When is it MY Turn???

Vent ON

It's been just over two years now since separating. In that time I've met ONE guy for coffee. No dates.

My ex has had a girlfriend/lover for over nine months now. My best friend separated a year ago and has a boyfriend. My neighbour separated a few months ago & has dates coming out the ying-yang. Another neighbour has been seeing someone for a few months now. Another friend broke up with her boyfriend a couple weeks ago and has been asked out on a date by someone else. When the HELL is it MY turn??

I've been getting out a lot this year, doing lots of different things, been really working at putting my life back together & overall despite my battles with depression, I think I've been doing a good job of it. My friends say I'm smart, funny, good-looking & fun to be with. Are they blowing smoke up my ass? If not, where the hell are the guys who think that?

Tried tha dating site thing - and the only offers I got were NOT for dating!

I MISS having someone to talk to about everyday stuff, to share my hopes and dreams with, to philosophize with, to laugh with. I miss the intimacy of a big hug, a liongering kiss, a soft touch, arms around me at night. I miss "in" jokes and doing things for a man I care about. I miss feeling wanted, needed and respected in a role other than mother.

I want to meet someone, get to know them, date, explore each other's minds and bodies and souls ........

but I can't even get to the first part if feels like!

A very touchy blog.But you know ,people are never happy for what they have at present.You long for a man who you can care about,I long for a small kid I can hold close to my heart.It is strange how emmotions work.

Oh Sharda, I'm sorry to hear of your longing .... I felt that for a long time & it took a while for my son to be conceived and I know I am lucky, thank you for reminding me ofcthat!
