Hi there debzmite,
Welcome to Beyond Blue and thank you for coming here to post.
I guess the more we want something, and when it doesn’t happen, the more frustrating that becomes – especially when you see others, etc. I think it’s a thing where the options for what you do can play into your hands for how the future pans out.
I love it when you said that you are adventurous and smart and love sports – three biggies there for me. Now you’ve also mentioned some other things, and followed that up by saying ‘who the heck would want that?’ – well, initially ‘they’ don’t have to know about any of that.
What I’m saying here is, if you do enjoy your sports, and you’re able to participate then get out there and do them. Or do the ones that you’re able to do. Sport is a great way of meeting people – like-minded people playing the same sport, helps for the ease of enjoyment and even the conversation, where you’re initially talking about the same thing, well, potentially.
Being adventurous is another high quality string to your bow – and this lends itself again to meeting others who share in that same enjoyment; but again, you need to find the kind of thing that gets the blood flowing – from rock-climbing (indoor, I’d probably go with) or abseiling (not sure if you can do that indoor).
But again, these kinds of things lends you to being ‘out in the public eye’ and potentially meeting up with new people.
I guess as you know, the thing would be NOT to go looking for that someone special – just get out there and then see what stems from that.
I hope I’ve mentioned something at least a little helpful.
Neil
