Dr. Love

As you are all quite aware, I am single.



However, I do have a lot of guy friends and co-workers... and co-workers that I consider friends.

Sometimes I like to stick my nose into their personal business-- especially their romantic business. Shame on me, I know.



After reviewing some of the following conversations, I realize I may want to keep my love advice to myself, but here goes:

Re: my co-worker and a friend of his
ME " Well can't you two just date? I mean you're gay, and he's gay soo..."
Co-worker: insert polite laughter and pity smile here
Note: I've acted as if he could date just about any of his gay friend's and it could just be THAT simple. I'm sure he's over my opinions.


Re: a girl my friend had recently started seeing
ME "So how are things going?"
Friend "She doesn't have much of a personality"
ME "Just take her to an amusement park. Everyone is fun at an amusement park"



Re: I spied a cute new girl in another department for my co-worker
ME "So you saw the new girl right? Do you like her?"
Co-worker "I haven't met her"
ME "I know. But do you like her?"
Co-worker: insert blank stare here
Note: I 1,000% believe in lust at first sight.



Re: my overall opinion on my co-worker's love life after he'd told me a few stories
ME "We need to find you a girl that's... well... not a b****"

I know I know.... you are all just aching to ask me your tough love related questions now aren't you?! ; )

P.S. This goes both ways. A cute guy in a suit came in last week, and I heard (unsolicitied) input from just about everyone who works with or near me.

although I shouldnt agree with any of these...
I dated a guy who was amazingly attractive but had all the personality of a teaspoon, so, erm, I did actually go to an amusement park (londons winter wonderland) with him in the hopes it would make him more fun. It didnt. I stopped answering his calls soon after.
Clearly your not the only one who thinks like this! xxx

hahaha! this post made me laugh, you're not too far off on most of the usual advice [given AND received]. these days, i just smile and nod, because apparently when you haven't been single for a very long time, no one believes you anyway :P

Hahaha! Yep, sometimes dating advice flies out from my mouth and I realize I should be the one taking my own advice. Ooops!

Believer in lust (aka those little butterflies) at first sight. Maybe it's not love, but it SURE is lust.

I survive at work listening to every other persons love life. And thoroughly enough it and it makes me think I should of been a shrink....

You're a million dollar match maker in the making :)

This si so cute...and umm excuse me who doesn't love an amusement park? really they must be a communist if they don't like amusment parks. and wait all gay people don't love all the other gay people? Damn! I have been following the wrong cult!

Tabitha Lynn said...

Hahaha because M is balding, okay fine basically bald, I always tell girls to go for a guy with one small physical flaw lol. Because he's still attractive just bald. Terrible right it sounds so superficial lol.
