Not sure that's the best example, but in any case if it involves waiting.. patiently waiting.. well of course that eats me up.
Oh Lord can I ever relate to this. Not from a dating standpoint but just the extreme impatience that I feel a lot of the time. And the melodrama I stir up if I don't feel I am getting the attention I need RIGHT NOW. I don't have the answers other than to say it would probably help us to get active lives so we don't have so much time to obsess over getting what we want RIGHT NOW and probably in terms of relationships, the most successful people I know meet someone doing whatever it is they enjoy and take their time with all of it.
Best wishes to you!
