Dating Hiatus

I finally heard back from the Latina, and to her credit she acknowledged that I had a valid point. And I was impressed by her ability to discuss differences rationally, like an adult. So I’ve sent a reply calmly and rationally explaining my side (um, it’s inconsiderate to not get back to someone about plans in a timely manner) and we’re left on a positive note ultimately. She’s busy the next few weeks so I suggested taking a break and then we’ll see what happens. I like a lot about her, just not this flaky side. She’s an intelligent woman who seems to deal with most things maturely. I figure we’ll see what happens in May when she thinks she’ll have more time. I’m not going to worry about it though. If something’s meant to come together it will, and if not then it won’t. I’m definitely taking effort out of dating for the time being. (Not that I’ve put tons in lately anyway.) I’m just kinda tired of things not working out. This is how my life has gone for the most part – a short flurry of dating that doesn’t work out followed by being fed up and taking a break. I’m glad when I can get to a place of peace with it and not feel inadequate because I’ve gotten rejected yet again. Dating is just a pain, there’s no getting around that.
