Hmmm...did you travel in a tricked out van and solve any mysteries while on your road trip? I think I could watch that reality show...

Lots of guy friends-I know what is out there) and all of the qualities they want in their next R. I just cannot. go. there. And I realize it's because our friends and family want us to be happy, however, my friends and family keep saying "this is a great time for you" and "don't you want to meet someone new?" No, actually I don't even know if I care. I hope I don't sound jaded and like a downer. I just cannot imagine being in any kind of R. Zero. Nothing. And I have a very vivid imagination. Maybe I will become a crazy cat lady. Scratch that. I am crazy-just one cat.

GB- I'm pretty sure I have said something similar over on my thread. As much as these boards are a source of comfort, when it comes to the subject of a future relationship, and people writing about how they look forward to it and how amazing it will be....well I mostly feel like an outlier. First - I feel no desire for a new relationship. Second- when I even entertain the possibility that such a thing could occur, I get skeeved out about the notion of bringing someone new around my kids and the thought of someday merging households, merging finances, merging pets......well, it just all seems too overwhelming. I trust that eventually I may feel differently - but for the moment I am okay marinating in my indifference.

I would never, ever do that. I do get tempted.


Well, should you ever succumb, please do report back so that I can live vicariously through you.
