I miss DC

I was in DC earlier this week and I miss the area so much. I miss the people. DC is a city of professionals, all ages, all professions, all sexes and all races. In the middle of nowhere I am surrounded by people who are all the same; they fall into two groups married with children and young. Not just young in age but young in maturity and lifestyle. So I split my time between hanging out with the Kids incorporated and my married with children friends.

I don’t have a single (single) professional friend in my age group. I have fun with the Kids incorporated but I just don’t have that much in common with them. I have fun with MWC friends too but their lives and lifestyles are dominated by their families (as it should be). I was in DC and talked with so many people who are just like me, professionals, single but have lived a bit of life and learned from life’s experiences. It might be time for me to return to a bigger city. I do love my job and at times I like how simple my life is out here but it is also incredibly lonely. What I really need is a good girlfriend that actually has time for me in their life and is physically close.
