New Years, resolutions, and reflections.


So I realize that it has been awhile since I last posted, and here is why.

I wrote this awesome post in the heat of a moment about dating, how my online trials tend to fail miserably and how last year i had a short romance that changed well everything. And then it disappeared. I had a lot of things open on my computer and I must have clicked out without saving because the next day I came to edit it and it had vanished. I decided then that it probably wasn’t a post that should be posted.

A good friend of mine over the break asked me some very pointed questions about my love life and whether or not I am happy with this aloneness I have been in.  And well this has made me reflect on my choices.

Last New Year’s I made three very specific resolutions in regards to my love life, mental wellness, and goals for the year. All combined it led me to focus on me, and what I needed/wanted out of life, and not get caught up in others (in a romantic sense). While this may sound very self-centered, I had very valid reasons for not wanting to commit in the year 2012.
 

1st off I was absolutely positive that I was going to be moving out of the current state in which I lived in -> Georgia. Thus a romantic relationship would be facing a pretty large hurdle in only a few short months.

2ndly I was convinced (and correctly so) that my little sister was going to get engaged/married soon, and would need me to be focused on her. Something that I really enjoyed.

3rd, I became comfortable with being alone in all aspects, sleeping, eating, and just generally being alone. There is nothing better than ending your work day in your own apartment, with your own mess, and your own thoughts.

That being said my new New Year’s resolutions are as follows:

1: Loose some of this unhealthy-ness weight.

            Whether it be in body, emotionally, or even in friends.

2: Send more snail mail.

            Because who doesn’t love receiving real mail in this time of emails, texts, g-chat, twitter, and Facebook messages? Also this is a ploy for me to get mail besides bills, and credit card offers.

3: Become open.

            This means that I need to get off my ass and open myself up to more. As in dating. Making new friends.  And getting out of my apartment. I hope to be less content in being alone.
With that said I will gladly date any of the following people AND If you send me your address I will send you mail.
