On what would have been my 21st wedding anniversary, I reflect on love and marriage and my journey to self love. Having been divorced for ten years, I have had much to learn about romantic love and what I want for my life in the blessing of my years ahead.
I was asked this week by a colleague why it is that I am still single. Having just run the London marathon and looking and feeling the best that I have in a very long time, her observation was that I am feisty and strong and perhaps that scares men off. True? Maybe, maybe not.
I am a huge fan of ‘sex and the city’ and Carrie ends the series by getting her Mr.Big. She says that the most exciting, significant and challenging relationship you can have, is the one with yourself. And if you can find someone who loves the you you love, well that’s just fabulous.
I do believe in love and romance and I am excited about falling in love again. What is challenging in this day and age is ways in which to meet single and available men. Should a woman be ‘the hunter’ as opposed to ‘the hunted?’ A challenging question indeed.
I like chivalry. I like to have a door opened for me, to be wined and dined and to be spoilt. I want to be asked on a date. I am old fashioned that way.
So here begins a new chapter in my life. I have faith that the right introductions will happen when they are meant to and that the Ros that is perfectly me, will have her Prince who will love her for all that she is.
