People keep asking “how I’m doing?”
I guess w/the holidays upon us friends are worried I’m depressed over being single this year. (In case you wondering WTF? I split w/my ex of 4 years last December). My answer is simple, I’m fine. I’ve realized I don’t necessarily need someone else in my life to feel complete. I’m also not of the mindset that the holiday has to always be this picture of sappy happiness.
I am greatful, however, for my good fortunes this season. My life is more on track that it’s been in a very long time. I have goals that I’m actively pursuing. The feeling of accomplishment makes me giddy at times. So, I should wallow in self-pity because I don’t have a boyfriend?
I’ll pass, thanks.
There are many people who have no reason to be happy this year. Many more are struggling just to get food on the table. Looking at it that way really gives one a sense of perspective. If your life is in the shitter this season, it could be worse. You could have a house on your back and someone could be trying to steal your shoes.
The one thing I will say is that I am happy to hear you sounding so positive. I am sure you will have a great Christmas.
Best wishes xx
Things can always be worse. Some of the clients that come in for legal advice at work – especially this of year – make me just wonder how they manage to look so happy with Christmas. Glad to hear you’re doing so well…
Something tells me that you don’t “need” anyone to be complete. You’re strong, sexy, & real — all the makings of a complete package.
Merry Christmas.
solo is just as great as coupled. it’s nice to awake in the morn with a guy that loves you, and it’s just as okay to awake alone when you’re independant.
you have the right take on it all… a roof, and groceries, and your health rule… everything else is bonus. and remember, your next guy is just around the corner, so get ready… and enjoy the single days when you have ’em.
