So last week I went on a cruise. Not just any cruise, mind you, I went on an LDS singles cruise. (Pause for dramatic effect) TheWriter and I went to the opera the night before I left on my cruise. Having never been to the opera, I thought it might be kind of interesting. And it was. But it was also long (over three hours), set in Spain but sung in French, and too warm in the theater. Whenever I said anything to TheWriter, this lady in front of us turned her head as if to growl at us. Meanwhile, the couple next to us (older) were getting frisky and the guy behind us was loudly open mouth chewing his gum. We went back to my house after and decided to watch a movie. Yeah, I ended up making out with TheWriter. I felt so guilty after. I think TheWriter is a really cool girl; I think her and I should be friends. But I just don't feel a romantic interest in her. So why did I make out with her? Because I could. If it sounds stupid, that's cause it is stupid. When you know you can get away with something, I guess it makes it pretty easy to do.
On Saturday, Sugarloaf and I flew out with Arches. Arches is a girl Sugarloaf has known for a few years and who agreed to be roommates with me, Sugarloaf and TheCaptain for our cruise. I immediately had a huge crush on her because she is smart, pretty and nice. After one week sharing a room with her though, my crush is gone. She is way cool but most certainly not the girl for me.
On the cruise, I met lots of girls. The first girl I clicked with was Shart. We hung out on the second night and really clicked. I was honestly worried that perhaps I wasn't going to meet any more girls on the cruise cause I would be with Shart the whole time. Well, I didn't have any reason to worry, after that first hangout, Shart avoided me the rest of the week. We said hi and talked a bit from time to time but any interest that she might have had in me was gone. It was very frustrating. At the beginning of the cruise, I was sure that I would date her when we came back. Now, I am not even comfortable asking her on a date.
By the end of the cruise, I was so ready to come home. I was convinced that there was never going to be someone for me. I have brightened up a little. Ariel was on the cruise and she said some kind words to me. Still, I am as frustrated as I have ever been about my dating life.

THECAPTAIN had a good time with Tripp, the female species on the vessel were mean and it was a tough crowd to be around for sometime.
ReplyDeleteHa ha. When I read you went on an LDS cruise. I died laughing.... Oh man. So it was exlusively for singles to meet up? ha ha
ReplyDeleteWell, not exclusively. About 400 LDS singles went on the cruise. Another 800 or so people were on the boat that were not LDS singles but I am sure they felt dominated by us. Every competition was between Mormons, every karaoke song was by Mormons, it was probably a little much. But yeah, it was like 7 straight days of munch and mingles after church.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I think that is hilarious. Don't worry though, I feel like a dry desert too...my dating life is definitely on the rocks.
ReplyDeleteI went on that cruise last year - oh wow. LOL - I understand how they can be.
ReplyDeleteAnd as far as making out with someone just because you could - well I'm not one to point fingers - I've done it too!! BBBUUUTTTT I think the fact that you feel guilty is probably a good thing right?? :)
they actually have LDS SINGLES CRUISES....ahhhh hahaha... why do I find that sooo funny? Was it fun? I bet it would be. I'd go on one. ha. that's awesome.
ReplyDeleteThey go every year. This is a huge group. I can give you the info for it if you want, Lachele. Smaller groups go all the time but this one group has about 400 people.
