Wow Bowz......how articulate. I feel the same way.
Just been thinking about that actually the past day or two.
People have to be whole within themselves first, and after following many on their journeys to "find themselves" AND raising two kids; I'm not about to volunteer my services and wait for anyone else to grow up.

My kids are learning the same lessons, rather painfully and now they're both single and OK with that. I don't need anyone to validate me, just appreciate me. I know who I am and I even LIKE myself! And there's a few bachelors around within my age group I'm keeping my eye on. After what I was through with the last one, I'm in no hurry to get hurt again.
Amen.
