Aaaaaand we're back... or at least I am.
It's been a long, arduous break from love-blogging, but the time has come where I feel the need to begin again. I can not say the same for my fellow writers, but maybe someday they will come back and tell you there stories. Or maybe not, who knows.
So it's been a solid 5 to 6 months since I last updated on my love life. But don't worry, I haven't fallen madly in love, so you haven't missed too much. I did have a summer full of boy situations and kissing - I try to keep things as exciting as possible. Someday I may share some of the stories from this summer, as they are pretty entertaining, but for now I must tell you about The Youngin'.
Okay, so this boy is not THAT much younger than me, only a year and some change. I mean, it's nothing like when I kissed Squints and then found out he was only 17. There are many guys I know that are a year younger than me and it wouldn't bother me one bit, but for some reason The Youngin' just seems SO YOUNG.
I've been (kind of?) dating him for the last 3 weeks. "Kind of" meaning that we've spent loads of time together and kissed and all that jazz, but haven't really ever talked about it.
How typical of me.
This time we've spent together has been enjoyable. We are very similar in our interests and our opinions. We both look at the world in a very similar manner, which is refreshing and has lead to some very deep, philosophical discussions. But I've been very hesitant about the whole thing because of his age and because sometimes when we're talking, he just seems so young and immature. And then about 4 days ago I came to the most game changing realization:
HE IS BORING!
No really, he is. How I went for 3 weeks without realizing this, I still am not positive. It is potentially because I have so much hilarity and personality, that I can pretty much make up for any lack that a person has. But you know what I finally realized? He has never made me really laugh. Maybe calling The Youngin' boring is drastic, but I honestly can't recall a time when I've really been excited or thrilled to be around him. The real problem that I have with him is that he doesn't laugh at my jokes! The other day, I was just talking like normal with my roommate and we were dying of laughter, and The Youngin' was just sitting there, not laughing, and making me feel dumb. Multiple times he commented on how crazy we were being and how we were "odd." Not a fan.
To me, sense of humor is the biggest selling point in a guy. It's so important for me because I laugh more than most anyone I know, so when he doesn't make me laugh and doesn't laugh with me, then I have a serious problem. And such is the case with this boy.
So what do I do now? How do I just tell a boy that I don't want to date him because I find him dull? I obviously can't tell him that, but I don't know how to speak my mind otherwise. Oh, and did I mention that I was the first girl he ever kissed, which makes me even more hesitant to break things off and break his tender little heart? Bah!
