<editorsnote>Hi, I'm Jen Friel, and we here at TNTML examine the lives of nerds outside of the basements and into the social media, and dating world. We have over 75 peeps that write about their life in real time. (Real nerds, real time, real deal.) Sit back, relax, and enjoy some of the stories!!</editorsnote>
By the time you are reading this, I shall be on a plane on my way to NYC!!! Whoop whoop!! So stoked, man. I will be staying in a hostel tonight, followed by sitting my butt in a bunch of meetings tomorrow. UUUGGHHH!!! So so SO excited!! We've got so many cool things coming up, I am BUURRSSTTIIINNNNGGG at the seams with excitement. BAH!
Well it's either excitement, or a gnarly case of diarrhea. I sure hope it's just excitement because that could be messy on the plane.
AWWKKWWARRDDD
Either way, this is one of my favorite songs about New York, have a listen!!
Editor's Note: Shina Rae is a newbie nerdy artist to our great city of Los Angeles, and has agreed to come on board and document her search for love in this big city. True story ... Cause like this is all happening ... like now. Like right right now ... Hit it Shina!
Yup. Really.
Here's a song for you all, btw ...
I am as shocked as anyone, I suppose.... I didn't think after meeting me twice and a few texts I could've even found a boyfriend. Serio, I'm more excited about shuffling than I am about seeing this guy. Sad (for him) right??
I know some people move at like warp speed, like Yeezy falling in love with a porn start & honeymooning on the dance floor quick, but not this lady. I got a hell of a life, but it's not that one.....
Let's go out on some dates & get to know each other, exchange pleasantries, last names & even a little yum yum saliva before we decide to change our FB stats to "It's complicated", K? I needta know you're going to be there before I bare all, and you're not doing so well when you play the "I missed you" card eeeeeeeeeeh, next!
So I told him, politely (& mind you this is my first break up with someone I didn't know I was dating, so I wanted to be gentle), I was overwhelmed with the attention I've been getting from boys out here and I'm not interested in dating anyone. TRUE STORY.
And so believable that, do you know what he told me..... c'mon now guess!! It's really quite entertaining, and not at all demeaning, diminishing, or just downright disgusting.....
He told me, "yeah, I'm a good guy, I just wanna see you get what you want, most guys they just see you're new out here and they wanna get at you before you're tainted." Well doesn't that make me feel all gooey inside. Thanks for equating me to, well, a whore. I mean, I've obviously had sex before, been in relationships, none of those people scarred me so deeply. Maybe he was implying that men (himself not included, of course) are really shitty out here, and they make girls dirty?? ICK, well now I really don't want to date anyone.... kay thanks!
*side note: As I was typing this up I got a text message from this same guy saying "Damn, you deleted me off your friends list too? WoW"
Are you FRIGGIN SERIOUS with this SHIZZZZZNITT??? I didn't actually delete him, in fact I had never even accepted him as a friend. I told him I didn't delete anything & he responded..... "Awww, I want you back, I'm going to request you again"
Good luck with that!
SWITCH UP - after this AWESOME, um, experience, I checked out a weekly event a friend throws and just happened upon a dope musician who is super cute and you know what, I don't miss him, but I am looking forward to seeing him in a few days, or so, you know whenevs. We're texting......about music, not feelings yet!
Option not Priority, right?? But YAY!
Maybe in a few WEEKS or MONTHS, I'll feel this way ...
