I live in Charleston, SC. I am in my late 20's. I am a college graduate. I have a successful career. I have a loving family and great friends. I love the outdoors. I am not rich, but do ok. I don't like adult cartoons. I hate it when someone gives you a wet willy. I love my dog. I have never had a serious relationship. I have only been with one person. I am single, in the city.
Growing up - I had the two most loving parents you could ever meet in your life. They never fought with each other, they always held hands, always said I love you. They have been married for 30 years next fall. My mom never worked while I was growing up, instead she stayed home with my brother and I until we were in high school. The four of us were (and still are) a very happy family. Because of my up bringing I have only ever desired one thing, a family.
I used to joke that in college I was getting my MRS. degree. After graduation came and went and the real world slapped me in the face I ended up here in Charleston. I got a job doing what I love and was on my way to a great career. This is something I never imagined. Truthfully I never wanted a career. I just wanted to graduate and get married - imagine my surprise when I found myself loving my job.
So here I am, 27 and single. I know, I am young right? What's the rush? No rush really. I just wish that there was a promise of my dream of having a family to come true. Right now, there's nothing. Like I said, I have a great family and amazing friends, but at the end of the day - I have nothing to come home to, and that gets a little old. It's the same story with me, one failed disfunctioning non-relationship after the next. I have terrible luck with men, I am serious. You'll see.
So over the next several posts I will share my thoughts (with whoever) on my love life or lack there of, my relationships of the past - and anything that may happen to come up in the future.
Til next time,
Still Single In The City
