Читать книгу It’s Just a Date: A Guide to a Sane Dating Life - Greg Behrendt - Страница 34

Dear Greg,

I heard you on the radio the other day talking about getting a life but you didn’t say exactly how one should do that. Here’s my problem. I moved recently for work and within a week I met the girl who would become my girlfriend. We spent all kinds of time together but now I can tell she’s getting kind of sick of me. I don’t want to be that guy who has no life. The problem is I don’t know anyone here except my boring office mates and most of my social life revolves around her. Help.

Dear This Boys Life,

Softball, guitar lessons, charity work—just do something. Look, moving is a big adjustment let alone adding a new relationship to the mix. So do some deep thinking. Get a piece of paper and write down all the things you have always wanted to try or do. Anything from starting a band to losing weight is an excuse to get you out the door and into the world. Plus don’t be afraid to spend some time alone. Trust me, as a married father of two, I read your letter with a spot of envy. I love my life like no other, but there are days when I’d eat a bee’s nest for a couple hours alone. Okay, that’s not entirely true, but you get my meaning.
