What do you do?

Dating is interesting, and by interesting I mean it totally sucks. There is 1 question that makes me cringe and 90% of guys will ask this on a first date...

"What do you do?..." 

*FACE PALM*

If i chose to answer this question like a normal person, than this is when

1. My level of education defines my intelligence.
2. My degree (if I have one) defines my character and motivation.
3. My job defines my salary and future.
4. My hobbies define my physique (provides a visual for what's under my clothes), how outgoing I am, how much of his wallet i'm going to dig into etc.

Number 4 can be a downfall or the part where he puts me on a pedestal so needless to say, I usually skip the first 3 and jump straight to number 4 because if you can't hang with me, you can't hang.

 If you want to know if i'm a responsible, motivated and a successful woman, check my credit score. This question absolutely ruins the fun of getting to know someone and quite frankly, if I tell someone i'm in school for psychology, studying abnormal behaviors and mental illnesses on a FIRST date than he's likely to think, "Well that's interesting, but does it mean she's crazy too?"

ahhhh *double face palm*

Of course i am!! All girls are crazy but he has to find that out himself and trust me, a couple drinks deep, 3 stories in and he will see the crazy. Maybe the good kind, maybe the bad kind, maybe both. It's called being spontaneous and yeah spontaneity is wild and a little scary, it can cause regret and sometimes trouble which totally sucks but in exchange it can create

freedom 

and happiness

and surprise 

and love

 and isn't that what makes the best kind of stories about life?... and love?


Read a book.


In all honesty, what I want my dates to eventually see without asking is the spunky sometimes immature gal who loves adventure and who makes a huge effort to always be kind and considerate of others. Someone who knows her weaknesses as well as her cures for them. I know how to make people laugh and feel good about themselves because deep down, even though school feels endless and my life is a little stagnant, i'm going to make my life out of this because helping others with their problems brings me happiness!! Who knows what my salary will be at the end of the day but my whole life and future will be dedicated giving others love, appreciation, understanding, advice and hugs all while traveling the world in good company, eating good food, laughing at dirty jokes, and maybe doing some reckless shit along the way that gets me scuffed up and bruised. Is that so bad?

because, That's What I Do.

Yours Truly.
