Missing That Touch Of Romance?

Bookmark This Page

That Touch Of Romance!I live in a big city, I go out a lot, I even check out dating personals sites, but my life could still use a little touch of romance. It's not that I don't meet a lot of cool girls, it's just that there always seems to be something missing. I guess these things happen to everyone, but I'm still worried I'm being too picky or that I'm just really bad at connecting with people.

I think maybe it has something to do with getting turned down a little while ago by someone I met that I really liked. It shouldn't be a big deal and I don't usually take this kind of thing badly, but for some strange reason, for the past while, I just haven't felt myself.

Maybe the problem was that the reasons didn't really make sense. This gal just finished university and moved back home because she found work there and I think that's the only reason she didn't want to pursue anything. It's not like I'm dying for a long distance love affair, but I think it would be worth all the difficulties. Especially since she's still looking for work in the city and will probably find something before long.

I suppose my timing could've been better, but what was I supposed to do? I mean, obviously, I shouldn't have waited so long to speak up. The thing is that we'd known each other for a while, but I don't think either of us realized how close we'd become until the prospect of being apart made it so evident.

Anyway, what's done is done and it probably wasn't meant to be. I just need to shake this feeling like I've missed out on something and then maybe I'll feel that touch of romance with the next woman I meet.

I think that as soon as I can stop thinking about this relationship that didn't quite get started, everything will be back to normal. I think a lot of us imagine that the things we can't have would be some kind of perfect ideal. It's good to have dreams, but not at the expense of robbing everything else of the slightest touch of romance.
