Does anyone else find themselves consumed with this search? I am busy with a job, 3 kids and all their activities but my mind stays on this subject much more than necessary.

Sometimes... I go through stages when I feel hopeless and desperate - that's usually when I am generally feeling crappy about myself and my life. Thinking that maybe I'm just not meant to ever find that person.
Then, after I wallow a little, I realize that I am a good person and I deserve good things out of life, and it becomes much less important. It's just one little part of my life, and I can either obsess about it or not, but either way that's not going to make it happen any faster.

On the plus side: if you focus on it, you will probably make quicker progress!

On the minus side: it will make you crazy. lol!

I've never been really focused on The Search, no. Then again, here I am at 56, single. Most of my relationships pretty much fell into my lap, really. Nothing wrong with focusing, if you know that's what you want!

I am not even sure or convinced that finding "the one" is what I want. If that happens, great; if not, great. Not saying that I am into flings or serial dating. If I meet the right person who will make me want to settle down, then I will. If I don't then at least I have met some interesting (double-edged sword) people along the way.
