As cliched as it sounds, in looking for a suitable dating partner, I want to find someone who "gets" me. And the more I embrace myself as a person, the more I realize that a lot of people out there are just not going to be able to fill that void. There are people out there who could date just about anyone, but I find that I need a special someone who gets me on all those weird and quirky levels that makes up me.
Like tonight. Just hanging out, watching clips from the Alan Arkin/Christopher Lee film The Return of Captain Invincible on YouTube. I just requested it at the library, and I'm super-excited :)
Possible conversation?
Boyfriend: Hey :)
Emmy: Hey :)
BF: What you doing?
Em: Sitting around in my pajamas, watching clips from The Return of Captain Invincible. You?
Em: Sitting around in my pajamas, watching clips from The Return of Captain Invincible. You?
BF: That sounds awesome...can I join you?
That's all I want. Someone who appreciates my love of obscure movies.
(By the way, I'm including one of the clips here for your viewing pleasure)
I'll let you know what I think of the movie as a whole once I finally get to watch it ;)
It's amazing ... with all of the people in this whole, wide World, you'd think this whole, 'finding-a-partner' issue would be a piece of cake.
