Most of us want to meet that special someone but what are you doing to meet someone new? Do you have any special hang out places, do you take any classes, volunteer, or spend time going to different events?
At this point I just work and spend time with friends. I have degrees so I'm done with school for now... I think my brain is fried from reading so many textbooks lol. I have a new apartment so I'm still in the unpacking and decorating phase. I am not really going out much other than that. What about you?
I try when the opportunity convinces me it is worth trying.
I try not think that things I do can find me love. I volunteer for Habitat for Humanity and honestly, I would never plan to find love through that because simply, we are building houses for poor people and three guys walking in the ghetto appreciated what we were doing so much that, that means more than finding someone through that.
My friends are shocked that I have a rule with my bowling league...no dating anyone on the league. The last thing I want is some vindictive ex, getting in the way of my game. I am competitive so that would be aggravating if that would come up. I don't put too much past people when breakups happen.
Work? Screw that. I have done that. One good ending and one bad. One bad is bad enough and that one was back when I was 21 but I didn't forget the lessons. I am there to work and make a living, not finding someone to be with romantically.
When I had a golf membership...same rule of thumb as above. That golf course was my safe haven and I wasn't open minded to lose that one little spot that I could call, "heaven" over some woman. It was where I went to be away from a woman and the problems I had with her. It was where I went to run away from my problems with my father, with my frustrations love. There isn't that good of sex out there to lose something like that, or some amazing personality to give that up.
I am selfish and when I find something, I'll burn before I let it go.
Point being, I just don't think that finding someone through things I do, is something that I intentionally aim for. If I find someone through avenues like above and others that I end up spending the rest of my life with, I will no doubt go through my predictably epiphany/cliched moments of, "I was wrong and the point is?"
