Me? Nah, I'm busy with life.

So that is what someone said to me when I asked them if they were seeing someone.
Now typically, I wouldn't really think too much of a response like this.
But in the context of the person who we're discussing here it is kind of irritating.

Basically, he is one of those..."I live everyday like its my last. Live life to the fullest. I need to be extreme otherwise I'm not living." kinds of people. And to the point that he doesn't appreciate the quieter yet meaningful moments in life.

I honestly just found this comment from him to be very stand off-ish. As if to say to me "yeah sure you can date people but I want to live to I'm going to pass on that.
Now don't get me wrong, I love being single, and I love doing my own thing.
But I think that when you find someone and you both respect each other - those things aren't compromised.
Maybe he just has the impression that is what happens.
I suppose what annoyed me most was that I couldn't really talk to him about this because he's probably be offended.
I sometimes get the impression that he views my comparatively quieter lifestyle as boring or wasted. That makes me a bit angry.
I know I shouldn't care what other people think in regards to how I live my life, but I think that it still ain't a nice feeling.
I wish I couldn make him understand that its just good to go with the flow, and sure step out of your comfort zone. But you don't have to do it all the time. Just to prove a point.

Oh well yeah sorry if what I'm saying is disagreeable but I think that I just wanted to vent.
