Topic: When you just want the sausage.... | |

What about you? Do you want the pig or the sausage?
I would rather just take it one date at a time rather than preplan how a relationship is going to live up to my fears. |

What about you? Do you want the pig or the sausage? I would rather just take it one date at a time rather than preplan how a relationship is going to live up to my fears. I haven't yet found the pig that makes me want to forego the sausage. Doesn't help that I'm choosy about the type of meat in the brand of sausage that I go for - needs to be quality sausage |

An acquaintance in work has this saying. It goes 'why settle for the pig when you can have the sausage'? What she means by this is that while she wants someone in her life, she just can't see herself living with someone again and (worse case scenario) turning into someone who picks up his socks, puts the toilet seat down after him and makes his dinners. To a certain extent, I agree. In the here and now, despite wanting a relationship, for various reasons, I can't see myself living with someone again and turning into a reincarnation of a 21st century Stepford wife - and I know relationships don't have to be that way but I am of a certain age and a nurturer so for me, I do have Stepford wife tendencies.... Which is why I can see myself in a committed relationship but living in separate households. What about you? Do you want the pig or the sausage? I want the kind of sausage that makes the pig worth owning....... |
