I finally learned a very IMPORTANT lesson. Until you can be alone, and can be HAPPY being alone, finding a good relationship will be a struggle. You'll be in danger of jumping into another dysfunctional union just to avoid being alone.
The only man I have or want in my life right now has 4 legs, sleeps on my bed, burps, farts, snores and demands dinner at 5pm........
I can't say "never", but I don't see a relationship for me for a good, long time, if ever.
I'm enjoying the alone time as opposed to the loneliness of living with an A.
Oh, and where I moved is a beautiful city on the West Coast, just a bonus.
