I've got lots of friends and most of my coworkers are married, so I agree with you that it's just a tough situation. One teacher at my school met her fiancee on the internet, so I tried it out. I ended up meeting a guy who lived in the same state, but about 10 hours away (Texas is huge). We "dated" for about three months but it didn't work out. Now I'm back to square one. I'm a great catch (not to brag, but you know), and it's not like I haven't had guys as me out, but I'm really picky about who I want to spend the rest of my life with. It sucks. I know this isn't much consolation, but at least you know there are other single girls out here! :)MandyGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06492989603174416059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527406.post-1116326743905487182005-05-17T05:45:00.000-05:002005-05-17T05:45:00.000-05:00Hey Dree, Well my dear rest assure I for one is st...Hey Dree,<BR/> Well my dear rest assure I for one is still single. You know when i was 27 I thought I would be married with kids, but I suppose it doest happen the way we plan it. I still believe theres someone out there for somebody. Anyways, still enjoy reading your blog.

I’ve been reading your blog for the past few ...Hi. I’ve been reading your blog for the past few weeks and it’s really interesting and informative (from my point-of-view as a perspective teacher). I’m doing a project for my educational psychology class and was wondering if I could ask you a few questions via e-mail, but I don’t see an e-mail address on your blog. I was wondering if you could e-mail me, or somehow let me know your e-mail address, so that I could give you a little information about my project. Then, if you want to answer some questions for me, you could. Thanks so much!

Except she wasn't a teacher. I agree it's hard to meet people being an elementary school teacher. Not that everyone meets people at work, but you meet people who can introduce you to people....etc. In a school it seems like it's mostly people who are settled and married with kids and it's not really conducive to meeting anyone. It's tough. My teammate really did meet someone on match.com though! Ha!Pigshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10808308057095231750noreply@blogger.com
