an engaging time...

I’ve been playing on Facebook and MySpace less and less these days. Logging on only to see the new pictures and comments I’ve been tagged to, but lately, I’ve been looking at all the people who are getting engaged. Crazy enough, most all of them are younger than me. I mean, is that what people want these days in college? Yes and No. Many girls (and boys, but mostly girls) have always had this mentality. I’ve apparently just never been friends with them. A majority of my friends don’t even have serious boyfriends. What does this say about us? I’ll tell you—it says that we were waaaay toc into hanging out with each other. We’d rather get drunk and do crazy things that we’ll always remember; rather than going through a semester trying to make this fraternity guy, that mom and dad will absolutely love, be faithful.

At the time, I think I might have actually wanted to be her (the girl that got engaged in college then got married soon after). In retrospect, I sabotaged every one of my “could be” relationships because subconsciously I didn’t want to be her. All the others, that I actually enjoyed…I knew they wouldn’t last anyways. I suppose I was just enjoying the fun.
