What else can I possibly do

They say when you want something bad enough, you do what it takes to get achieve it. That statement is true in so many areas of my life, except for one. This whole dating or should I say, trying to date thing just seems to be a task I can't quite manage to figure out.

I signed up for Match.com about a month ago. I went on one date with a guy that turned out to be a disaster. He wasn't bad looking. Our emails back and forth were friendly and he SEEMED genuine and sincere but all that went down the toilet when we met. I'm not sure if he was nervous or just a down right ass hole but basically he called me Pretentious and Spoiled brat because I drive a Honda. WTF??! I pretty much finished my meal and got up and left. A few days later, I got a message from him asking when we were going out again and that apparently I owed him a meal since he paid for the last one. Ummm, no thanks Buddy. You were and are an ASS. Granted this was just one experience,I just can't help but have a bad taste in my mouth and skeptical about possible future experiences.

I don't know what else I can possibly do. I am putting myself "OUT THERE" but nothing seems to be happening. I'm online, I do pet sitting and I'm usually out and about with the animals going for walks etc... I work for the City in which I am in contact with the public. I did have a Gym crush. His name was Ryan (what is it with me and the that name??!) Super nice guy, good looking, and actually TALKS to you... find out that he's engaged. DAMN... but of course he's engaged. All of the good guys seem to be taken. I've tried tapping my resources with my friends but usually they don't know any single guys and or they don't think it would be a good fit. When are the stars going to align and seas part and my AT LAST will finally happen?

For a person who is goal oriented and has a plan of action to achieve those goals, it is extremely frustrating knowing that I can't seem to achieve this goal. Damn it, I'm so impatient! And why does it seem that when you are single, the Holiday's always seem to remind you just how single you are? Wah. I love my family and have great friends but I just wish I had that special someone to call my own.
