Harper is not a Hallmark town

Well, I've been living in Harper for over two years now...and still no Mr. Right. There have been some killer sunrises, great side by side rides, fishing trips, and all the other stuff.

I don't understand what's going on. I've been to the local hangout, Coleman's, and met all kinds of people. Locals and hunters, fence builders, passersby...and not one has professed love for me yet. I've had a few drinks bought for me,but that's it. I've driven into Vale numerous times, had food and drinks at the local dives and diners, and still, no marriage proposals. I've bought Carhart jackets, goats, chickens, and adopted two cats. Nothing. I've been to the movies in the big town of Ontario by myself, hoping to bump into the perfect match. Nothing. I've even branched out and been to a bar in Nampa a few times, with the same zero results. Heck, I've brought goats to the local vet for toenail clipping, and even stopped at the hardware store for supplies. Zero. Why is it so darn easy to find that perfectly kind, considerate, fun loving, compassionate, honest, trustworthy man in the Hallmark movies? I'm at a loss. I mean I've met some people here. Sure. I've also met all kinds of drunks and gossip queens and kings. Those don't exist that much in Hallmark towns, maybe Harper has the market on that, but I'm pretty sure there's just more concentrated here because it's so small. There are some really nice people here that are straight forward and mind their own business. But, none so far have come a'courtin. So, I've decided to branch out, against everything in my soul, and try some online dating. I mean, heck, can't hurt. I may find my Mr. Right tucked away in a corner booth, writing his dating profile. Never know. I mean, I'm pretty sure I won't, but it'll be an entertaining ride for you married folk and maybe help you decide to just stay together and work on your differences. So here we go....
