Of all the dates that have come and gone and the seldom few that have been promoted to boyfriend, the common denominator for the fights have been... well, me. Gloves high, sure, I can take a hit but boy-oh-boy can I throw one. Most of the ones impacting those I date are intentional and mild, but the ones from the inside- the dirty shots, are the ones from me to me. And I have a nasty right hook... Self-doubt BAM Self-esteem POW Insecurities WAP Sabotage SLAM Fear of Falling DING DING 'Call It!' I get so caught up in the now and excitement of the ring, that if I would've stopped to review the logistics, I probably wouldn't have entered the ropes. So now, I'm mid-ring with an opponent with mutual attraction and I'm ill-prepared for what's to come. My blog has captured, or at least tried to, the different ventures out of singleness, but each road, path, or dim-lit track has brought me back here. It's like I've maxed 647 horsepower, only to catch a glimpse of a mustard "dead end" sign. I'm rearing to go, gaining speed with the wind in my hair and then I take a detour, they change the street light, or we both exit the vehicle while it's on cruise. I've become accustomed to the ride and singleness has almost become an identity, which until recently, I've been oblivious the comfort it provides. Then, out of the wood-works comes this boy, whom by looking at me makes me feel home. With no plan and no real knowledge of my opponent, I get into the ring with this fairy tale idea that a traveling buddy is all I've needed. He cuddles you, is bound to be loyal, and smiles at you, while calling you his and then... the inevitable.
