Being Single (09.15.16)

Being single sucks. Being single in a big city filled with sex, drugs, and drinking, sucks even more.

How do I survive? ... Strike a deal with a devil...

1.  Drink slowly and confidently. Take a sip, put down your glass, and look around. Please, don't hold the glass to your lips, don't let your eyes wander too far, and always remember to watch your drink so that no one can slip something in by accident.

2.  Speak with intent and partial honesty. When you slur, stammer, or flub, the other thinks they have more power, and then... the rest of the night will go down from there. Keep the power in your courts. In the end... if you can't get the power back, just walk away.

3.  Keep your composure. Smile and flirt, be a good person and a good woman in public. Remember to stand up straight, even if you don't feel like it. Remember to have your friends's backs, but also think about those you are watching and keep them on point. They should have your back, too!

There are sly devilish men in grey suits everywhere... Some are angels... some are not.

Let's hope you meet a gentleman... and old-fashioned, if possible.
