Last week I thought of giving up smoking. Not because of my health, but because I wanted to have a valid reason
for feeling like shit.
I was succesful...
in finding a valid reason.
I realized that I am
not meant to succeed
at anything.
Excuse me while I light another cigarette...
And yes... I am the freak in the picture.

"Love Song For No One" my Ass!!!!
Why is it that whenever I tell people that I'm think I'm better off by myself their normal reaction would be to roll their eyes at me as if to say "Yeah, right."? Why don't they believe me?
When I think about it I've always been by myself anyway. I mean I do have a bunch of friends that I absolutely adore but whenever this statement comes up it is usually used in the context of having a "partner", you know, that "one person that makes you whole" type of thing. I've only been in love twice in this lifetime and in both instances neither of the two became my actual official significant other. I don't even have a best friend for crying out loud.
So why do most people think I'm full of shit whenever I say that I won't mind being single forever? When did having a girlfriend become a requirement for a life worth living? Don't get me wrong. I don't mind falling in love. It just so happens that things didn't exactly work out the past 2 times that I was in that sort of situation. But that is perfectly fine with me. I know for a fact that they are both happy now and I, surprisingly, am happy too.
Knowing that I have great people in my life has been and will always be more than enough for me. I may end up wanting a girlfriend in the (very, very) distant future but I WILL NEVER NEED ONE.
