Chel asked me a burning question I’m sure you’ve all been losing sleep over… <\/p>\n
Am I going to have a +1 at her wedding???<\/p>\n
I’ve spent the past couple of days mulling over this question. I thought about it while we waited in line for Alice in Wonderland<\/em>, and Chel asked everyone except me who was the funnier one in their current relationships (you don’t need to ask me who was funnier in all my past<\/em> relationships\u2014I’m clearly a riot). The four of us have been attached at the nip for as long as I can remember, and I have always been the single one out. Sure, a couple of them have been single while I was single (and for a very brief moment<\/a> we all were single), but I’m the only one who is ever single alone. I thought about it again when I went to dinner with my sister earlier tonight, and we ran into two of her ex-boyfriend’s ex-girlfriends. I realized that all of them were engaged\u2014her ex-boyfriend and all of his ex’s, my sister included.<\/p>\n I’m almost certain that my status will remain unchanged three months from now. That’s not me being pessimistic; I’m actually quite the opposite. I think I see the good in people too often, thinking that they’re worth more than they really are… even though they continue to disprove me repeatedly. It doesn’t help that today marks a full week since Il Postino did me dirty again (and not in a good way), and as predicted<\/a>, no apologies have been offered.<\/p>\n And so I told Chel that I won’t be needing a +1. She already has 300 guests. I don’t want her spending another $50 on dinner for this tentative +1 of mine. Alas, I will be the only one out of five bridesmaids and two maids of honor without a date. And if you’re reading this thinking, “Damn, I really wanted to be your +1…” then maybe you should stop stalking me on the internet and make movements instead\u2014yes, I’m talking to you, Anthony!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chel asked me a burning question I’m sure you’ve all been losing sleep over… Am I going to have a +1 at her wedding???
