I bottle things up inside, but I didn’t always have Great Expectations for my dating life. Get this, last night I broke my resolution and smoked two packs of cigarettes. To ease the pain that comes from being alone, for once. That actually happened. What does this mean? Actually, that’s when I honestly thought about singles events with Great Expectations.

Nothing that can’t be fixed. Figured I’d boost my dating life with a matchmaking service like Great Expectations Dallas. Probably isn’t a bad idea. Why do I bring it up? We were at Julie’s soccer finals in Denver two weeks ago, great aunt Judy asked me if I’ve found my true love. I don’t know why they even care. My response was, “that’s none of your business.”

There’s nowhere to hide when “The Twerp” (my nephew, age 9) mindlessly kept jabbing me about my personal matters. I quipped to all of them: “Hey look, do you even know me?”

Guess what? Each one of them scoffed. Irritated, I went to the gym just to get some perspective. But I couldn’t get it out of my head! I didn’t learn a thing. Doug, who was a fellow Ram in high school (go Rams!) advised that I browse the singles profiles at Great Expectations. I said, “Fine, okay.” Should have thought of it myself. I can speak highly of Great Expectations Dallas.

At the time, matchmaking was kinda foreign because I’m a traditionalist of sorts. I showed up already a little anxious, so much so that I got a little queasy. That mess didn’t stop a great time. The evening was full of crazy-fun mingling. The truth is I’ll never forget all the many enjoyable people I met, all available singles.

Appearing at these amazing Great Expectations Dallas singles events, I met a collection of dynamite friends who certainly share a parallel understanding when it comes to dating. Now I can stop letting so many people give their two cents about me not dating. Astoundingly enough, doing things in Dallas with Great Expectations is a good time and care-free social experience.
