Dear Anna and Dave

So, I’m dating this guy and he’s awesome. We adventure outside any chance we can get, have great, intellectual conversation and click really well. But here’s the thing–he’s a total hermit and I’m a social butterfly.

Dear SFMIP

We’re going to be brutally blunt here SFMIP: you should spend less time tweeting on your iPhone and more time with your man. Ever consider that he’s a social hermit because he thinks your constant need to be connected is just a little on the verge of social craziness? You say that you “adventure outside” but how much of that time is tracking where you are with the latest GPS application?

Sounds to us like you don’t actually have a problem in your relationship; you’re just having issues with your own insecurities. This guy likes the outdoors, you have uber intellectual conversations and you’re concerned that he won’t take part in the regular forms of a superficial exuberant social life? Girl, you need to go spend some solitary time in the woods and start thinking about what’s really important to you. Hopefully you realize how great this guy is instead of hastily dropping him for a sorry excuse of a man that attracts you simply because he throws a lot of meaningless get-togethers that he promotes on Facebook.  Switch out your social life for some more nature life and we’ll sure you’ll feel better immediately.

Seriously, sometimes women have a tendency to over-analyze, and this is a prime example.  [Note that one of us is a female and knows this tendency all to well] If you’re happy and he’s happy and you’re both happy together, then that’s fantastic.  Sure, your hermit isn’t exactly what you imagine your awesome guy would be like.  But he is still awesome -  Deal with it. Plus you don’t need big social parties to have hot, outdoorsy loving – usually that stuff is done in private.  If not, tweet us when and where.

Love and social networks,

Anna + Dave
