I hate being lonely, especially with our grueling schedule. You get to go home to Chad and your kids and have people love on you and hold you and take care of you. You have a partnership, an ever-lasting friendship, someone to hold your hand when you’re nervous or scared, or want to be cuddled.” Taking a long pull from my straw, I swallow. “I don’t want to be single. I’ve never enjoyed it; I don’t have that type of personality in my blood. So, yes, I’ll go back. I will look for another date, and who knows, third time might be the charm.”
