Settling On A Girl

I could have settled on the girl next door, the first available option. She was sweet, but I needed to explore.

I could have settled on the party girl. She was open-minded, but I felt I needed someone more down to earth.

I could have settled on the arty girl. She was honest, but I felt I needed someone who wouldn’t turn our love into avant-garde ‘art’.

I could have settled on the career girl. She was rich, but I felt I needed someone who actually loved me.

I should have settled on the girl next door. Too late now…
