Raising the bar

by @ 6:02 pm. Filed under boys

So this weekend I was out  observing life.  Once again the imaginary bar was raised.  I was staying with married friends of mine.  [BTW. I am fortunate that my friend married someone awesome (it really sucks when your friend marries someone you don't like to hang out with).]

We met in college.  We went to different schools.  We hung out periodically.  He treated me better than anyone I have ever dated.  Yet for some reason we never went there.  He and one other have set the standard.  I see how they are with their wives.  The every day.  Through sickness (there has been lots of sickness) and health.  Through bedhead and morning breath.  Then they kick it up a notch by doing something spectacular (like restoring a broken childhood toy or a kidnapping/surprise vacation). Both of them are the reason that I can’t accept something less.

So after my weekend observing life I decided to delete my online profile.  Sorry Mr. Rudder, it’s not going to work out.  I don’t think I can find what I am looking for on your site.  What I am looking for is not so easily found.

A group of women who decided that it was important to live their lives any way they wanted vs living up to certain cookie cutter standards. Lucky for you they decided to share their adventure.
