Kelly, you make a great point. You know, an old friend once gave me a t-shirt that reads: "Better alone than in poor company!" And it's true. I continue to remind myself that while I search for "the one," it's better that I'm single considering my options than dealing with a loser.

Although every once in a while I backtrack and get a little weak. But that's all a mindgame.

Such a brave thing to do, I agree! Although her year was really intense, it is a reflection on all of our dating ups and downs, and how we can press on despite frustrations about not meeting "the one". I think dating ends up being more about finding yourself through the experience---finding out who you are and what REALLY matters to you. It's a gift in that respect to be single and searching.

I appreciate your thoughts and I completely agree!...

First time on your blog and liked your post.

I followed that story for most of the year, because I was inspired by her 'gumption'. It's sad she didn't meet 'the one', but her story makes it clear that you've got to stay in the game if you want to find love. Unfortunately for the timid among us, the man of our dreams is not going to show up on our doorstep and say 'Here I am'.

So, I'll be watching your progress as I too work hard at keeping my eye on the prize.

I heard about her and surprised that the amount of guys she dated, she didn't find her guy. But despite that, I'm sure she really learned a lot about herself.

One thing I know I am doing this year is taking chances. That means contacting guys I normally wouldn't (cause I think they may be out of my league) or dating guys I would have possibly brushed off before (who cares if he's only 5'5"? Gulp.) Less than a week into 2010 it's already paying off...but even if it doesn't work out with this new guy, at least I feel less hesitant about getting myself out there more.

Good luck to you this year--I'll be reading along, hoping you find the guy!
