    Idk maybe I’m codependent or to motivated towards change? 😆 🤔

    Ok. Well I've been on 3 vacations since April & I'm getting ready for my next one. I've had so much fun meeting new people & experiencing new things. I've really come outta my shell. To the point where my friends are surprised. 😂 As soon as the summer is over, I'll go back to my normal, hibernating self tho. 🤷🏾‍♀️

    How has ur summer been?

    I think you have to be able to be happy alone with yourself before you can be happy with someone else 🤷‍♀️

    According to some guy from this website it’s because I’m a pudgy nerd who can’t fight.

    Is the guy who said that a perfect specimen? Does he have tons of women lining up at his front door? I bet not.
    You're a good person and you'll find what you've been looking for when the time is right. 💙

    Agree 100% :)

    2,3,4. I do have trust issues (from past relationships and things I went through in the Middle East for 2 yrs when I was deployed) because some of my insecurities are tossed back in my face like being sober for 9 yrs has been one thrown back at me, not too keen on how I look. I have tried to open up in the past and that was also thrown in my face, so I work on me, and make sure all my kids have what they need and that I am there for them. Sorry if I am long winded about answering this.

    What's wrong with being single? I've been for years.

    If you've tried both, and you prefer one or the other, I think that's a perfectly valid statement.

    My issue is, I've only ever been single. I don't have anything to compare it too.

    Hmmm. Compare suffocation to breathing fresh air. Do you need to be smothered with a pillow to know that you like breathing?

    I thought a relationship was like dating your best friend? Where both people are equal.

    I can’t even bring myself to say anything cheeky or sarcastic to this. It’s just so sweet and hopeful....
    So the answer is - yes, ideally that’s the way relationships should be 🤗

    Some people get off on oxygen deprivation. Just saying.

    I’d try not to let other peoples’ experiences shape your reality.....although you said you’ve always been single.

    Its more that I try to learn from other people's failures and successes. ofc, not everyone's experience will be like mine. And ofc, I will make different mistakes then others. But the more knowledge I have going into something, then better off I think I'll be. If nothing else, having plans in place help me to feel more relaxed (and maybe a tiny bit more confident).
