All By Myself.....

Don't wanna be, all by myself, anymooorrrre...

Cue the music.

Actually, don't. Because this is not how I feel at all! Just thought I would make you think for a second I was all 'woe is me, I need a man, blah blah blah...' You know me better, people!

It hadn't crossed my mind to address this on my blog. I didn't really think it was necessary. Until yesterday. Because if one person has these thoughts, maybe more people do too. Not that I feel I have to defend my life decisions to anyone for any reason, but I just want to lay it all out. Set it straight. Clear the record. Let you know what's really going on in my mind.

You may want to refresh your memory a little bit with this post before you continue reading.

Yesterday I was having a conversation with a friend. Somehow the conversation turned to my social life. Yes, the exciting social life that everyone who meets me wants to be a part of (insert sarcastic 'right' and roll of eyes here). No, my social life isn't quite as a exciting these days as it was when I was in college, but my priorities have changed a little since then too. As you all know, I'm currently pursuing my master's and working and coaching our middle school cheerleading squad.

Anyway, the conversation continues and turns to my relationship status (single, white female). He then tells me that he's 'worried' about me. I'm sorry, did I ask you for that?? If you haven't caught on by now, I was quite irritated. To suggest that I may not be satisfied with my life because I don't have a significant other deserves a kick in the a**, if you ask me. I then tell him this. Of course, then there comes the 'that's not how I meant it, let me explain' bit. He proceeds to tell me that he just doesn't want me to end up like him, always putting success before social life and romantic relationships.

Do you wanna know what I have to say to this?

Thanks, but no thanks for 'worrying' about me.

I just had a conversation with my parents about how happy and satisfied I am right now. For almost four years, I was tied down, and I realize now, not so happy. 

 I'm really, truly happy these days. If Mr. Chris Pine decides to walk into my life tomorrow and the heavens open and the angels sing the hallelujah chorus, then wonderful!! I won't say no. But I also won't cry if that doesn't happen.

The person God has chosen for me is going to be here. Sometime. Some day. When the time is right.

Right now, I hope he's thinking about where his girl is. But I also hope he's living his life to the fullest and loving every minute. I know I am. But when he finally comes along I know he is going to add to my happiness. And I can't wait to share every minute with him.

I hope you all are truly happy today, lovies.
