There’s No Such Thing as Drama Free Dating
Everyone has it, even if they don’t want it or admit it.
With a year and a half of dating behind me, I have read many a dating profile. My friends have shared some treasures, as well. There is one recurring theme that has always bugged me: a good number of online profiles make some sort of reference to an aversion to drama.
No one wants it and everyone is claiming not to have it. I have a very sneaky suspicion that many of these people are lying.
We are all just a group of humans wandering through life doing the best we can. Some days we we knock it out of the park. Other days, we just can’t. Life happens. It’s not always pretty. It’s all okay.
I absolutely understand the fact that there are crazy people out there. Trust me on this.
No one’s interested in coming home and finding their pet rabbit in a boiling pot. I get it. Everyone gets it.
Do we even need to make such proclamations then? I don’t know a whole laundry list of people that are lining up hoping that someone is going to come into their lives and stir the pot. Google all of their ex-boyfriends or their ex-wife and send them messages on social media. That’s drama. That’s legit…
