...what’s the big whoopty doo about relationships?
Ok, here’s where I’m coming from. I guess I could argue I’ve been a bit unlucky with every relationship I’ve ever been to. The longest one lasted almost 4 years. And while I do miss some aspects of having a second half in my life, (then again, it could also be that all my friends are now married (some with kids) or in serious relationships) I can’t help but be glad that I’m single. The three long relationships that I’ve been to (the 4 year mentioned above, and two one-year-long or close to it) have all ended in a disasters. (BTW. I’m ignoring all the little 1-3 month long relationships, cus.. honestly, that’s not even a relationship in my book).
I’m 25 right now, so theoretically I’m still a baby by some accounts, and “my time will come.” The last relationship ended a little over a year ago now, and… to be honest, this past year has been one of the most enjoyable I’ve had in a long time. The last relationship was also a nail into a coffin for me in terms of relationship, too. Somehow, I’m always picking the ones who I shouldn’t trust from the beginning… suddenly betrayal doesn’t scare me anymore, and I can’t get myself to trust another girl anymore (who knows, maybe I’ll get over it one day?)
In either case, I just graduated from the univ, so my mentality is set on getting a good office job, despite the wonderful economy. So I’m pretty occupied with random stuff, plus I’m helping out family and friends with their issues (my friend’s 2-month-old just had a surgery yesterday… they’re pretty shaken up about it.)
Anyway, so where do you stand? What’s in it for you?
