my 20s were good for something

i am shutting down and heading out to run some errands before my big date tonight. a second date.... usually the best, because it is often the last date before you:

• realize he is OCD
• realize he doesn't shower
• you spot him kissing someone else while out on a date with you
• accept that there is no spark
• never hear from him again
• discover how many ppl in common you've dated
• contemplate giving up altogether, moving back home with your family and getting cats. 

because all of these things have happened to me in the past two years. to be fair, at least i know now when to throw in the towel - so my 20s were spent not in vain.
