A few weeks ago, Andrew Wilder, creator of the blog, Eating Rules, asked me to write a guest post for his annual October Unprocessed Challenge. [1] Sure, I said. Why not? Then I reviewed the guidelines for guest bloggers and gulped. It would mean signing a pledge to eat unprocessed foods for a whole month. Even though I consume mostly healthy foods, did I really want to commit. And this got me to thinking about commitment and being single and whether there’s any sort of adverse relationship. One thing about my single life is there’s a lot of freedom of choice, and I don’t like to feel hemmed in. But does that mean I have trouble taking a vow? What’s your experience?
