do u think people think im lame for not having a gf?

RE: do u think people think im lame for not having a gf?
You want to talk lame, I'm a case study.

- I'm single.
- I have two cats (my family jokes that I'm a cat lady already and one of me dearest ambitions for my old age is to be The Cat Lady :p).
- I'm turning 29 in a month and I've lived back with my parents since I graduated college.

Why don't I take my lameness seriously?

- Being single works for me. I'd rather be single and hang out with cool people than be in a terrible or boring relationship simply to say to people that have a boyfriend.
- I love my cats and I find the notion that I'm a cat lady to be funny, not loserly. I have this idea about getting those family decals people put on the back windows of their cars (The dad, the mom, the teenager boy, the little girl, the baby and the dog, you know?) only doing just the girl and then doing a line of cats across the whole bottom of the window.
- Who cares how old I am?
- Living with my parents since graduating college has allowed me to pay off my student loans and begin saving a down payment to buy a house. I'm in a great financial situation because of my lame parental living situation and I'm thinking that come the new year if I haven't found a place I'd even consider buying I'll start looking for an apartment.

I occasionally get self conscious about what other people think of me or my situation, and then I remember, "Hey, fuck them. They don't know me, or my life, or my goals."

I occasionally do a self-examination to see if I'm satisfied with my life, and when I find that I'm not satisfied I figure out a way to change my life or my situation so that I am satisfied, or am more satisfied than I was before. For instance, I recently decided that I need to be more social, so I've joined some meet ups in my area to make some new friends and am making concerted efforts to plan more things to do with my existing friends.

From the outside looking in, I'm a total loser. From the inside looking out, I'm navigating my life in such a way that I can best achieve my goals and live a life I think is worth living.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
