October Photo Challenge. Day 18. What I Want. It's no secret I'd love to find someone worthy of being in a relationship with. Frankly, I'm at my very best in a healthy relationship. But am I going to settle or lower my standards to have one? Absolutely not! I refuse to lower my standards for anyone. I want fun. I want laughter. I want romance. I want deep, serious, intellectual conversations. I want silliness. I want passion. I want a best friend. I want someone who shares my beliefs. I want someone to adventure and travel with. I want someone to sit at home and watch movies with, cuddled up on the couch. I want someone to cook with and for. I want to share my hopes and dreams and affection with the right person. I want someone whose fingers fill the spaces between mine. I want someone I'm deeply attracted to and vice versa. But, I'm not going to date just to date. I think the fact that I've only briefly dated 2 guys in almost 10 years can attest to that. I'm a mom first, at this point. Even if I date, I'm a mom first. It's really hard to find men these days that understand that and don't, on some level, resent that fact...while being the above as well. So, I'll wait. I'm ok with that. As I stated in my previous post, you've got to be your own best friend, and that means looking after your own best interests for the long term, not just the short term. Someday my prince in black leather or a Carhartt with a fantastic sense of humor will come. It just isn't today. #OctoberPhotoChallenge #PhotoChallenge #October #Day18 #SomethingIWant #31DaysOfOctober #31Photos #ItsFallYall #TheBerMonths #NotGoingToSettle #Relationship #Laugh #Passion #Love #SomedayMyPrinceWillCome #JustNotToday #SingleMom #SingleMomLife https://www.instagram.com/p/CG9Cm8Jg5lG/?igshid=1pnkq0zps1kxj
