In my early twenties I had a few Girlfriends. Not at the same time of course. I remember that the first relationship went by too fast, and I was awkward. Toward the end of the relationship, she told me that it was because of the little things that bothered her. We got engaged too quickly, and I said some things that I shouldn’t have. Me giving out too much information and moving along too awkwardly and quickly continued until my third relationship when I finally got married. I also learned that it's important to not settle in a relationship if the person in question doesn’t agree with me on fundamentals. These can include Religion, politics, habits etc. Don’t try to make it work if it's not going to work. I learned not to give in to the fear that I’ll always be lonely. I’m only as lonely as I choose to be.
