Sooo... This is kinda embarrassing drama, but I thought people on here might like to hear it since we're single and all (being as this is the Singles Forum). It's good for a laugh, but I don't know if you could extrapolate anything Christian or non-Christian from it either way...
A while back, I was taking a Chemistry class in college. I was super board while taking a test (which I was acing anyway), and started bemoaning how I didn't have a girlfriend. I was so absorbed in my mental woes that I didn't even notice I had started talking out loud.
Apparently I started saying the phrase, "Why don't I have a girlfriend? Where is she? It's so horrible that I don't have one!" over and over again at increasingly louder volumes as I was staring blankly at my completed Chemistry test.
According to my classmates (which told me later), I started holding my head and yelling it like a madman at the top of my lungs. I can distinctly remember that from between my fingers, in a land far away, the voice of the teacher brought me back into reality from another world. "Elijah... Elijah... Elijahhhh!... ELIJAH!!!" I look up at him perplexed, having no idea I was doing it. The teacher looks up at me with a half-amused-half-freaked out expression and says, "I don't know why you don't have a girlfriend yet, Elijah! If I could get you one, I would, but I can't. Now please pass in your test and stop screaming about it.
As I walked up to his desk, one guy stood up and patted me on the back and said, "I feel you dude. I'm in the same boat. Keep strong, bro." I was so grateful for his understanding. As I went back to my desk, some girl in the back said, "Yeah... same here! Why don't I have a boyfriend?"
Then the whole class gets into a discussion about why everyone in it is single. The test is abruptly forgotten and the teacher has to yell several times (after mentioning he wouldn't mind going on a date himself) that we should continue and finish. After the test, he makes a special announcement to the whole class that, since everyone in it is single and desperate, they should all start dating each other, and that Elijah (me) was especially needy.
Anyway, I aced the test, but the whole class never looked at me like I was sane again. The girl in the back had a thing for me after that though. But I wasn't interested in her because she wasn't a Believer...
Hope you found my story of insanity amusing...
