Out of the Woodwork

Being single again is a funny thing. It really hasn't been that long since I've been unattached, and yet I can't begin to count how many guys, who are aware of what I've gone through, that have been pursuing me. And a surprising number of them are exes. I mean I just ended an engagement, had a miscarriage, and completely turned my life upside down by moving 3,000 miles. How about giving me some breathing room? I would think that this is definitely one situation where it's preferable for the girl to make the first move, no? And unless these guys are just looking for sex, which is entirely possible, who would want to be the first guy to hang out with me after that kind of craziness? Or maybe they are not thinking that far ahead. I'm not really sure what to make of all of these guys coming out of the woodwork. But I must say I am flattered. Although that may end after this blog post:) I don't know. Just thinking aloud and rambling. I think I'm delirious from lack of sleep. So on that note I say Good Night!!

The Dating Game

Okay. It's been some time, but I guess I'm officially back in the dating game. This doesn't mean that I am actively dating per se, but I've decided that I'm opening myself up to date again. I used to love dating. There was definitely a time where I was on anywhere from 2 to 10 dates in a single week (I think a personal record was 6 dates in one weekend). I was young and having fun and really enjoying myself with lots of different guys and interesting (or not!) conversations and going to new restaurants and bars. What's not to like? You get dressed up, someone tells you how pretty you are, after a few drinks you're both laughing and hopefully enjoying each other's company all the while trying whatever "cool" restaurant happens to be good that week.

But that was then. I felt young and carefree and happy and unencumbered with anything too serious in life. I definitely don't feel any of those things now. I am absolutely not looking for a relationship at all, for a long time. But I don't think it would hurt to take my mind off of things by hanging out, meeting new people and having someone to have fun with. I guess we'll see how this goes. Wish me luck!!!!
