Singles Rejoyce: Find Great Expectations Forever

June 2nd, 2009

I couldn’t characterize myself as terribly happy living alone and not be lying. However, I’m not uncomfortable about it, either. I only bring it up in this blog as an ear-catching detail foreshadowing what I am prepared to unravel!

A week ago today I was walking the dog, Corey, thinking of signing up for the Phoenix Great Expectations dating service. As of this minute, I sit to you as a fully satisfied member of the matchmaking service. Totally, and I almost don’t believe it myself! It’s great! If you’ve been paying attention, you’re probably thinking, “Stop blabbering and tell me about it already.”

So, I noticed this dating site called Great Expectations and liked what I saw. They’re for quality and professional singles who think dating should have a point.

Quite frankly, I’d never been interested in this silly social phenomenon a lot of singles have named “The Dating Game.” I heard it more than you know. Every night readers ask, “You’re still single? ” and “Please tell me you two are dating.”

“Nonsense,” I say to them, smiling ear to ear. “Take a look around, I’m not missing much.”

“You’re as ridiculous as you are hilarious,” they level with me. “You haven’t dated in a year, you wouldn’t know!”

That’s just my best friend The One-And-Only (hehe) Trisha Wilson. She beams the best ideas to my mind 99% of the time. People I depend on . No countering that, and I thank her for it.

Returning to the point of this blog entry. As I picked from hundreds of outfits (hah) and desirable, honest singles for my first singles event with Great Expectations, I realized something true. For the longest time, I hadn’t had too many figurative great expectations for dating in the serendipitous journey of this world. Being single isn’t so bad, especially if you take the opportunity to meet new people. Embracing your own great expectations works terrifically for a caring soul.
