I was happy with the new single me. It allowed me to be selfish with my time.. I never really had a schedule I had to stick to and perhaps more importantly, being single gave me the chance to devote my time to finishing my master's thesis. I'm the type of girl that will be distracted if there's a distraction, who will feel guilty when I can't see someone I should, and who really needs more down time. Being single allowed me to focus on myself and what needed to get done.
There were boys here and there. I wasn't interested. I was totally devoted to this new me. But one stuck it seems and I couldn't shake him outta my head...and with the incessant encouragement of friends, I agreed to a date. Three dates later and going on a fourth tomorrow, I can honestly say I'm smitten.
I'm still kinda awkward and sometimes I have little freakouts internally... but this one has potential. I'm quite content on seeing where this one goes. I'm feeling quite grown up about this... but like a little school girl all at the same time. Being wined and dined and not having to worry about paying for everything is certainly a nice change... I'll get over the associated guilt eventually (hopefully).
