shallow girls

I'm still sitting at Maum, and I'm sitting in a booth next to these really shallow Korean girls. The conversation reminds me of some of the girls I used to hang out with.

So, apparently one of the girls has several potential guys in mind, and she is asking her friends for advice on who to date.

girl 1: ... but Guy A drives a Honda Civic hybrid.
girl 2: oh. uhhh....
1: but he also goes out a lot too.
2: wow, he doesn't seem poor
1: no... he's in the military so he has some money.

2: does Guy B exercise in the morning?
1: doesn't look like it, but I mean, he looks alright.

These aren't the best excerpts from their conversation, but all I do know is money, material possession, and looks were their only criteria. And people wonder why I lack girl friends. Quite frankly, I don't want to deal with girls like these, let alone have friends that are so narrow minded. I've dealt with them.

The FEW girl friends I have are still with me for a reason. For one, I don't have to justify my being in a relationship with a particular guy to them. They don't look at the car he drives, his wealth, his looks - nor do they judge him by any of these.

They simply ask, "Are you happy?"
"Yes, I am happy."
"Then I'm happy for you."


Can't wait until some of them come home for the summer.
