There are plenty of fish so you won't die hungry

Take a look at this cartoon. Does it seem familiar for both men and women? I'm sure it does. I'm sure it strikes a chord.

I saw this cartoon this morning and then if by magic I read the following in this book.

"There is never a shortage of women or feminine energy. If a man feels that there aren't enough women, or that life isn't giving him what he wants, he is simply negating his relationship to the feminine. This sense of starvation - "life is not sustaining me" or "there are no good women" - is usually rooted in a man's early childhood relationship with his mother. Life itself is the feminine. There is never a shortage of feminine energy, only a resistance to receiving, trusting and embracing it."

I guess what he is saying is that there are plenty of fish in the sea and you have to go fishing from time to time.

The New Zealand General Election is coming up soon and judging from what I can tell, it looks like there is a possibility of a change of government. I've always said that if you live in a democracy and if you have the chance to vote then go and vote. If you don't vote, then you have absolutely no right to complain for the next three years or four years or whatever the time will be.

The same goes about complaining that you are single. If you don't get out there and at the very least show your face then you have no right whatsoever to complain.

For us introverts, especially in the winter, it is very easy to sit down on the sofa, turn the heater on, grab a blanket, switch on Netflix and have the time of your life. If you do that from time to time, then everything is fine. But if you consistently do that and complain that you can't find a decent man or woman then don't be surprised if your friends and family tell you to shut up.

Get out from behind that computer screen. Get out from in front of that television monitor. Put that book down (unless you are really learning something). Get out and about and do yourself a favour. You don't have to go to the biggest raves or the hottest clubs in town. Be creative in where you go and what you do and I am sure that you will attract like-minded people and who knows?
