I wonder if any of my single girl friends ever use the same rationalization strategy that I sometimes do when it comes to being single...

No matter how pronounced the deficit of nice young men in my area, I can always feel better by reminding myself, "That's okay, So & So is out there and is single." So & So would be any of a number of great guys whom I've known, and who for whatever reason I never dated (geographical, timing, my introversion). Historically, this has worked pretty well as a self-reassurance strategy, because there have been many guys in this category. However... those ranks seem to be continuously dwindling. Case & point, the cutest guy ever from home (alias Squeaky) is engaged. Tragedy of the decade.

Of course it's not really the tragedy of the decade, because we don't keep in touch, probably wouldn't be good for each other anyway, and I'm extremely glad he's happy. I guess it's only tragic in that he's not "out there ,and single" anymore. But it's times where I go off on tangents like these that I really have to put these thoughts aside and have faith. I have to have faith not just that God will bring the right guy to me, but have faith that if he doesn't, then that's the better outcome in his plan.

So I am thinking of maybe trying this again.

It has been a strange kind of day, but very productive! Got my taxes done.

I'm so confused and so struggling with the big-picture decisions, lol, 'life decisions.' Praying about it but not seeing a clear answer yet. :(
