to tweak Jules Feiffer...

Sometimes I wish I were a dictator.

A ruler. A strongman. With a ruthless grasp on power. An iron grip on the helm of government. But loved.

The law is my law. The people are my people. Whomever I conquer remains conquered!

Premier Heffie. King Heffie. Emperor Heffie. Czar Heffie.

Boy. THEN I could meet girls!

not a day goes by that i don't have that exact same daydream. edicts i'd make, budgets i'd spend, people i'd enslave, borders i'd re-draw.

hell, i don't even worried about the "loved" part that much, so long as my power was absolute.

um, i think that's why i keep getting "sociopath" on those personality tests. but labels are a small price to pay.

Must be a geek thing.

Yeah, it would be pretty awesome to be the Supreme Ruler and knock a few heads around - but think of the hours. And the extreme lack of vacation time. Not to mention the daily concern that someone might decide to assassinate you. I think you're much safer as No Particular Title Heffie.

And from what I've seen, you don't have trouble meeting girls. You have trouble meeting girls who are on the same page as you that you like. And you aren't alone. That's why committed relationships are a big deal - they're too damn hard to find to just let them go or fizzle out.

It's good to be the king.

No Particular Title Heffie. I want that burned into my door!

And you really nailed something on that last point there.
