I, Shaela, would ask for all of my family's burdens to my burdens so that they maybe happy. I am the lonely one. The one who is always unattached.

Since Robert and I broke up I haven't had a real boyfriend.  Of course
there have been the ones I can't take home sort of male friends and the 
 ones I can take home but I am so fearful of my family attaching 
themselves again.  I just can't go through another break up then 
everyone asking me where that person is and I have no idea.  In fact, I 
didn't even want to think about him because there is so much pain. 

So, I keep my male friends to myself, atleast most of them.  Some of
them my sister would know about.   Most of them she would not.  I am a 
private kind of person.  I can't believe I am telling this story which 
is absolutely unequivocally true.  Or atleast the truth as I see it. 

Chapter 3 

"Shaela, are you going to the Thanksgiving Party at Pharaoh's?" says
Shana, my hairdresser, while cranking me up in the shop chair. 

"I haven't really given it much thought," I say, "besides I don't have
anything to wear." 

"Girl, please," she knows me too well, "as much as you shop I know you
are lying. You are the ultimate shopper girl.  I'll be at your house at 
9:30 so be ready.  Nita's going too." Nita is my manicurist. 

"Whatever,"  I say fully intended on not going. "What are you going to
wear?" 

"I just got this black velvet pantsuit and Nita is wearing something
tight and sexy," she says. 

"I may have something, maybe a miniskirt.  I just decided.  I'm going." 
What could it hurt? 

I never go out thinking I may meet that next great love.  I am, however,
prepared for such a meeting. I see it like this: true love maybe hard 
to find but I am not looking for it so maybe that'll make it a little 
easier for it to find me.  As always, my fingers are crossed. On both 
hands! 

More chapters coming soon. Feedback always appreciated whether good or
not so good:)
