All In

Rafi is still around. Actually, since the last post, he has been very good about seeing me and paying attention. I was over at Rafi's twice last week, and even stayed over on Saturday night (so I could drive him to the airport on Sunday). I am not sure that things are really going to go anywhere notable, in fact I think that Rafi is much more religious than I am which will be the end of us. I want to be with someone who has a strong Jewish identity, but someone who is so religious that they cannot be social with non-Jews is not what I want. People are my passion. Anything that seriously impedes that is out of the question. I have been playing around with the idea of going back onto the Internet dating site again. There may be a lot of random people on there, but it's the same way out in the real world. At least this way I can select the ones I am interested in without having to do it face to face. This time, however, I will wait until I am really prepared (and Rafi is fully out of the picture). He is in his mid 30s, but I am still young. There is no real fear that I will turn up an old maid. In fact, I think that my biggest fear is that I will settle for the wrong guy, and much later on I will realize it. As long as that doesn't happen I will be content. All of my classmates from elementary school have seemed to find me on facebook. Lots of them are married. 26 is the age to tie the knot, apparently. I guess I didn't get the memo. Considering that I am just starting to get the business running there is a lot left for me to achieve before I can really say what type of person I will be. Somewhere around 35 I will start to worry about my biological clock. Worse comes to worse I figure I will get a turkey baster and a donation from the local sperm bank.
