So here I am 24 years of age, and since the dawn of time have not been able to maintain any sort of relationship (family and friends don't count) longer than 3 months. It really is quite odd. This all started my senior year of high school and has continued on now into my twenty-something life. Most people by this time have had at least one if not many long-term relationships. In my time here I have had 2 relationships each of which lasted 3 months. In California it was the same...only 3 months. So what is this you ask? Is this a case of Julia Roberts syndrome? Ya know, after 3 months commitment seems impossible. Well a few years ago I would have said yes. But as time is progressing and I find myself getting older I am realizing that a solid relationship, although not necessary, would be a nice touch in my life. I had a conversation with a friend recently who told me the day I rang him to tell him I was in a serious relationship would be the day he would have a heart attack and perhaps even die. This didn't upset me, because he's been saying this since we were 13, but it did get me thinking. And thinking is all I have done since. Perhaps it isn't me at all who is the one phobic of commitment but instead the roll is reversed. It could also be that in the last 4 years I haven't lived in one place longer than a year without getting up and moving out. So that could be part of it. No matter what the reason, its quite wired. The day this 3 month curse expires will be a happy day. But until then it is back to life as usual. Keeping busy and making and maintaining friendships. Its a good thing I am content being single. :) Well there is my random venting.
2 weeks and counting till the marathon. Dear Lord! I am nervous already. Pray for good weather (no rain) it will make the run much more enjoyable.
Well this is me signing off! Thanks for reading!
