It's been a while

I haven't written a new post in months! In some ways, this is because it's been a while since my life took any very exciting turns, which sounds depressing. However, I am enjoying the complete and utter lack of drama in my life. I am in a routine that I stick to by choice more than by obligation. I have different groups of friends associated with my various interests. I am single.

Well... ok that last one is somewhat less than true. I just started seeing someone recently. I've gone on a few dates in the past couple of months, but this is the first guy that I can honestly say I like. The others had many promising attributes (one was a lawyer, the other a handsome aspiring actor), but I didn't connect with them. I was starting to think that since I've grown up so much since my last relationship, maybe the initial attraction just wasn't going to feel the same way anymore. I was partially right. I don't have the same butterflies that I used to get, but that's not such a bad thing. Now I'm more confident in myself, so I'm not anxiously waiting to see if he'll call. So far so good, but I'm very wary of putting myself at risk emotionally. Also, I like my life the way it is, so I don't want to make too many concessions for him. Oh wow, it's been a while since I've had to deal with all of this, and I'm not completely sure that I want to go through it.
