Plenty more fish in the sea.

One of the best things I ever learned is that I get to choose my friends because there are plenty of fish in the sea.

I grew up in a very small town and people were limited.  So friendships were limited.

But now I live in a VERY large city with lots of suburbs, and I get to make choices.
And real friendships will come naturally. 

If I meet you, and from the start I feel like I have to walk on eggshells, then it's not right for me.  Heck, it's not even healthy.
If I meet you, and from the start I feel like I have to do all the work (like planning all the events) then it's not right for me.
If I meet you, and from the start we are like oil and water, then it's not right for me. 
Real friendships come naturally, and you'll know when it's right.
I get to choose. 

I always knew other people got to choose their friends, but it was a new revelation for me to realize *I* did as well!

I sure hope you know YOU get to choose your friends as well.
