What is my goal?

My friend Amy reminded me of what my ultimate goal is today. That I want to be comfortable enough with myself that I am able to date and eventually get married. I've been loosing weight due to my lack of self esteem in the key ingredient that defines romantic relationship vs. friendship, sex. About 90% of my overeating is due to loneliness and it happens at night on the couch (when I'm snuggled up with Lorne, who I love but isn't the same as a person) when I'm all alone and I know that everyone is at home with their own family. I truly believe that I would eat less if I was more social. So Amy asked me to set a different goal to try and combat my weight in a different way. She says I should have at least one date before the end of this year. Just the idea of this is terrifying. So, I'm going to start with a smaller goal. Kim and Danielle go to swing dance on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I'm going to start going. Meet new people. Have some fun. Interact with people I don't know (I'll have to as neither Kim nor Danielle are gentlemen).
