Never Have I Ever

First date, first kiss, first love, first...

Ha!

The farthest I've gone with a guy was a hug

a hug that was done in common courtesty

since he had already hugged my much more attractive friend

goodbye

The other day a teacher asked us to

describe the worst date we've ever been on

 thank goodness that he didn't call on me

or I would have had to admit

in front of thirty strangers

that I'm a college student

who has never been on a

date

How pathetic am I?

The thing is I don't really care all

that much

My friends keep trying to set me up with random guys

but I'm super picky

maybe that's why I've never gone out with a guy

the ones who like me I don't like

the ones I like don't like me

Maybe i should just listen to my friends and settle

Ha! 

And end up with someone who hurts me 

no thanks

I'm perfectly fine with the idea of

being a strong independent woman

and am kind of looking forward to the thousands

upon thousands of cats

that inevitably I am going to have

Maybe that's why I haven't gone out with someone

Because i'm scared of getting hurt

Maybe I should open myself up

and just go out with the first guy who asks me out

Ha!

and end up going out with some guy whom

I don't find attractive

or who has a horrible personality

or both

No thanks. 

But

if that happens I'll have a good story to tell

and more life experience

and...

No wonder i'm single

I think too much 

I bet that while you sit there debating about

whether you want to fall in love  

love will end up creeping up on you 

That always happens right?

Lets hope so or you'll never have your first anything
