Sure Thing

I really liked reading this play. It was funny and also annoying but still appealing. You kind of just want them to hurry up and get it right and leave together. It was most enjoyable to me because it was a romantic comedy. Not your typical one though. It took forever to get the romantic part right. Then again I guess that is pretty typical. I like how in the play it showed just by one simple line that a person can either be turned on or turned off by another person. It kind of tells us why we dont find Mr. perfect in the beginning.It also lets people look in as an outsider so we can see how we look sometimes when we are trying to make a friend or something more. It gives you the realization that dating is harder than we sometimes think. Meeting people and striking up casual conversation with someone can be difficult and this play reveals why. It shows that people that come from different backgrounds might have a more difficult time conversing. I love how throughout the play there are so many Awkward moments. It brought back memories when I first started dating. The feeling sucks. Instantly both people feel that if there might have been a spark between them or hint of anything at all that could have lead to a second date it dies when the awkwardness roles in.
In this romantic comedy I thought the two people or mainly Betty was too picky. Sometimes its interesting if you meet someone who is not into the same things as you. It spices it up a little. I mean if I know all about Faulkner why do I need someone else who knows all about Faulkner. This play limits variety. If either of them said one thing that wasnt in some way related to the other person they instantly lost interest in them. Its not REALLY like that either because normally people will at least pretend to be nice or interested so they avoid that awkward crap. Overall I thought the play was clever and funny.
