No, Kerry. I don't want a long-distance relationship.
I am not looking for an exclusive, serious relationship right now. I am just getting back in to the world of dating and I do not want to go from an 18 year relationship into another serious one. I want to laugh, have fun, and enjoy being in the company of a man who hasn't decided that I am the reason for all of the wrong in his life.
And I also know, because of my beliefs, that I don't want to sleep with anyone until I do feel that I have found the person I want to be serious with....
Maybe that is where the distance seems like an advantage to me, because we aren't likely to wind up spending all our free time together.
