IKEA!

So, I think I'm going to start going to IKEA and just browsing the floor... So, yes, I'm trying to find a better way to sort my clothing in my room.

My clothing situation has always been a hot mess.  I mean, I had some old busted dresser after college...  then I moved to a less busted dresser from Walmart... THEN.... When I got my apartment I went with these plastic bins from Home Depot/Lowe's.  Don't get me wrong, I like the plastic bins.  Personally, I'd stick with the bins.  They're easy, cheap, and you just throw things in the bins.

It's not exactly... A great way to impress a girl.

The minute she sees that, she turns back around and is like... "So, you keep your clothes in those?"

Okay, so, time to upgrade.

What impresses the ladies?  Who knows... If I knew THAT, I wouldn't be single at 34.

I mean, I own an entire house.  And there's no mortgage on it.

I feel like that alone should be impressive?

Of course then the ladies want to know how you acquired the house.

Inheritance.

Not impressive.

It's interesting... Women don't find gifted money attractive.  They find self made money attractive.

So, like, a guy who has a mortgage, but bought the house himself with money he worked for... That's "hot".

But a guy who inherited a house with no mortgage on it... That's "lazy" and unattractive.

I mean, I understand that.

Anyways though, also "lazy" is when the guy just throws his clothes into plastic stacking bins meant to be used in a garage or basement.

To me... It's a "dude" thing.  I feel like it's something that one of the guys from that show Myth Busters would do.

Anyways, so I figure if I browse IKEA long enough, something will jump out.  And who knows, maybe the love of my life will also be browsing IKEA as well looking for new ideas for her living space.  And then maybe we'll just bump into each other and start chatting about how interesting something looks that happens to be on sale while we're both waiting at the checkout.

I haven't been there in a little while but from what I recall they used to have little things on sale by the registers before you check out.

Of course then I have to figure out a way to impress her.  It's hard work!  Like, even the whole thing where you start chatting is nearly impossible... Then continuing the chat... Then dating... Then actually being in a relationship... Then marriage...

I mean, the whole time as a guy, I have to figure out a way to keep this woman interested because after all, why should she be with me when she could be with ANY other guy on the planet.  Why go with this guy when there are probably much better options out there.  Funnier, smarter, better jobs, better looking....

It's a fight to keep interest.  I guess that's why people get divorced or break up though... One or both people didn't fight enough to keep the other person interested or impress the person enough so that they would stay.  They decided not to stay because they got bored and found something better somewhere else.

But I guess the idea is that hopefully I'll finally meet a girl who was in a mismatched interest relationship previously and then that ended, and then we meet and it's mutually interested.

Who knows, maybe I'm just never meant to meet her... I guess in which case I'll just take my inheritance and do a lot of shopping at IKEA.
