New year, new way to love

Title sounds like a self-help book, eh?

It's the Friday before New Year's Eve. Do you have your resolutions ready? Any of them related to love, relationships, dating?

New Year's Eve 2005, mine was "Get out and date more."

After a slew of e-mails, a number of phone calls, a passel of dates, a no-strings relationship and one ill-advised (in hindsight) relationship, my dating resolution for 2007 was: "Figure out what I want in a relationship."

I think I'm still working on that one, though I'd say I've made some progress. (And had some unexpected revelations along the way.)

What's yours for the year of 2008?

I DO have one. But I'm not telling unless you tell me yours :)

I resolve to be more open to pursuing new types of relationships, not just the tried and true ones that I've gotten so comfortable with.

Insanity is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result, after all.

Mine is "Out with the old, in with the new." I've had some exes come back into my life and toy with my emotions a little bit. I don't want any of that next year.

It's my opinion that many people give up on thier resolutions because they don't enjoy them. If you're going to stick with something for a year, you might as well enjoy it.

For ex., if you're going to do a lot of dating this year, you could count the calories from all the free dinners you may or may not get.
