I was also very careful to get the "lay of the land" for a few weeks before clicking with anyone socially. Not always easy as I am naturally talkative!

I think it’s a matter of perspective. I see your point which is very valid. I also can think of it from my mother’s perspective - to be excited for a new leg of the journey in my life. And to view a life overhaul as something new and exciting. I can see that. I just don’t feel that way right now. I feel burdened by my recent divorce and other family issues going on. And that’s effecting my perspective.
