I flipped my friend the bird last night.

That’s right, my Christian friends, I am human.

Let me put it into context: I had a friend over for coffee last night. During our conversation, I made several comments about being single (no, I was NOT hitting on him by letting him know my availability. However, I may have unknowingly done this to others in that past… meh, whatever…) to explain my ignorance of all things relationship. I suppose I used the “single” word too many times. He commented sarcastically.

So, I gave him the one finger salute.

My moral compass regarding hand gestures aside, it made me wonder: am I relationally brainless?

I’ve always learned best by doing and relationships are something I haven’t had a lot of practice with. The experience I have had is limited. I suppose I am socially stunted in this regard.

Is that a bad thing?  I mean, I don’t have a ton of baggage. That’s gotta be a plus!

In all seriousness, does experience qualify us for success in future relationships?
