Am I a sad cow?

I bought two tickets for a gig at the end of August.

I bought two to push myself into putting myself out there and finding a partner.

Good on you

thisfilmisboring123 · 14/04/2024 19:52

Of course not!
Why would that make you sad.

Good on you and good luck

PinotDragon · 14/04/2024 19:52

You could always take a friend if no date appears.

IncognitoUsername · 14/04/2024 19:53

Good for you. Do you have a friend/sibling you can take if Mr Right (or Miss) hasn’t come along by then?

InTheShallowTheShalalalalalalalow · 14/04/2024 19:54

Not sad at all.

Will be a great date.

I sometimes buy stuff to encourage me I to the life I want rather than the life I have, nothing more motivating than spending money 🤣

Hope you have a great time with whoever the lucky person is.

Yes I have a couple of people I can ask 😊

Quite the opposite! That's a really positive mindset. Good On you!

CurlyhairedAssassin · 14/04/2024 20:12

It's quite an exciting thought, that! It's being open to any possibility, which is only a good thing. And the opposite of boring!

Holliegee · 14/04/2024 20:14

I think it’s fab and a great idea !! Go you!!

StormingNorman · 14/04/2024 20:14

That’s amazing! Start ‘interviewing’ immediately x

Piemam · 14/04/2024 20:14

Ooh, I like your thinking! That's a positive and bold move, please do come back and let us know how you got on! I've a feeling the posters above me are just as invested. I think we collectively need more of this style of thinking.

DisforDarkChocolate · 14/04/2024 20:14

Good for you. Life is too short to wait for good stuff to happen. Enjoy the adventure.

StarlightLime · 14/04/2024 20:17

Well done 👍

JimJonesLivesInMyHead · 14/04/2024 20:40

That's not sad, that's taking control of your life. Far better than what I would probably do...go alone and feel thoroughly sorry for myself as I have many times to different things.

Best of luck to you OP, I admire you

Wibblebits · 14/04/2024 20:42

Put that on your dating profile if you use apps will attract the same like minded guy. Good luck and have fun:)

TeaWithHobnobs · 14/04/2024 21:25

Far from it, I like your positive thinking!

CranfordScones · 14/04/2024 21:37

I did exactly that a few times in the past. Good for you!

EveryOtherNameTaken · 14/04/2024 21:44

Why not. It seems like positive thinking to me. You manifest away and I hope you both have a great night 🍻

philosoppee · 15/04/2024 20:06

That sounds a great thing to do! I hope you have a brilliant time with whoever you go with!
