Paradigm Shift!

Since I came back from Vancouver I feel that someone has hit me in the head, hard!

What was I thinking, looking at dating as work? Dating is supposed to be about meeting new people and fun.

To be honest, I have learned a lot from dating. I have gone out with people from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds. I learned their languages, their customs and their wisdom.

What has always frustrated me is that I tried to make the other person happy and that left myself unhappy! I need to learn to say NO the moment I am not having fun anymore.

If I change my attitude, instead of feeling "taken advantage of" after every date, I will feel happy and content.

I love my life and I am happy about the direction that I am going. Why not take the same attitude and use it in my social life?

Leili is probably laughing at me and saying "girl, you are growing up!". Well, some people are late bloomers!

I owe this to Mona and her advice.

People, I have been saved!
