Negativity as a Shield...

I believe that men can smell a desperate woman a mile away. They must. When I'm sad and lonely, I seem to run into the most flirtatious men.
Either men are intrinsically programmed to try to make women happy
- or-
they know when they can get lucky.
 
I'm not ready to risk harming another man until I get my stuff together.
So, I've decided that I'm going to buy myself a fake wedding ring to put an end to this. I always wanted a plain old ring but my ex's were show-offs that bought fancy rocks.
 
I always thought that the best love affairs were simple and a ring should reflect that. When things get too complicated, things get messy. Love wasn't meant to be complicated.
Anyhow, here's my chance to buy the ring I always wanted.
Maybe I'll have it engraved. What should it say?
It's nice to be ice?
Love is for the birds?
Love sinks?
or maybe it should simply quote the wisdom of Spock...
"After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing,
after all, as wanting."
~Star Trek
Hmmmm....
I'll give it some thought.
Maybe the negative message will protect me from doing something completely stupid and harming other people in the process.
We'll see....
Oh, crap. I just realized that my wedding rings used to be a magnet for men looking for one night stands.
Maybe my grand scheme will backfire.
I don't know.
I'll give it some thought.
