I am doing the same. It got to a point where I realized that I was happier on my own than I was rearranging my life for someone else.Clever Elsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16418117983991542947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779287853088298189.post-71110470713558392152009-05-11T10:10:00.000-05:002009-05-11T10:10:00.000-05:00Megs: I hid my profile.

I already filter the email so that they go directly to a folder instead of my inbox so the fact that I have an inactive profile there isn't bugging me too much. <br /><br />Special K and Susan: I love your suggestions (smile at 3 people a day or, if that gets too easy, fall in love 3 people a day). I am working back up to that. I am naturally a very open, joyful person but because of that I also get extremely burned out on being in public or being around people. Right now I am still restoring my energies and filling up my reservoir of joy. I'm getting there. Baby steps.<br /><br />Kahnee: I am way too shy to jog with boys! That would be way harder than talking to them standing still. The thought of exercising with a member of the opposite sex really intimidates me.The Singlutionaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11199194725578216599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779287853088298189.post-68035956638726677112009-05-11T07:08:00.000-05:002009-05-11T07:08:00.000-05:00I totally agree with Special K, and I think it's g...I totally agree with Special K, and I think it's great that you can feel comfortable just meeting people without an agenda. It's that ulterior motive that kills all the genuine warmth and spontaneity when meeting someone new. I saw an article once that recommended falling in love with 4 people every day. Wow, that's a tough assignment, but an interesting exercise. It forces you to look at someone new with attention, or maybe to look at someone you already know well in a new way.Susan Walshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01984275712518966508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779287853088298189.post-27219427017802187212009-05-07T12:20:00.000-05:002009-05-07T12:20:00.000-05:00A two thumbs up for quitters! Meeting other people...A two thumbs up for quitters! Meeting other people and connecting, even on a friendship level, is very challenging in our culture because usually we don't look at each other. Instead of looking for places where others might be, challenge yourself to this: SMILE at at LEAST THREE STRANGERS each day...for at least 10 seconds. It will bring light and love into your life!Special Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938792898158363548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779287853088298189.post-33824361128333529052009-05-06T18:33:00.000-05:002009-05-06T18:33:00.000-05:00I love the post.

Do you have to wait till your time is up to delete forever? Sorry for all the match related question I just find them so unhelpful. <br /><br />Isn't it great to not feel desperate and single? I think you are going to be reaping the benefits of your new found attitude even more. I can just tell you are totally rocking and loving your life. I'm so jealous you have a dog!Megshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05856569796210470854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779287853088298189.post-67411542169209965412009-05-06T16:53:00.000-05:002009-05-06T16:53:00.000-05:00I can relate to this freedom.

Three months later, I met my first boyfriend. Sure, it was nice having someone around to make out with, but I was fine either way. Good for you for pursuing contentment. It will serve you well.Akirahhttp://www.quarterlifelady.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779287853088298189.post-52909699537769781772009-05-06T16:02:00.000-05:002009-05-06T16:02:00.000-05:00I am way too shy to strike up chatter, but I'm wor...I am way too shy to strike up chatter, but I'm working on it.

I guess I just imagine myself shopping at my local grocery store and bumping into Mr. Right when it is the 'time' but who knows. You just have to be happy livin the life right? Keep on keepin on. :) lol.Stevihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07902711072451099210noreply@blogger.com
