Is it possible to be so stuck that you can have fictional flirtation? Recently, I have made the big journey home (from Boston to Essexville) and while it’s only for the summer, I find myself falling back on old habit. You see, in our eternal quest for love and romance, it’s easy to make something out of nothing… or to make something a larger deal then what it actually is. It’s like returning to your elementary school after a decade hiatus… it seemed so much larger… so much grander then… basically what I am trying to say is that somehow I feel stuck in small town mentality. Something I know all too well… and let’s just say the consequences are less than glamorous. Time to act up and make better decisions. Respectful decisions… for all parties involved… and let us be frank: when a relationship isn’t working… it’s just foreshadowing to what is inevitable. Call me a downer… or a realist... either way, I know (whether or not I choose to listen is another question) healthy relationships come from logical, direct, honest choices. And, when you make that choice… make sure that your perspective beau isn't wrapped up in a "we" situation.
