I unfortunately have to admit I am addicted to the Bachelorette. I have not been hooked on this show for many years. Due to the last season of the Bachelor, the man with the plan was a farmer from Iowa. Being a farmer's daughter myself and from Wisconsin I wanted to see what it would all entail for this person and if he would find love. I loved his sincere desire to want love in his life and it helped me find and secure peace within myself for wanting the same thing.
Mr. Iowa Bachelor found his bride and they are off living their lives. On the Bachelorette two women from the previous season was chosen for the current season of this show. In the first episode the men were able to pick who they wanted to pursue. It was between Kaitlyn and Britt. I had my hopes set on Kaitlyn who was the one who was picked. Onward we went into the next season and I was on the couch every Monday wondering what would happen next.
I don't normally get caught up in such television shows and usually avoid the reality tv shows. Yet, I think because I am in the place in my life where I want to share it with someone it has my attention. Part of me feels reassured that I am not the only one out there wanting to find love and to have someone in my life, a part of my routine, part of my day. It took me a long time for me to be at peace with myself for wanting such a thing in my life. I was amazed at others, especially men, who spoke openly about it. I was never that person who would allow myself to be fully open to it. Then I would, and eventually find myself in a relationship and then that relationship would end. I would get hurt, heal, pick myself up and move onward, take another chance, repeat.
Now, I am looking for someone to spend my life with, that person who will compliment me. Someone who wants to pursue the same things in life, and yet has their own interest. While I don't have 25 men to choose from or a rose ceremony to help me narrow things down, my heart is open to the opportunity of what is to come ahead.
