When Things that Work for Others Don't Seem to Work for Me.

With the rise of almost everyone I know getting serious relationships, getting engaged, getting married, having babies, it kinda makes me wonder how done I really am with that part of my life. I'm not in any hurry to jump in the relationship bandwagon and find a boyfriend that could be a potential husband. From my experience, I think I'd have to go the glacier route for that to ever be the case with a guy. My life has a bad, bad pattern of getting worse if I date or get a boyfriend. But my experience also tells me that it may be rare or non-existent for me to ever get to that point.

I'm fine with it. I like doing what I want without feeling like I have to turn to somebody. I like not having to worry about whether I can follow a dream without a guy threatening to break up with me. And not having to worry if the guy will take drastic actions to keep me from going anywhere. It's actually quite nice.

So while everyone's getting relationships, getting married and popping out kids, I'll be over here going, "Hey! Look at this new thing I posted!" while simultaneously being happy for them. It works for them, but I've yet to see it really work for me.

Awkward picture of the day!
