Best Friends...

Is it human nature to want to rush in?  Is it in our nature to see/feel something that we really want and then want nothing more than to rush in and embrace it?  Throw caution to the wind.  Jump in head first without a moment's thought.  I wonder.  Because that's what I've always done.  I have historically jumped the gun and thrown all caution to the wind.  And, you know something friends and neighbors, it hasn't really worked out that well for me.  In fact, you could say that its been more or less 100% bad.  Hmm.  Think about that one.  The only time that pops into mind when I haven't gone rushing in and have actually formed a friendship first was Marcia.  We were very close friends for quite some time before we stepped it up a level.

I don't have any problem with taking things slow.  I mean, I've been single for so long that I don't feel any pressure to jump right in.  Now that's not to say that I wouldn't jump the minute the opportunity presented itself.  But I am fine developing a friendship first....
