"Baggage doesn't have to ruin or keep you from a relationship, it's how someone deals with that baggage that is the key. To think you'll find someone that doesn't have baggage is ridiculous, it's all in finding someone that can deal with that baggage constructively."


very VERY wise words.....we ALL have baggage, and if you've made it this far without any it's doubtful you'd be worth knowing anyway ;)

the hardest part about dating for me is allowing someone to get that close to me....i'm very good with the fun, easy stuff....and i really suck at the deeper stuff.....it's hard for me to let someone in on that level....and heaven forbid you DO let someone in, and the relationship doesn't work out....i think that just leaves you back-pedaling.....makes it that much tougher to let someone in the next time....


great post amy.....lots to think about
