Getting Off the Roller Coaster

Jan 01, 2009 17:31

I've never made New Years Resolutions before, but as this year is kind of a starting fresh thing, I guess I can make a couple.

1. Find a healthy and stable relationship.
2. Remain single and enjoy dating until I find said relationship. Don't jump in to anything too soon, and be picky.
3. Keep my apartment clean
4. Socialize with people more
5. Actively try to get back into poetry
6. Go back to church on Sundays

A few weeks ago, my boyfriend an I broke up. Which was really hard. Especially since it was just before Christmas. We were going to spend New Years together, but I decided that wouldn't be really healthy for me, even though he and I are working on being friends. I just needed my own night.

I brought a date, but didn't really hit it off with him that well. And he spent a lot of his time staring at my chest from across the room, which was weird. So in the end I had to kind of let him fend for himself, which was bitchy, but something I needed to do.

This year I am going to focus more on myself and building stronger friendships. I spent most of last year as a bit of a shut in, and I'd like to stop doing that.

I really want to be in a relationship at this point in my life. I want to meet somebody that I can stay with for awhile, who makes me actively want to be a better person, and who I can grow with. And I'm willing to be a lot pickier, but still give more people chances. I don't want to jump into anything too fast. I'm considering not having sex for awhile. And setting up boundaries such as not kissing on the first date, etc. so that I can be more subjective emotionally. I don't want to rush into anything, with anyone.

Also, I have a kitten! She is super adorable. 3months old. if you want to ply with her, you should call me. lol.
