This is the first post in a long while where I bring up a relatively overlooked topic on this site, dating. I decided long ago when I started dating I wouldn’t really talk about it in my blog. The reasons are many hopefully obvious reasons. It is easy not to talk about individual dates hear and there. My dilemma is what do you do when you find yourself entering into a relationship with someone? Did I just say relationship? Wow, kinda not sure else how to categorize, it so yeah.
So what do you do when your personal life involves someone else more and more? I figure I can blank out that part of my life from writing about, or I can openly include it. For the past several weeks I didn’t know 100% where things were going, so it was an easy decision to leave out things. After several weeks of getting to know someone and liking what you learn, I guess you want to write about it. That and the more you go out with someone the less I have to write about other things since I spend more time with her. It has started making writing a bit more difficult.
What I decided to do was just write about everything anyway and not post anything. That way I can still write. Ironically I was discussing with her writing about a party we went to for her birthday this Saturday that I said I wouldn’t post anything right now. I also offered to let her read what I wrote. I was slightly surprised when she said she didn’t mind me posting things if I wanted to. I guess that is why I like her in the first place. She is really cool.
So here I am writing about a girl for the first time in years. It is kind of awkward, but really cool at the same time. Her name is Beata. I meet her online. There was a time when I would be embarrassed to say that, but I have come to think that online dating is a great tool.
