Fear Not: A Mini Autobiography

I have this fear.  Yet I have this passion.  So now I'm letting go of the fear and writing about the passion.

Woo.  Give me a sec.  Ok.  Here goes all.

My passion is relationships.  To see healthy and whole relationships.  The funnest - yes, I just said that and I'm told (by me) that I can since it is my blog and all - topic is DATING.  Yep.  I love talking, reading, writing, thinking, and talking some more about dating & marrying well.

The fear:  As a 30-ish singleton I will be a spinster for life.  By talking about marrying I will avoid marriage all together.  Then again, I have inspiration in my life.  Most recent is Ally Spotts and her now fiancé Darrell Vesterfelt.  Ally talked about singleness...and is now getting married!  I thought to myself, "ok, if she can do it" then I can do it.  Plus, Darrell had some great male posts on her site about relationships.  I'd been thinking of asking them how to get started, but I was scared.  Then the craziest thing happen.  They showed up in my small town and the coffee shop I was drinking my latte at.  They were my singleton "idols", okay people it's in quotes so don't worry.

I did go over and say "hi".  But that was about it.  I was all trying to be nonchalant about meeting them.  I knew within myself that I just had to put myself out here in the WWW.

So...here I am.
