*Whew* Rough day

August 31, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Today, has been a really tough day. I’m feeling very unattractive, fat, dumb and uninformed. I really have a problem comparing myself to other people; my irrational nature is yelling at me and my rational self is trying to grab the reigns. I’m freaking out cause I am scared that I will never get married because I am weird, over-analyze, overly-sensitive, slightly neurotic, and kinda of still live in dream world. And I have been reading all this information about how Christian guys don’t date any more and all this depressing stats about how Christian women never find love.

I want ice cream.

So today was interesting. I was in Tennessee and driving home when I get a text message from a number I didn’t recognize. I can’t even express what happened so I’m just going to write out my texts.

Random #:What’s Up?

Me: Who is this?

R #: Jackie

Me: Jackie Clay?

R #: Jackie Barton

Me: How did you get this number?

R #: I can’t remember

Me: How did you find it?

R #: Well, i had this number written on a slip of paper

Me: This has to be a prank. Who is this? Because my last name is Barton

R #: That’s weird

Me: Why did you text someone you didn’t know?

R #: I wanted to know who you were

Me: Ok…ay?

R #: Oh. Cool. So, I’m really bored. Can we talk?

Me: Are you a guy or girl?

R#: Girl. But, I go for both.

Me: Ah, sorry, I’m not.

R#: Haha. I have a gf right now.

Me: Cool.

R #: Sorry. I meant to type guy. That was a type-o.

Me: Oh, so you are a guy? With the name Jackie?

R #: That’s a nickname.

Me: Great.

R #: So, what do you go for?

Me: Uh, I’m sorry?

R #: If you’re not bi, what are you?

Me: Very straight.

R #: Oh. Cool. Are you currently in a relationship.

Me: Yeah. His name is Joseph.

R #: Cool. My gf’s name is shawna.

Me: Cool. I really love Joseph — He is my soulmate.

R #: Same with shawna. We have so much chemistry. When we make love, fireworks!

R #: Is it the same with Joseph?

Me: We are waiting for marriage to have sex but our chemistry is great and we love being with each other. And really you have no business asking me those questions…bored or not.

R#: Sorry! Geez. Didn’t think it was that big a deal.

*I stop texting at this point*

R #: Shawna is amazing.

Me: Great. So is Joseph.

R #: Yeah.

*No response*

R #: I’m soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bored.

Me: Sorry. Read a book. Watch a movie

*No response*

You can’t make this stuff up. It’s all true.
