y'know, there's a lot to be said for being on my own. i don't have to answer to anyone. i can do (or not) what i want, when i want. i can have the friends i want to have without taking shit for it. i get all the time to myself that i need, without making someone else feel unneeded, neglected, rejected

I've kind of noticed that what kind of people you are a magnet for changes quit a lot over time in my own experience. Maybe the same will be true for you, no?

how's the new place? are you all settled now?

yes, i think you're right about attraction/magnetism changing over time. but i'm worried my own personal magnet only knows how to change from frying pan to fire!

seriously, is dating the only way to find out whether i'm still attracting abusers and control freaks? i wish someone would invent a blood test...!

What do you think would help you get out there? A ladies night out? A personals ad writing party? I bet we could make it fun and then it would be a litlte less scary, you know?

What if you approached it as: I'm going to interview some people? Take the temperature out there? See what it's like? One tiny step instead of focusing on the big meaning of it all?

I'm willing to roll up my sleeves and pitch in! :) xoxoxo

i've been thinking about how to answer your questions ever since i read them two days ago.

and i'm still incoherent!

can we talk for a bit when i see you tomorrow (not that any of our time should be about me!)? maybe putting my thoughts, ideas and feelings into words will make them more real, and provide me with some clarity?

who knows? but i'm sure we'll get some laughs out of it!

the idea of a personals ad (for me) written by you with your help gives me a BIG THRILL though. awesome in so many ways.
