KGirl - one year later con't

[Maybell]

I think for you and me both the forward motion will be pretty much the same: live our own lives as though we find ourselves interesting. Explore "bucket list" possibilities: widening our social & professional circles, expanding the range of our experiences. Say yes to things we used to say no to. Put the desire for a romantic relationship lower on our priority list so we can spend some time getting to know our "new" selves.

There is one gift I'd really like to give myself, and that is the patience to really savor getting to know future romantic interests, draw the experience out, enjoy flirting and being pursued without knowing where the relationship might go. I want that experience for myself the same way I wanted the experience of natural childbirth and graduate school. If I ever marry again it will be for very different reasons than when I married H. I loved (love) him, but we didn't do a good job of choosing the way we'd build a life together. If I marry again, it will be because my new partner and I want to build an intentional life together.

Are you interested in giving yourself a gift like that?
