Day One

Today is Day One of my No Guy Plan. Let's just say it hasn't been working very well. It's like Lent, you give up chocolate or something and by the second hour you've already had three Hershey bars... even though if it was not Lent it would take you a week (not an hour) to eat the same amount. Basically, you give something up and you want it more.

Which, according to the self-help-relationship book I won't admit I'm reading, is the way to win men over. Give them up, and not only are you more attracted to them, they are more attracted to you.

I'm not sure if this is my goal for giving up men completely for a week, (then mostly for the rest of the month...) but I will admit it won't hurt a damn thing.

I struggled the whole day. I've never dieted, and I would say dieting is prolly twenty times worse. Not checking out guys at work, not renting any overtly romance-oriented movies, or books from the library... nothing. Not breathing, thinking, or living in the world of men. For me, it seems impossible. Day one isn't even over.

I must say, I think it will work like that book says it will. (*Again, not like that is my goal.... just an added benifit.) I was at the grocery store shopping for tommorow night's dinner (I'm cooking!) and was completely thinking about food, and chocolate I must say, when this guy who worked at the store called out, from like ten feet away, and asked if I needed help. He catered to my every need for about fifteen minutes. Even my mother was laughing as we left and said she thought he really liked me. Interesant.

Anyway! No talking about guys. No calling, no hanging out with, no thinking... about guys. Lol.

Thought I'd share. More later.
