my mom actually told me it was OK for me to date 20-year-olds because "getting into the game this late, you don't really have a choice". While I'd like to believe this, since my not dating when younger was my own fault anyway I don't really see how I can justify giving myself special treatment an account of it. I dunno, despite an apparent breakout year in 2007 I think that'll probably end up being an anomaly and I'll never have any dates or relationships again. 2008 has already been a total bust so far, and it's already 25% complete. Soon it'll be 50%, then 100% and I'll be 26 and a half, then I'll be 30 soon after that, then 40, 50 etc. and I doubt I'll have made any progress whatever, I'll remain 14 emotionally and even intellectually I won't have learned anything new due to laziness.
