I am just not ready to bargain for love. In a sense, the opportunity cost is too high. My heart is still raw…and I’m trying to pick up the pieces. I often wonder if I’ll be able to trust again. I guess everyone says that after a break up. There may be a supply of bad set ups but there is just no demand for dating. Yes….without dating you cannot be rich…you cannot find love. But I wonder if playing with your heart is a good investment in the long run. I’ve been dating for more than 10 years. I’ve had two relationships…both ending badly. Is it worth still investing? Or is it better to change my focus altogether? Should I focus on my pseudo lesbian family? Or my real family…what’s so bad about living with mother? Or just become career driven.....or have an arranged marriage? It is working for my friend in India. For now…I’m keeping my heart under my mattress. I am not investing…so my friends will need to find another investment. No blind dates. No internet dates.
