I'm getting old....

I fell sick this week... which is rather rare for me... worse still.. I took 2 days to recover.. which is almost unprecedented. It was a simple flu but I wasn't as resistant as before.

Perhaps this is a sign I'm getting old. This year I'll be 27. I know some men who became fathers at this age. It's a scary thought but this recent illness proves that I have lost the aura of invicibility that came with youth.

Another thing I've seem to lost is my interest in women. Before your thoughts run wild, I am still attracted to girls. But the idea of being with someone for the rest of my life no longer appeals to me as much as when I was young. Maybe it's because I already had a relationship and the whole novility is gone. I won't say I've been frightened off by a bad relationship because it wasn't. Sure it didn't work out but these things happen. I won't say I lost faith in love.

Maybe it's because my priorities have changed since my traumatic life changing event (refer to blog posted some time ago). Maybe I am just not ready to be in a relationship when it takes away my time and energy from other equally if not more important people.

Or maybe it's all of the above plus the fact that I just haven't met the right girl. All the things I've mentioned have raised the bar on what would get me interested. But maybe there still exists a girl who could convince me to take that leap of faith.

Perhaps the question I really should be asking is: could that girl actually be standing right in front of me but I'm thinking too much to notice her?

On that note, I better end my blog. haha
