it used to be that i would bemoan all the reasons why being single sucks. you don’t have that other person to spend time with, to share your innermost thoughts with, to tell them the inane details of your day to day life.
it used to be that i would be very sad when i was single and i would desperately try to get out of this state of loneliness. it’s strange, because over the years, my attitudes have changed about being single. sure, it’s true, it would be great if i had a little someone that i could call my own, but it doesn’t kill me that i don’t.
part of me wasn’t ready to date, either. part of me wasn’t ready to move on. but i think that i’m at a point now where i’m ready to date. the only problem is that i keep meeting cute, interesting women who end up being married, engaged, or already spoken for. go figure, eh?
oh well, i guess i’ll keep my eyes open and see what comes my way.
it does seem, though, that it is during my singlehood that i tend to make my major purchases. so far, it’s only been one LCD and a camera…but i do feel a lens coming in the works. what is it with me and electronics?
I think the grass is greener on the other side… most of the time. Sometimes, tying yourself down to that one person before you have a chance to really figure out who you are can be a bad thing. Because face it, 90% of the time, being part of couple just settles you down. You get comfortable. And there is nothing wrong with that. I have found few couples who are risk takers, but I do know a few that are still exploring the world together. I find it refreshing. Basically, enjoy where you are and the journey you’re on. Life is an adventure!
