What's the Point?

So, as I have passed my blog link around all willy nilly, I have gotten a pretty good revue from all who read – and criticism that applies more to sites I’m looking for a job on than my actual blog. Thanks to those who actually looked at what I wrote. Y’all are awesome. While I was sharing, I was working on my own relationship status and the like – and two different ladies of interest I spoke with said this same quote:

“I don’t want to be in a relationship right now; my past relationships were so much work.”

First, I laughed. Yeah, I’m rude. Sorry. Then I asked why they equated relationships with work. With the direct correlation to my current focus, why not delve into it. That leads to the meat of this post: what are you expecting from “The Resume”?

“The Resume” is but a tool to use for suggestions as to what to do in certain situations, how to handle certain scenarios, why people act certain ways, etc etc. I encourage you to take what we say and do here and ponder how you may be able to apply it to your own life. 

Write yourself an actual resume of your relationship past. You would be surprised how motivating it is – whether to show yourself you CAN do better than that one guy or to prove that you ARE worth that woman’s attention… or just contemplate what your ideal significant other could be like and how your resume would intertwine. Sure, you can work with sites like OK Cupid, eHarmony, Match.com and the like…

Or you can make a free relationship profile and test it out without keyboards between you. Try out the free sites – they take away all the guess work – but you’ll be surprised how easy it would be for you to DIY (Do It Yourself).

Actually... that IS a good point.

 

The good news about this all: my word is not the gospel. Thankfully, there are MANY other people who know some things about relationships and they will be SO kind as to grace us with their wit, knowledge and humor. If you are interested in being a guest blogger (or know someone/someplace I should look for one), please let me know!

 

Together, we can... something something something.
