It's a beautiful Sunday, just got back from taking the puppies on a little hike... My way of relieving some of the guilt of thinking I don't spend enough time with them (and they LOVE it!).. and also my way of helping myself lose some weight. ... Always see those memes now "remember when we used to joke that we were fat when we weren't... I'd kill to be that 'fat' now," or something along those lines,

(went and found it afterwards)

Anyways, that's not what was on my mind today.

Today... I'm thinking relationships. Or lack there of. With being newly single, it's definitely something to learn. Especially when you're a bit older. Dating and relationships. What is that anymore? I don't think girls get asked out on dates anymore. There's no romancing or woo-ing (haha).

It seems no one wants to be in a relationship, but they don't want you to be in one either. (That make sense?). No one wants to commit, no one wants to settle down. This world is crazy and moving so fast, I'm struggling to keep up.

I've lived my whole life wanting certain things. Never wanted too much, I don't think anyways. I just wanted an okay job, a nice house, a husband and a family. Clearly, too much. Haha. (I think I was born in the wrong decade).

There's so much freedom now-a-days, all the traveling and whatnot, who wants to settle down, really?!  So many options. Options for everything! One of the hardest decisions is what's for dinner these days! haha the struggle of having too many options. .. And I feel it's that way with people too. There's too many options and I suppose I can't blame anyone for not wanting to settle with just one of those options.... Who wants to settle for a chicken nugget when a filet mignon could be around the corner?

Haha I hope in the scheme of things, I'm worth more than being a nugget (even though they are quite delightful at times). But you get what I mean, why settle when there's just so much available to you. I get it.

I completely get it.
