Straight Talk
by Nimfa L. Estrellado
However, I’ve been spending so much time online with the internet lately. Hoping to meet Mr. Right? No. I’m just enjoying myself talking to other surfers. But I accepted the fact that maybe I might find the damn prince of mine in cyber space. I guess I’m ready for that fairy tale ending. Like Cinderella ends up marrying some strange guy because of her shoe size.
Being single for such a long time urge me to look a new adventures here in Cyber Space. I’d heard stories about online dating like Tinder. I figure out that some men and women might soon be meeting were looking for just two things, sex and serious relationship. Am I right? Well there’s no guarantee that you’ll meet the right person you are looking for. Some would be lying, some would chase, but someone would care about you too. But sometimes when you finally encounter love in Cyber Space, it’ll be the time you would care about with a stranger. He will court you so sweetly that you couldn’t resist. But I don’t find it’ll more acceptable to play with love in Cyber Space, I might lose and get hurt. I am not lonely and enjoy my own company but I’d like to have people over to eat with, to cook with and to go and do social activities with.
But why is it in the era of dating apps and websites or digital dating finding a partner is easy for some and hard for others? Why? Yes I am one of them, and it normally takes me longer to find somebody new, maybe a year, or even a few years, I find it very puzzling, even frustrating.
I CAN STAND BEING ALONE. I don’t feel that I must have someone in my lives all the time, so I don’t keep going from one relationship to the next, since I love being single. But some people need to be with someone is stronger than desire to have a meaningful relationship, because of that they hardly break up before they meet someone new, so they appear like they find partners easily: the truth is, they just can’t stand being alone and do everything they can to keep the old relationship, whether they are happy in it or not.
Technology has exploded our dating options and put dating effectively on amphetamines. The sheer quantity of choices gives us the feeling that we can and will meet someone through technology. How could we not?
And yet, precisely because there is so much choice, we often don’t give the person we’ve met a real chance. If anything isn’t to our immediate liking, we dive back into our device, back into the land of possibility. Sometimes we do this even when we like the person we’ve met, because we can, and there still could be someone better.
Dating in the age of technology presents challenges that can be difficult even for the most confident of daters. So if you met someone online using a dating site RECOGNIZE that real relationships (with humans, not robots) take effort and time, are not easy and never without discomfort. Finally, honor yourself for putting in the effort to achieve something you desire.
Before proceeding any further, ask him if he has a girlfriend. At first, it may be hard to know if he is being honest. The more that you get to know each other, the better you will be able to tell if he does have a girlfriend. Most girlfriends will not allow their boyfriend to be online for several hours at a time chatting with a woman. Never exchange personal information until you get to know your crush better. Don’t try to force a relationship. If you were meant to be together, be patient. It will happen.
Awhile ago, I feel like I’m on a bar sitting at a table and listening to the mellow music from youtube. Work’s tomorrow, but tonight I can stay up late, I said to myself last night. I love to celebrate things alone. It was ridiculous to watch a horror film alone, but what’s the big deal out of something like that? I’m glad to be alone, yes I am single. I’m totally tired of being with someone who doesn’t love me. I simply do not need it. Instead of swapping saliva with a Ding Dong Dantes look-alike, I made a new year’s resolution to never go out with a boy who’d choose dating (sex), play (sex) over romance. I love being single, no more boys passing out in the middle of dinner at my parents’, no more “lovers quarrel”, no more “third party”, no more weekend make over. Its not that that I don’t want to be love, I am just realizing I am not getting any younger and am taking a new approach to life.
