I started dating when I was 19. I wasn't good at making friends and so instead of trying to meet guys the "normal" way I started answering personal ads in the news paper. It's weird that we have come so far with the internet that both newspapers and personal ads are antiquated.

Anyway, I talked with a guy name Barry who lived in another state. I actually forgot about him until just right now. I was going to start with someone else. Wow, Barry. He seemed like a nice guy. He had a son and was raising him on his own. Can't remember why though.

I also can't remember why we stopped talking. I probably got bored and just stopped sending him letters. See I told you I was going to be honest. I hope I didn't hurt him. I also hope that he's doing well. I am sure a lot has happened for him and his son in the past 13-14 years.

I remember that he sent me a picture of him and his son opening presents on Christmas in front of the tree. I think there were some other pictures. I don't remember a whole lot about this one so this might seem a little boring. Sorry, I just want to try and be as close to the true Chronological order of things as possible. Trust me, you will like the next one better.

Erin-

My name is Erin, I am in my mid 30s's and I have tried everything to find love and it's been an interesting ride. I believe I have finally found the person I am meant to be with. Someone kind and full of passion. Relationships take work so I guess we shall see in the long run what happens.

I am creating this blog because I really wanted to share some of my stories with you. Heartache, happiness and crazy times. I started dating when I was 19 and the journey will start there. I want this to not only entertain you but perhaps you can learn from my mistakes and grow because of it. I hope I have grown.

I come from a large family and I am the only one who isn't married with children. I can't speak for the others but I have had a strong desire to have a family and settle down. I want to say more then anyone else in my family but like I said, I can't speak for them.

Our parents have been married for over 50 years. I know from observation that it has not been easy. It takes work. I like to think that I am strong enough to take on the task. As you will discover later on in this blog, I was actually married once, for a short time.

People give Kim Kardashian a hard time over her's. Well, I beat her. Let's just say that. In fact, I don't like her at all, but that was the one thing I felt like I could understand where she was coming from. I had been there.

Feeling sorry for Kim K. is a little weird I guess. Specially when I don't like her at all, but I could see how she was honestly married to the wrong person and it didn't take her long to figure it out. I had been there also. Your going to love reading about that later on.


I hope you love everything in my blog cause I am bearing it all. I am an open book and will not leave anything out. What would be the point if I hid things? feel free to leave messages along the way. I would love to know what you think. Just keep in mind that I am human and have made mistakes. I won't judge you, so please don't just me.

Erin
