Getting to know

Dating is difficult at any age. It is especially difficult for me because I’m an introvert.

The older we get, we know a potential partner comes with baggage: children, debt, ex’s, for starters. We hold our breath with anxious dread waiting for the crazy to drop.

I let someone get in my head and convince me that a guy was interested in me. He’s older than me. I attract older men so I bought it hook line and sinker. This is fine?

As time progressed, I started paying attention. She might be right, this guy might be interested. He’s flirty, nice, and hey! He has a job! This is fine.

God so has my back. This was not to be. For this reason or that the curiosity ended.

One day, I’m chatting with my bestie. Come to find out, she knows this guy. And yes, God so has my back. He has more baggage than a 747 fully loaded. Baggage that I couldn’t begin to deal with nor do I want to.

Thank you God!
