Drama Queen... comin' through.

So, I've written about my extreme annoyance with whiners before.  Yes?  Yes.  Thus a new topic of discussion for my readers to giggle over.  I know you giggle, don't deny it.

There is a person in my social circle that creates so much personal drama, they make telenovellas seem boring and mundane.  I'm gonna give you the back story ...  their we were, eating sushi and having beer from Brazil.  I receive a kick in the knee as a man, who resembled that of a Greek statue from the Hellenistic era, walks by our table.  Drama Queen swiftly whispers across the table, "That's him!"  I say, "Who is 'him'?"  "The manager....," she sighs.  I'm about to gag on my sashimi at this point and ask (why do I do it?), "Have you talked to him?"  She responds, "No.  He's too perfect."  "Um, he's a human being... I seriously doubt he's perfect," I say sarcastically.  I get the look of death.

Fast forward 7 months.  So, here we are, in the wake of U.S.S. Manager.  Or more rightly, U.S.S. Drama Queen.  To sum up what happened.  She spoke to him; they became friends; they communicated via text and phone; they never saw each other outside of the restaurant; he starts dating a girl; DQ went to dinner at said restaurant and saw Manager & Chicky having dinner; DQ feels betrayed.  Ok.  I understand some of DQ's problem.  But... BUT, she set herself up for a let down because A) He never asked her out; B) They were JUST friends; C) They never went on a date in all this time, hell, they never saw each other outside of the restaurant.  (I'm reiterating to make a point.)

I'm just curious... didn't DQ ever see "He's Just Not That Into You?"  I don't care what gender you are... what your situation is... this movie applies to most everyone.  People seriously read too much into things, especially where "relationships" are concerned. 

As a cranky man, I don't want some needy chick calling me or, basically, stalking me.  It's not cute, endearing, or whatever.  Men are simple. If they like you, they will say so. There is no secret code, hand signals or "Where's Waldo" for our feelings. 

My point... Don't be a douche, it scares people.  Be yourself, most people like that better.  Having a boyfriend/girlfriend is not a requirement in life... it only seems that way.  If people ask you about it, you should say, "Why do you care?"  Seriously, if someone is asking about your love life, apparently they don't have one that is fulfilling enough.  Tell them to go home and seduce their boyfriend/husband with a strip tease and some porn--- they will most definitely be fulfilled then.

Crazy people are abundant.  Try your best to not be one of them.
