not going abroad so that I can take this. the professor loved my work and I felt good in the studio. might concentrate on printmaking within my art major.
+ successfully restarted super cool art collective. people seem stoked/interested. I hear people talking about it on campus.
+ I have many exceedingly lovely friends.
+ my friend's birthday party is at the farm tonight :)

- I am so fucking fail with boys. still.
- my housemates have band practice and ug that bass is loud

I'm going to try to stop looking and concentrate on continuing to be great at everything. boys are time consuming anyways.
