I have a lot of rules. I also get a lot of shit for having them. My “always have an escape route” rule is usually a fan favorite. You’d think my “no sex on holidays” rule would be much more laughable, but apparently not. Personally, I think having an escape route is pretty damn practical.
Escape routes. Whether it be knowing the back exit from the bathroom, having a call from a friend (or fake friend) lined up or not inviting newly met guys back to your place, you not only should have an escape route, you need one.
While I swear I’ll never break x rule again, the reality is I probably will. I also like pushing myself out of comfort zones and old habits. But, this time I pushed too far. Not only did I push too far, but not having an escape route was neither smart nor safe. So, laugh at me all you want. An escape route is definitely one rule I’m keeping for a LONG time. It’s a comfort zone I’d rather stay in.
