Whatever you call it

Call it arrogance, false pride, egoism- whatever you will, but I feel that I am built differently than the rest. Now, many may argue, but S, "you're unique, just like everyone else" and laugh at that old, overused joke. But really, knowing myself, I can claim that I truly am different.

I'm not saying that it's good or bad to be this way- all I mean to say is that god broke the mold once he made me- you can never find anyone like me. I am a rather odd combination of things- something that I really had to struggle with as a child and a teenager. I'm sardonic yet idealistic. Romantic yet cynical. Adventurous yet wholesome.

That's why it annoys me whenever someone tries to use the same line that they've used on hundreds of other women on me, or whenever someone tries to generalize me, or take me to a "run of the mill" date because they've only seen the sweet side of me. I hunger for adventure- when people hear of my easy upbringing, they forget that I did spend my first dozen years on this planet in a third world country. That probably has a lot to do with my contradictions. For fuck's sake- please don't be boring with me- do something a little intense, a little wacky, a little out of the way- and you will pique my interest. But that's the problem, right- even the biggest Tomcats will act like good little schoolboys with you if you are a good girl because that's what it takes (in their minds) to get some from a good girl.

Take me to long walks on gritty urban sidewalks, let me swig out of your Whiskey bottle, don't let the fact that I have three tattoos- or the fact that I got them all on the same day- surprise you. Jump on a bus with me as we look to get to our planned destination. Let's change our plans the last minute and just stop by at a dive bar where we can talk about poets and literature and the awesomeness of Mad Men. Let us eat out of trucks carts. Then, let's hop out when the bar is closing, I'll pull you into a dark alley, you can lift up my leather skirt and fuck me. Let's go check into a motel nearby if we're too tipsy to walk.

Plan something with me that you have not done with another girl. That would indeed be a date to remember.
