extremely well written rant grover, well said and very true.

I am not sure where it started or where it may end. Friends, lovers or friends who are lovers. I love my friends and I am sure that my friends love me. But why do I feel so alone? Is it because I have no family or is it because my true friends are not close? Maybe it is because I really do not have any "real" friends. I haven’t the answer. I feel the love from my long distance friends but I want to give them a hug but I can’t. I was once in love with a friend and our relationship lasted 13 years and now it’s gone and I do feel empty at most times. I do know that I am an honest and caring person, so why can’t I find love? I get along with most people; I am not pushy or clingy. I think that it is because I am too selective, yes, too selective. Isn’t it OK to be “too” selective? I know what I want and what I am looking for in a friend and lover and I will not settle for less. I will die a lonely death if it requires settling. I have a lot to offer to anyone and I am not just giving it away. Yes I have made my mistakes in past relationships but that is part of the learning experience of life and God knows that I have learned about life, women and relationships. In my quest to find my soul mate I have seen, “Are all of the good men taken?”, or “Where are all of the good men”, we are here, just open your eyes and look. Be open to change, relocate, date interracially or be willing to date someone older or younger than you or with children.
I just needed to rant here and talk to my computer because I haven’t anyone else to talk to. Thank you to my friends for listening. I send much love to you all and have a wonderful and spectacular night, with lots of love, Grover

There's only one thing you need, my friend. And it's my answer to all of life's problems. PIZZA!
