The Ridiculous Thing Is...

I've officially determined that I'm a good guy. Perhaps even a catch.

I had an ex-girlfriend, one that I broke up with, tell me tonight that she wished guys were like me.

[ExGF]: i think i'm either going to become a nun or lesbian
CDDye: Why?
[ExGF]: because i have given up on boys
[ExGF]: i wish they were more like you
CDDye: Hold on. You do remember who you're talking to right?

Note my obvious and instant incredulity. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. The truth is though, the more I thought about it (and the more I let my ego inflate) the more I realized that she was right. I'm a damn good boyfriend!

I think my problem in a lot of relationships (or the pseudo-relationships I've found myself in) is an unwillingness to play the game. It's sad that that's what it comes down to. Maybe it's a symptom of the age group, but it seems like no one can be up front and honest about everything.
This leads to problems for me as I am apparently incapable of keeping my thoughts and/or feelings to myself. (See: This freaking website) What some of you may not realize is that I'm pretty much like this in real life too. Give me a microphone and a stage, and I'll pour it all out to you, most of the time with a grin and some wise-cracks, but I'll tell you what's going on in my life. There are certain subjects (namely my emotions, or lack thereof) that won't be discussed, but if you want a play-by-play I can definitely do that.

Here's the honest truth though- I'm unwilling to change. You're not going to find me playing games any time soon. I am, and will forever be, Chris, and once we break up, you'll like that!

There is something really wrong with me.
