411 On My CyberCrush

So, I cancelled my marriage and my former husband decided to divorce me, and so, I am single again. I learned a lot from both my marriage and divorce.

I've decided, I'm never supposed to be single, even if I'm totally ok being single, I love having a lover and partner, I loved being together even if I didn't love being married. I don't think I ever need to get married again, yet I do love living with others. And, THAT, was a big thing for me to decide: do I want to just be single? My answer is no. Ok, so, my search for a lover and partner began again.

My friend Joanne told me I needed a crush on a celebrity or something first, to learn how to find a new person fascinating, exciting, even if they are just another, sigh, human. She knows me, my experience, friends, and my boredom with most people and their lives. Ok. I decided on a #CyberCrush versus Omar Sharif because my childhood crush was dead, and I don't watch much tv.

So, I picked Om Malik as my #CyberCrush, why? I don't know really, he was the first person that intrigued me. I found him on a random feed from WordPress, who had highlighted something he wrote, and poof, it was good enough writing, smart thoughts even if strange, and made me laugh.

I followed him there, and eventually on Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr, I think I even signed up for his email newsletter. I did not follow him on Facebook, cuz I didn't want to do something this silly there (even if on occasion I do check him out there because I'm bored). I love his photography and watching his growth in his new passion, and watching him do his life online. He's a smart man from what he does professionally, and he's like an internet god of sorts.

What's not to love? Oh, you can also find that online if you want. Perhaps the biggest downer of my CyberCrush is that he believes he'll never fall in love. Yes, he wrote that, and he wrote that he's ok with that. Lol, isn't that just like me to pick someone who doesn't even think they are here on earth to love like that?! I mean, I know there are monks and nuns and folks like that, is that who I selected? And then, I think, what a person to select to have a crush on, someone who would never even want to meet me because, what if he was wrong? What if love just took him over and the conclusions he wrote at one time became inaccurate? I wonder how my CyberCrush would handle that. Hmmmm
