On a blind date with Covid-19

Hello! My name is Milica and I’m 22 years old girl coming from Serbia. Some time ago, I’ve decided that I’ll try going to the ” half-blind date.” That seemed like something new I could really try at this age. I have planned to spend some nice time in one beautiful, neighborhood country-Romania. Our initial date was in the summer and I kinda felt in love with what I have seen. But how it usually goes, there comes the time to say goodbye and I couldn’t know more than just a shallow I’ve been presented to. How I’ve been very devoted to making the tangle of the story a bit more delightful and wide, my final decision was going back to persuade this place that I’m really for it. I made the first step boldly and sure that this time it will work. But again, how it usually goes, there is some ”but” waiting for you on the next corner. My ”but” was deceit I’ve been now part of. The partner I was supposed to go for a date to, turn out being someone I have never even met before. I suppose that’s the beauty of the blind dates in general. You can never know. So, this time, I ended up being with a haughty and conceited partner, named Covid-19.
After several monitions given in order to push me away, eventually and sudden, I was in 14-days quarantine.
Someone would say, this date was really another dimension of disaster, but not me. I’m not the person who would give up on something so fast. That suspense was in one hand making me rethink my visit, but on the other made me rethink my staying in Serbia. While dealing with something unique and not often seemed, I have decided to share a few things you can learn even from the bad partners and dates.

1. Be aware of your value and add some in the process.

2. Even if the main dish is not what you have expected to be, there is always a dessert.

3. There is always a place and time for learning new things even if the factors at first are looking just like limitations.

While integrating the fact that we can all make some wrong decisions, I’ve realized there is nothing as wrong or right, there is just you making a relation firstly with yourself and using every moment offered.
