Well it’s officially one year! Not sure how much wiser I am, but I can at least say that I’ve had plenty of new experiences. Thirty some odd dates in one year, can’t really complain…

It’s like an unwritten rule, whenever you look your worst you run into everybody you know!

So I’ve been debating what to do now that I’m burnt out on the whole dating scene. I think it’s obvious at this point that it’s me, not you. Not sure if I ever gave you my back story but maybe this will clear things up. So let’s see, the first love is now a proud gay man (good for him), a couple of random half loves here and there, and then the first real love (or so I thought).

Let’s see, two and a half years of being completely head over heels in love, doing dumb shit that I get mad at my friends for doing nowadays (like wanting to spend every waking hour with him), and believing every line he fed to me and completely putting my trust in him. What for you ask (as if you didn’t already know)?

For him to cheat on me of course. How many times you ask? Well I guess I’ll never really know now will I. Let’s see, there’s the girl he had the baby with, I believe she was in labor while we were spending the weekend together at one of his coworker’s weddings (real stand-up guy huh). Oh and the fact that he wasn’t man enough to tell me, I had to hear it through a very trusted friend. I know there’s more women, but I really didn’t care to know the details.

So now, as has been the norm over the last two or so years, I am left wondering if I will ever trust again. Lucky for me I have a great group of male friends, who seem to give me a little hope now and then. I think it’s time to get less serious about dating, and more serious about having fun (if you know what I mean). So as for the site, who knows. I’m not ready to say good bye yet, but it’s not gonna be much of Linnea dating anymore either. I think the first step really is to stop gagging when my friends talk about their relationships. I’ll get there.

Nothing to write home about with that last date, I’ll try to get it down soon. Just another coffee date. I’ve been so busy lately that my free time basically revolves around sleeping and trying to get a workout in (oh and shopping for my new place).

So this week I started a new job, I’m still teaching some classes at three other places, and doing some freelancing, but I am really, really excited about this new place. So far things are going really well, and I’ve heard nothing but good things about the company. I’ll be moving into the new place sometime this month, and I can’t wait to decorate! Luckily my new roomate is pretty easy going, so I think as long as I resist buying the pink wrap-around couch I saw at the Salvation Army we’ll be all set. I just hope I don’t turn into more of a drunk while I’m there, or a booze bag as my co-workers so fondly refer to me.
