The reason why…
Over the past year, I’ve had some pretty bizarre romantic encounters, to say the least. From a short-lived whirlwind in the summer, to a bring-back-the-fire sort of thing, to month-long flings, to a two-date marriage proposal, and finally, to two marriage proposals through Facebook from complete strangers. I guess I could say that its been quite a crazy year for me in this aspect of my life. And people still often ask me why I’m still single. I’ll tell you why.
I’m not in pursuit of Mr. Right, nor of Mr. Right-Now. I don’t even think that the perfect man for me exists, as I can definitely say that I’ve dated men whom I’ve thought to be perfect, but turned out not so. Things usually just happen. Sparks fly and you just feel like you click. But then again, if you can’t feed the fire, sparks eventually just die down. I guess that’s what generally happens to me.
All I can say is that all I truly want is a partner in life. And not necessarily in a romantic sense. I want someone who’ll be a jock playing football, who’ll channel his inner artist when I want to go dancing at a club, or even at a studio for some hiphop. I want someone who’ll have both the humor of my funniest friends, and the ability to have good intellectual conversations. And finally, I want someone who’ll be game to go out on spontaneous adventures, but still would be perfectly happy to stay in watching an old movie and pigging out on junk food on a couch.
I’m still single because this partner hasn’t come along yet…again. ;)
