I found love!

 My friends kept saying how they were surprised that a nice guy like me still didn't have a girlfriend.  There I was 32 years old no children,  no baby mama drama, college educated, own place, good job,  and dashing good looks (LOL), yet still I came home to an empty bed.  It's not like I wasn't out there trying to find love.   My problem was I was trying too damn hard.  I have been on speed dates, dating websites, crazy blind dates, and in a so called relationship with this one girl that was a complete waste of time.  I spent many hours perfecting my profile on I need a damn date dot com and still nothing.   Then last year around this time something changed, I stopped trying and just chilled.

 It was a cold snowy day in New York City, I had just left a concert supporting a friend, normally on a day like that I would have gone home and watched some HBO.   A little voice in my head told me to take the 6 train down to 86th street to do a little shopping at Best Buy.   As I came out of the station I ran into my friend and fellow choir member Kay.  As it turns out she was bored too and was browsing around.  Anyway we decided to browse around together and it was one of the best nights of my life.  I was dazzled by her warm smile, intelligent conversation, and sweet personality. On top of that she was fine!!! (LOL) We ended up in Barnes and Nobles goofing off, we didn’t buy a damn thing just walked around the store section by section, then we sat down in the café area and talked until the store closed. I don't know what it was about her but she had me feeling all warm and fuzzy on the inside.

After the store closed I decided that I was walking her home, (with her permission of course). It was freezing outside, yet there we were floating down Madison Avenue like it was summertime.  We stood outside singing to each other and making videos with our cell phones.   Did I mention it was cold outside? LOL   That was one of the best nights I had in my life it was like I was talking to my best friend, we just blended so well together.  I thought to myself, “Why haven’t you talked this much to her before, look what you have been missing”.
 
I had been trying so hard to find the right girl and all time she was right in front of my face. The point I am trying to make for those who feel like they can’t find love is to relax and stop trying so damn hard.  Stop looking for love in all the wrong places and let love find you.   That same night I deleted my profile on I need a damn date dot com and today we are still going strong.
