Peter Pan should NOT be your role model

I hate to make generalizations, especially about the male population, but I can't help it. All the ones I meet are alike! Aside from the fact that most of them are inconsiderate, sexually-driven, and attention-span deficient, I've noticed a lot of them don't have their shit together.

I would expect a man in his late twenties to have a steady job with a steady income, goals in life, his own place, etc. Now I know there are exceptions, and I do take those into consideration when harshly judging like I am now (evil bitch, I am!). But generally, at that age, a man should be on his own, paving a path to what he ultimately wants to do with his life, and hopefully looking for something other than one night stands or flavors of the month. This is not so in the men I meet.

I meet guys who in their late twenties and early thirties, are still living at home (again, there are exceptions). I meet guys who chose not to graduate college, but aren't doing anything equally or more productive (read: have a steady job). I meet guys who can barely support themselves, let alone take a girl on traditional dates (where she doesn't always pay her half). I meet guys who still hang out at the bar every weekend, flirting with as many women as possible. I meet guys who regularly (read: constantly) choose a drunken night out with the boys over spending time with a woman. I meet guys who just want to fuck without strings attached.

So where are all the guys that have their shit together? Is it just me? Is it that men are maturing at an excruciatingly slower rate and they don't want a "grown-up" life until much later? I haven't figured it out, and may never really know for sure. I'm just hoping, for sanity's sake, that the light at the end of the tunnel (read: a decent, dateworthy guy) will find me soon. Until then, I'm stuck with fuck buddies, the "hold-me-overs," the "fall-backs," and my dear friends to keep me occupied!
