dating..
its a game!
no rules-
no winners-
several chances
to get it right
or mess it up..
a game.
When the phone
does not ring
when expected..
I think:
"if he does not call by 10:00 I am done!"...
then:
"if that phone does not ring by 10:10 its over!"
then:
"10:20 is my final offer!!"....
then:
10:25 the phone rings,
I pick it up and sweetly say:
"hello?"..
as if I am totally surprised my phone rang!
*sigh*
a game!!!:)
However-
the only way to enjoy
the game
is to know...
sure, you might get hurt!
sure, you might hurt someone else...
but, no matter the outcome-
you will be OK!
You have been OK before..
and you can be OK again!!
If that is not there..
the game becomes about desperation..
the stakes get to high!
I am willing to roll the dice
and make a bet or 2...
I am willing to take a chance
on the least likely outcome...
I can take the risk
on a lucky hunch...
because I won this game
when I learned that playing it
is my CHOICE!
You know Debbie - you make me wish I lived in America! I just love your attitude - perhaps because your words help me at this time.
ReplyDeleteSo true, it can be a game. As long as you are confident in yourself (as you describe). It is more of an adventure than a game. You know, you too can be too busy to answer :)
ReplyDeleteI think when you finally meet someone who makes you feel like it is not a "game" it makes it all worth it.
ReplyDeleteSpencer- that made me smile!
ReplyDeleteNot a soccer mom- VERY true!!
