I’ve met a girl – and I think she is quite nice. I guess I wasn’t really expecting it, for whatever reason I haven’t really ever got to know a Christian girl that is mature and lovely and Godly and, well, pleasant. But I went to a new church this morning and bang, there she was. Continue reading
If I had a dollar for every time I said “I’m definitely going to be single forever” I’d be a pretty rich person.
But through a phenomenally crazy series of events, I’m not single anymore. Continue reading
So things have been going well with ‘Mr Potential’…I’ve been to his place for dinner a few times, and he’s had dinner at mine. We’re still messaging regularly, and we were both at a camping trip with a group of friends. But…there still hasn’t been a conversation about what’s going on between us, and I don’t know what his intentions are. I’m assuming from his actions that he’s at least a bit interested and is spending time getting to know me before making a decision either way…but I can’t be sure (it sure would be handy to be a mind reader haha!!).

I’ve been thinking a lot lately…about what happens when after an incredibly long time, your life situation changes?
For example: you’ve always, ALWAYS, been the single person, but then through nothing but sheer luck of the draw your status changes and you are no longer single. But your closest confidants are single, your life routines are based on being single, you fight hard for single people to be heard and valued, and you had your future planned out for being single.

In Australia we just celebrated Mother’s Day…and I find it to be a strange day. On one hand, I am excited to celebrate my own mother, and my friends who are incredible mothers, but then I am also weighed down by the thought ‘I should have been a mother by now…” Continue reading
So you’ve entered into the ‘fuzzy friendship’ stage with someone, where you feel something more, but you aren’t sure if all the extra hanging out is leading to ‘more than friends’… how do you actually sit comfortably in that unknown without shutting down your feelings? Continue reading
So this evening I went to a dinner with 3 families. Food and company was great, but they all had kids and partners, and I was the only one there who is alone.
Top that off with 6 friends giving birth to gorgeous babies in the last 3 weeks…and it’s been an emotionally tough day. Continue reading
I’m the type of person that likes answers and things to be sorted quickly.
If I’ve made a mistake, I need it to be rectified yesterday! If there’s a problem at work, or something isn’t as efficient as it should be, I will work on a solution non-stop until the problem is solved.
Hence why I think a lot of my blog posts have been about how I trust God with the unknown of how long my singleness might last. Continue reading
When it’s right, you’ll just know…..right??
Who knows!!
Ah, that famous saying regarding relationships. I can think of at least 5 times over the last few years when I have burst into the lounge room to declare to my housemate that “I just know this guy is right for me cause it just feels so right”
Blah. So how come every single stinking time I have been so wrong??? Continue reading
Within the last few weeks, 8 friends have announced they are pregnant (July was evidently a happening month for a lot of people…). Now, I’m pretty good at dealing with friends getting pregnant, and I have good coping mechanisms up my sleeve… Continue reading
