I'm single, and get told often from friends that, "I can't think of any girl that's good enough for you." Or well, something a long the lines of that.

I don't drink, I don't smoke. I'm a straight A student. I'm a Christian. I'm genuine and appreciate simpleness. I'm very caring and try to help others when they're down. The list my friends and I can come up with goes on and on. "We need to find you a nice girl."

Maybe because I hangout with the wrong crowd; Looking in the wrong places. Meeting people at parties? Probably not the best place because everyone there is getting wasted. I'm not desperate, I'm not looking for a date. However, I can't help but notice the situation I'm in. More mature than the people I'm meeting? Sure that's a possibility.

Well I guess that's the way it goes. It seems like, I don't have enough faults in my character. "Dennis deserves someone better than me."

In a way, I do have to "look down" on others. There's this strange pedestal that I get put on for being who I am, and like a high jumper who made one record jump, I'm being told that I can keep on going higher and higher and being encouraged to do so. Well it's kind of lonely at the top. And all the decisions I make could be analyzed as "Oh he could do so much better." Well there's not much room for improvement when the bar is high and the scope is cramped.

I don't want to seem like I'm looking down, but I don't want to lower myself either. I'm rambling now, I hope in 2009, I'll meet lots of new people.
