Single? Yeah, I thought as much. Why else would you be reading? But, I bet you're a certain type of single, and there are three brands of singularity on the market. You've got your Ningles (Needy I-need-someone-now Singles); your Wingles (I Want-someone-now Singles) and your Dingles ( Don't need-a relationship-right-now Singles). You've also got your hard-arse I-don't-need-no-man-to satisfy-me Singles, but we call those people Lesbians (no offense girls).....
Truth is, whether we're single or not, no man is an island. We all need interaction in our lives; some more than others. However, too often, we go into Jennifer Lopez mode and think we have to have that special someone in order to function. Why!?
Well, that show, Sex in the City, aint exactly helping us single people stamp out this negative view of our current relationship stutus' for starters. Every epsode, SJP sits at her outdated lap-top, perminantly set on 'Word 95', questioning her right to exist as (what we largley see) a perpetually single New Yorker. It's true! Watch any episode and you'll note that none of the main characters are totally comfortable with being single. "You're just nothing on the Manhattan social scene without a man", utters Samantha, the one who keeps half of New York's bedsheets warm in every episode but coincidentally, comes home alone. This is so obviously a case of that Ningle virus going around. Better wrap up guys, 'cos the worst's not over. Now, I'm an open minded chap and I understand that our brains sometimes flock south in the the winter -in that we think with our other head in tundratic times of temporary celibacy. But surley sex isn't the remedy. Ningles, you need to upgrade!
I'm not saying we're all little Samanthas, running about, that's just an extreme example. We do, however, need to see past these cold winds and look towards those tropical currents coming our way. Like I said, no man is an island. But there's a difference between the odd ship of tourists and fequent invasions, if you catch my drift. (Ok, I'll stop there with the puns).
Guys, we need to find some bras start burning them. Well, it's not OK to start seeting fire to things but it's OK to be single! We've got nothing to prove to anybody. Let J-Lo and Samantha bed hop like olympians. Frankly, the more they do it, the less we wanna. Single male role models out there inspire us all: partly because it makes the public want them more (and partly because ya just know some of them are gay). Relationships happen because you've met someone you reeeeally like and it's mutual, not because, like chunky wrist-watches, they make us men.
I say, if you're single, be proud and single. Yes, be a Pringle! (Though, for legal reasons, don't go releasing any products). Only registered users can write comments. Please login or register. Add as favourites (46) | Quote this article on your site
