We will call him Jaws. Not particularly attractive however, after chatting a little bit you actually do find what you think is a decent man. He is close to his family, he runs his own business and even picks you up, in a nice car, for a good old fashioned date. You think to yourself, "He isn't so bad, maybe I shouldn't be so shallow, maybe it will be a matter of falling for his personality...".
The date goes off without any problems and you think you may actually like him. Well, Jaws knows how to get to a woman. The come up behind you quitely and before you know it they turn into the complete opposite of what you thought. A sleezy man who is the eternal bachelor. Jaws cannot commit to one person and basically preys on unsuspecting women.
The Eternal Bachelor. The man who will take a woman out, show her a great time then do the same the next night with someone else. Why is it that it is so hard do people to commit to one another these days? Why are we so greedy that we can't just enjoy one person? It seems to me that more and more we feel that committing to someone is the end of everything we know. We feel that being tied to one person we can't have "fun" anymore. Granted you can't go around with whoever you want but if you truly like someone then why not try?
Somehow, through it all, we've began to expect a lightning bolt to strike us and tell us this is it. It can be something wonderful but maybe we have to give it time to grow. Then maybe the Eternal Bachelor might have to hang up his hat.
