Pollyanna...I didn't answer your question, I do apologise!
No, you are not meant to be optimistic just because I have been on a couple of dates, what I was meaning is that the optimism itself brought me to where I am.
Misery finds friends easily and breeds. Optimism kills misery.
I was made redundant a month ago, saw it as an opportunity and looked upon it as a chance to do whatever I wanted for the first time in 26 years and felt good about it. I ws optimistic for the future. Within 24 hours I had another job, where I am now and it is the best place I have worked for absolutely years.
THAT'S what I meant.
Find the opportunity for good in everything and only good will find you. Perspective.
Oh, and again people, thanks for looking out for me, I am not jumping in with both feet despite my earlier posts. There has to be a long way to go for me to lose myself into another relationship. The last one I was in I was co-dependent and I am NEVER going there again.
