Got your attention huh? lol;-) So somebody recommended it that had had a great experience....initially my understanding of it was that it was to be friends of friends you have on facebook exclusively.....but I have found that not to be true......there is some of that, but then others mixed in......the upside for me is it is truly is 100% free......no hidden fees or having to pay to interact with anybody......I have to say that paying for dating sites is the worst, and especially when you are like me and don't date lol:) however I persist......I suppose because how really would I meet people? And I find it wildly fascinating so.....;-) It is not easy for sure......so FB dating has been kinda interesting actually......there is a mix of people on there......some jaded and tired of the dating scene, games, etc....and wanting real connection......some compelling and interesting and some in between....but it always occurs to me.........why is it so damn difficult?? right?? I was thinking about it the other day.....I was in the grocery store, getting a prescription, and watching an old couple walk by......she was lovingly looking up at him as he was talking to her about ice cream or something and I could tell they had been together forever......and it warmed my heart......I always fancied myself that kind of person......ride or die......forever.......happily ever after.....until I didn't........and that is what the world is full of.....those that truly found their person.....the person to walk through all of their days with......people that struggle to connect at all or find love at all, and then the middle age folks, carrying some battle scars and some lists of what they do and don't want......wandering around in the middle.....not sure what they are seeking but hoping they will know when they find it......however already having proven to themselves that they can roll alone......which is wildly powerful......intoxicating really.....and likely keeps people stuck.......or maybe not stuck but unwilling......because once you realize you can be OK alone.....or even better than OK alone.....your willingness to navigate the waters of complicated relationships lessens I suppose......unless it is really worth it.....so last night I came across a very interesting profile that I liked very much......and I swiped right, liking him......realizing directly after that now he was gone forever....lol :) .because to communicate with somebody on FB dating you apparently have to click a picture of theirs to write them a message.....so after liking his, I knew the only way we would cross paths again was if he liked mine too in return.....and lo and behold I woke up to him just doing that;-) ......what was interesting is that I am never that invested.....which maybe is wherein lies the issue.....I sort of let it all ride....keep it light......not laden with expectation or any of the rest.....but this particular one was sort of a pang of wishing I had known better the rules of engagement on FB dating....and hadn't fumbled it......but turns out the universe handled it lol:) So I will message him and see what I see......not taking it all too seriously.....not worrying about it at all.....just trusting that it will all come......in due time......exactly as it should:)
