A man's got to know his limitations.~Clint Eastwood

Sometimes, the smartest thing you can do is walk away. Wasting your time on something that isn't going to happen isn't a sign of perseverance, it's a sign of stupidity. You know this, and you know I know this. So if we all know this, why are we still talking about it?

Because not everyone can see the truth when it's staring them in the face. Some people need it to hit them like a sledgehammer. Reality is a cold hard slap in the face my friend, and it's about to bitch-slap your ass to the ground. The best thing you can do is pick yourself up and walk away. Because a life spent chasing an unfulfilled dream isn't a romantic concept, it's a waste. Trust me on this one, I know from where I speak.

But I know you won't listen, because you never listen. So here's to you. May you have better luck than the rest of us.

	If you want different results then you have to try something different and quit doing the same ole thing.

	hey now, K, just because I can't find a date on a dating site does NOT mean I am going to walk away. Can't I just hang out here for awhile? PLEASE Great blog, btw
