You guys have borne the burden of being my friends the numerous times I've said emo stuff (like "I don�t think I'll ever get married"). However! I have now improved and refined the idea, and managed to distill the essence of the emoness.

Now with 50% more emo!

Full argument will not be disclosed here! So that next time when I whine to a friend at least the first time will be something remotely fresh and they won't have to grind their teeth in secret behind those smiles I see when I begin to say stuff like "I don't think-"

I know it's not easy to see me everyday.

So far I haven't met anyone who I like enough to contemplate spending time with, and I'm not good enough for the people who do interest me.

I guess it'd be like tying them down. I'm not perfect. Admittedly, neither are the people in question, but I like to believe they deserve better than a slightly pudgy, not handsome, geek with a propensity to spend significant amounts of time on stuff like computer games.

Perhaps part of this results from the fact that I have a greatly reduced amount of patience nowadays. I wouldn�t subject other people to myself, especially not for extended periods of time.
