Now, I couldn’t characterize myself as terribly satisfied being picky and be 100% truthful. Even then, I’m not uncomfortable about it, either. I just bring it up on the blogosphere as an ear-catching personal tidbit foreshadowing what I am about to explain in grand style.
Last Monday yours truly was talking to Stacey, thinking of joining the Phoenix Great Expectations dating service. Today, I type to the blogosphere as a fully satisfied member of the singles network. No kidding, and I almost don’t believe it myself! Its very comfortable and full of nice people! If you have read my old blog, you’re probably thinking, “You totally owe me an explanation.”
Well, I saw these Great Expectations Reviews and can really get behind their approach. They’re for the serious singles who know dating isn’t a game.
Quite frankly, I’d never been interested in this silly social phenomenon a lot of singles have christened “The Dating Game.” I faced it more than anyone should. Every night readers nagg, “Are you two serious yet?” and “You should date!”
“Ugh, and double ugh.” I banter right back, without missing a beat. “Not after that last blind date you set me up on.”
“Don’t be silly,” they say. “You have no way to know that!”
Leave it to my friend (on a good day) 
Stacey Feldman. She sets reality directly to my core 99% of the time. Caring souls are always there for fresh advice. She made a good point, and I thank her for it.
Returning to the theme of this essay. As I selected from more than three hundred quality singles for my first Great Expectations date, I realized something real. Over the last year, I hadn’t entertained too many emotional great expectations for dating and myself in the serendipitous journey of this world. Being single isn’t so bad, specifically if you use the freedom to date. Holding great expectations works terrifically on a cynics social life.
