My Love

I cannot believe that it is only 5 months until Jenn and I get married! Boy, the time sure does fly by fast. Sometimes it seems like we just met and are just starting our romance and then it seems like I have known her forever. It is coming up on three years - wow!

We actually met online and as cheesy as people think online dating places like eHarmony and other are, they really worked for us and we know of several other couples that met in the same way.

I really liked the fact that I knew we were compatible in our views on certain topics like religion and politics and I knew that she loved kids and maybe even wanted more, like me. You don't get that when you met someone out at a bar or club. It is almost entirely superficial and based on chemistry when you meet someone face to face like that. Not that it isn't superficial online, too. I will say that I was definitely interested in Jenn by they way she looked in her picture and she has said the same about mine.

Who would have thought that three years later, we would be getting married and talking about expanding our family?! It is so exciting! I am so very happy in my life and have a wonderful partner and love.

Single

Most days, I am so glad to be single - it just seems to be easier and I obviously do it better than being part of a couple, because it seems that I have really sucked at that. But there are days when I really miss having someone in my life that I can have conversations with, cook dinner with, laugh with... whatever.

I have been dating a little bit, but it just never seems to go very well. I haven't gone out in the last few weeks, because it really has become more hassle than it is worth. Part of me hates that. Part of me could care less. I guess I am just in a place of indecision? Or maybe I just haven't met anyone I feel like is worth my time. I don't mean for that to sound snobbish or uppity. I am sure that there are a lot of great women out there ... somewhere ... where I am not ...

I have met several awesome straight girls recently - there has to be some lesbians out there too! LOL

I don't pretend to think I am "all that". I just haven't met anyone in a long time that I have felt I "clicked" with. I don't think I am alone in this boat. I think there are a lot of us in it. Why is that? Is it just that there is a large feeling of discontent out there? I hear it from my gay and straight friends, it's not just us sisters... so what's the problem? Why can't we connect?
