Life has a sense of Humor

This is something a good friend of mine has always said but he always refers to this when we talk about relationships…. those we’ve had or the relationship situations that we’ve seen or heard of. For some reason, this came to my mind tonight. Well, I guess really considering everything that is going on around me, I can see why.

I am one of those few crazy people that have decided that I will not settle when it comes to love and I know I haven’t inscribed in stone everything that I want/need in a relationship (I am getting pretty close though) but I can tell you for a fact that I know what I don’t want. I won’t deny that I’ve in the past spent time with people that I got comfortable with. Not that this is a bad thing but the reality is I’ve learned that you should not confuse “comfort” with love, but you need to be comfortable with the person you love… (Yeah, I think I just lost me in that thought)

It gets more complex because I am a happy person. To an extent, I THINK I can almost be happy regardless of the stage in life I find myself in (I THINK). This tends to make it hard for me to make decisions. In the initial stages of a friendship/relationship, I feel as though if I get attention then yeah… I am closer to thinking that whoever gives me this attention in actual fact likes/loves me. I am learning that it may just mean that they enjoy my company as well.

The life sense of humor comes into play when someone or a few good people actually want to spend time with you and you are not into them and you in some cases, at that point in time, want to spend time with someone else who is probably not into you or they are and the timing is just wrong. I find that this tends to be the norm for the most part of life. I’ll give an example, some guy was willing to drive approximately 30 minutes to come see me and I said “No, If he was in the neighborhood he could stop by but I don’t want him to go through the trouble of driving down”. The reality is that if I wanted to spend time with this person I would not mind driving 4 hours (which is my normal drive to see my parents for the weekend) or catching a 6 – 7 hour flight (which is how long it takes me to do an East Coast, West Coast trip like my Miami trip) and I would not have thought about it for longer than a second.

I am definitely growing up because I am learning so much about life, friendships and relationships.
This year has been good for me because I have opened up to a lot of new things, new adventures, friendships and opportunities and I have to admit that so far, I love it. I don’t have a conclusion or anything but I just wanted to get my thoughts out… Let me know what you think
