Girls

Girls....Ladies...the women, heh. I don't know. I'm not sure what I'm doing about that situation. I'm not sure if I'm ready for a relationship yet. I don't feel like I need to be in one. Then again, who knows. My good friend Lauren pretty much summed it up the other day when she was asking for some advice about a guy. She said "the part I love about being single is that I don't feel obligated to check in with someone."   It's a very simple point, but it hits home, you are free when you are single.  It is indeed nice to not have to worry about offending someone with your actions.  The team becomes you and yourself.  

Being in college rocks, I like meeting people, making minor mistakes, learning, going to strange places, being put in diverse situations, and talking with other young vibrant minds. While in a relationship, you are restricted from doing certain things because you shouldn't play with your partner's emotions. There is also a standard for the way you should act in a relationship, and doing some of the things I want to do are taken away with that. 


The thing is, I feel like you can do more with a certain person, even as fun as college is and when there is so much going on. The sacrifice of all that "playing around" is worth it because of what you share with that person. Of course this is all untrue if that 'significant other' isn't the right one for you and takes you away from being yourself. 

Single now is good.
