Date With Destiny

As I men­tioned on Twit­ter, I didn’t really enjoy He’s Just Not That Into You. For one thing because it makes girls seem crazy and guys seem like ass­holes. But it also seems to send a mes­sage that you should just resign your­self to fate.

I don’t know if I can accept that no mat­ter who I choose to pur­sue, fate will just drop some­one into my lap, and it may or may not be the per­son I’m pur­su­ing. Like the cyn­i­cal the­ist (See the Terry Pratch­ett sec­tion near the botom), I will take my chances with pur­suit if it will hap­pen with or with­out my involve­ment. Like Style said, it would not have hap­pened if he hadn’t put him­self out there for her to choose him.

Do you believe in “The One”? Is there an alter­nate uni­verse of poten­tial mates bat­tling it out on a zig­gu­rat for your affec­tions? If there was, maybe it would look some­thing like this.

  1. I only heard reviews from girls and they loved it. I still want to see it though! Have you been study­ing for the LSAT’s? I am think­ing I might take them too for the hell of it. LSAT, GMAT, GRE and see what the hell hap­pens. hahaha

  2. Not study­ing for LSATs at the moment. I will prob­a­bly study and re-​take towards the end of the year.

  3. We walked out of that movie in the beginning.

  4. Who’s “we” and why did you walk out?
