I know I'm not the only one. I know I'm not the only one getting constant spam from dating sites. And I know I'm not the only one getting really sick and tired of it.
I swear, everyday my inbox and Blackberry are hit with messages from OK Cupid, Tiger Singles, and yes, even Big Beautiful Singles (Contact thousands of big beautiful singles in your area!!!).
Please.
I get it. Yes, I am not married, therefore I am considered single. But you don't have to rub it in my face. I don't need a free weekend at Match.com, and I don't want to meet any singles in my area whether they're big and beautiful or short and skinny, I just don't care!
In fact, these little messages do more than just tick me off—they make me pretty depressed. My little Blackberry sings a sweet tune and I think YES! A message just for me!
Instead of it being something sweet from Mr. Big, or something funny from a girlfriend, it's Cupid with his stupid arrow ready to nail me with a "Join the Best Dating Site on Earth" (what's the best one on Mars? Venus?) message. And then I just want to cry.
Why can't being single be my little secret...well and to those that see my naked ring finger? It gets depressing each week when I find out someone else I know is engaged, married, or having babies...when yep! Society hates me, because I'm single. And now all the dating sites know it, because that's just how tired the world is of my single antics (you know, like buying and devouring entire pizzas with coupons or $3 bottles of wine to enjoy alone, in one sitting).
And I know what's coming. E-mails about becoming and joining the cat ladies of the world. Yep. Because I have one cat, and I'm single, makes me desperate and lonely and I'm doomed to be a cat lady for eternal life. You caught me government! Along with those pizzas, I buy bags of Friskies dammit!
What's a girl to do? I think I need some knitting needles.
