Time to continue the dorm adventures of Natasha....
My roommates are decent looking. I'm not attracted to them but I guess other ladies are....a bit too much. Their shenanigans got me thinking about how people juggle seeing more than 1 person at a time. I would think it's hard enough dealing with one person let alone trying to figure out a schedule for 3 that would work out so they never meet/see each other. I'm exhausted for these guys. Seriously. I can't keep track of them so I have no idea how they do. At this point in time, I should probably name my roommates. For the sake of the blog we'll call one Trainer Man and the other Chillin'.
So, Chillin' went out of town for about a week and a half. That gave Trainer Man some alone time. All I can say is 3 girls, 7 days. I only know one of their names. They seem like really nice girls but do they honestly NOT know? Indian Girl (that's what I call her. Obviously not to her face. Yet.) showed up on Valentine's Day while I was sitting on the couch watching t.v and introduced herself as Trainer Man's girlfriend. All I could say was, "uh huh". Sweetie, hate to break the news but you are NOT his girlfriend cuz Nicole (the only one who's name I know) was over the day before.
Chillin' came back from his mini vacation and informed me that he has a girlfriend now and he's "gonna try not to cheat". That's nice, I guess. At least he's going to try....WHAT?! Why is 'trying' even an option! Just try 'NOT DOING IT'. He's not the only one. And by the way, that lasted about a week before he told me he has to find someone else to pass the time with....
This has been a topic of many happy hour conversations. The fact that most men do see multiple girls at one time, and even if you are lucky enough to tie one down and he's met your crazy family(and still talks to you) and has facebooked all your friends, chances are he's probably seeing someone else too. It's horrible and I wish I didn't believe/know it but it's true. I'm not saying that EVERYONE is like that but 92% of the male population is doing it. My friend once said "you know what's sad, I'm the only one of my guy friends who hasn't cheated on his girlfriend".....yeah, that is sad. He also told me that if I wanted to find a nice guy, I am to move out of NYC. He might be a genius.
I think it's the combination of being male AND living in NYC that's the problem. There are statistically more women than men in NYC, so men instinctually know that for every 1 of them there are 8 women, and therefore not only can be selective, but can also have enough girls to hang out with to fill their week. It also doesn't help that from that limited pool of men, 65% are gay. This is NYC, after all. Meanwhile, us women are secretly sabataging each other and shooting ice daggers out of our eyes that say "hold up bitch! I claimed that man" when we should be uniting against these naughty boys.
It's rough out there and I don't have an answer. But I can tell you this, I'm looking forward to meeting that 8% that isn't going to call you Brittney when your name is Sarah.
Next topic of discussion: Exes. Oh boy.
