Sucka.

It has been my hope to move to Stellenbosch for quite some time.  However, after spending the last week or two driving to and from Cape Town like a woman posessed I am reconsidering.

For the first time in a long time maybe moving back to town sounds plausable: it will be great to be surrounded by friends.  One of the best phases of my life was when I was staying in a block of flats where one of my best friends was also resident.  We both had our own flats but were close enough to drop in for a sundowner and far enough away to not feel cramped.  What a great set-up!  In reality this is probably what I desire with a future mate.  After having lived with four different men in my life it has become abundantly clear to me that I have about a year and a half of co-habitating before it all goes to shit.  The year and a half can be divided into 3 distinct parts:

Part 1:  Love.  Nesting.  Happiness.
Part 2:  Comfort zone.  Feeling stuck.  Frustration.
Part 3:  Figuring out how to split.  Splitting.  Moving.

Arrrgh.  I don't think I could do it again.  But then that's what I said last time... 

I wish I wasn't such a sucker for love.

"And what does it live on?"
"Weak tea with cream in it."
A new difficulty came into Alice's head,
"Supposing it couldn't find any?" she suggested.
"Then it would die, ofcourse."
"But that must happen very often," Alice remarked thoughtfully.
"It always happens," said the Gnat.
