The nice and healthy ones that I would be interested in so far are already taken.
Logically, it doesn't make sense that all the nice ones are taken - you aren't!
I had to accept that it was not in MY time, but in the time it took. In the beginning of my own recovery, I also seemed to keep drawing in unavailable people, even from within Al-Anon. I realize now it's because I wasn't done doing my own work.
I know the life of a teacher is extremely busy (my sister is one) - but do you volunteer for anything outside of work?
