It's funny, you leave college with a few close friends that you are sure you'll stay in touch with over the years, and then those that you'd like to stay in touch with but figure it will be one of those every few months we have a good conversation sort of things. Now that I'm out of college for two and a half years, that has been turned on its head. I'm pretty good friends with people who I wouldn't have thought I would be (and glad to have them back in my life). We reunited at weddings or birthdays or through facebook, and it's pretty cool. It's a welcome change and they are cool people, so I'm happy about that.
On a different note, back to birthday weekend...my friends tried to find me a guy, but didn't find any (as I mentioned yesterday), and I starting thinking about how it would be nice to have a boyfriend...yeah I said it. I was talking to my roommate about it since she is dating this guy who is in Iraq right now, and she's like "you know, you usually find a guy when you stop looking." Now, I've heard that before, so its no big surprise to me, but as I'm sitting there ruminating about it I'm thinking how it's not that I'm actively looking, but that no matter what I do it's always on my mind. Friends are getting engaged and married, others are dating amazing guys all over the world, then there's me...hopelessly single. No matter where I go or what I do, I never seem to meet guys who are interested in me or vice versa. Maybe it's because lately I've been looking (perhaps subconsciously), but I can't figure out how to stop looking. It's always in the back of my mind...how do you stop looking for a guy? I'm going to try to enjoy being single (well...I always do anyway) and not think about finding a guy.
If you have any suggestions on not thinking about boys....PLEASE let me know.
