Ok, I actually don't know the average I spend on groceries as it tends to fluctuate depending on what I need to get at the time.
I have not actually been in a relationship yet. But, I am more then ready now. I actually chose to wait till I had sorted myself out and raised my self esteem and got older so I could get together with someone in the age group I'm interested in with out it seeming too odd.
But now, I'm ready for my, uhh, own "BBM" experience so to speak. However, patience is a virtue. ;D
Sincerely, Kat.

I spend about $150 to $200 in groceries every two weeks between my parents, my nieces and I, plus two big dogs and 3 cats. I mostly shop and Sams. Living in the suburbs of Philadelphia is fairly expensive.
I've been divorced for 10 yrs. In the beginning I liked being single and "finding" myself again. Recently I started dating but nothing sparked not even a click, pretty sad isn't it.
This guy I dated a couple of times decided that it we were better as friends and we do have fun together.
I'm still waiting for my Jack to spark my Ennis. Someone that shrares my quriky interests of art, Broadway, movies, going to the circus, hockey, going to Soho on the weekends in the sumer and horses, horses, horses.

Don't say that. Meeting and dating different people can be fun too, even if you don't click. At least you had a date! Just enjoy it. Someone will come along.

I've come to the realization that is not always them, sometimes it is me. I can be self centered at times. And you are always the last to know you are being self centered until someone points it out.
I've lived alone now for the last 10 years. It doesn't bother me. Thankgoodness for the internet. That helps kill any bordom and need for outside contact when needed. What I do misss is having single friends to do things with. No, not just sex. LOL. Although a few friends with benefits doesn't hurt. ::)

I just read an interesting sentence in a book I was reading. The main character was asking another man why his mother refused the other man's marriage proposal. The man responded without rancor:
"She wisely refused me, saying she thought I was quite unfit for marriage to anyone...she perceived...that I am a natural bachelor and much too fond of my own company and habits to make the adjustments required by marriage..."
Relationships require a lot of compromise and some of us sometimes just aren't ready/able/willing to make those adjustments. I don't find that self-centered. You like what you like.
I find that another year has begun, I'm still single, men still find me very attractive, but I have no urge to make the effort to meet men. I'm hardly asexual, my libido was always as high or higher than my ex-lovers, but I just find it too much trouble and am more concerned with saving money to buy a house and I don't need any unnecessary expenses :P
Are intimate relationships necessary?
