I think probably - I think, you know, when you're first dating somebody, if they're just not that physical with you, if they don't want to make concrete plans with you, you know, if they're sort of ambiguous about where everything is going, I think that's a pretty good sign that they're not into you.
If you date, you will meet your share of weirdos and jerks. That is as sure as death and taxes.
A friend of mine told a story about a date with a guy she was really excited about: He stood her up. He then called her, begging her forgiveness and giving some excuse. She told him to get lost, telling him that he only gets one shot with her, and he blew it.
Maybe this is just me, because my priorities have changed as I’ve gotten older. But now I don’t want to be ‘sort of dating’ someone. I don’t want to be ‘kinda hanging out’ with someone. I don’t want to spend a lot of energy suppressing all my feelings so I appear uninvolved. I want to be involved.
I've never tried to pass myself off as anything more than a comedian who wrote a dating book.
Bored with the same type of misery over and over and over again.
Busy' is another word for 'asshole'. 'Asshole' is another word for the guy you're dating.
You picked a lemon, throw it away lemonade is overrated. Freaks should remain at the circus, not in your apartment. You already have one asshole. You don’t need another. Make a space in your life for the glorious things you deserve. Have faith.
We're taught that in life, we should try to look on the bright side. Not in this case. In this case, assume rejection first. Assume you're the rule, not the exception. It's liberating. But we also know it's not an easy concept. -He's not just into you
If the guy you’re dating doesn’t seem to be completely into you, or you feel the need to start ‘figuring him out,’ please consider the glorious thought that he might just not be that into you. And then free yourself to go find someone that is.
The whole point of the book is to say, 'You're not alone. We get it,' ... For me, a breakup changed my entire life. I was a mess. I really got rocked, and I ended up turning it into a positive thing.
was confident enough in himself to let me enjoy the relationship at my own pace. He was so in the moment all the time.
I don't have to edit myself, ... I get to be me, warts and all, and that's ultimately what people want, and to trust each other implicitly.
It's the prettiest place on the planet, ... My childhood was like a dream. It's like the last Mayberry.
