It’s no big secret that I’m single. I’ve been single for around 8 months now. I think I broke up with my ex around December of 2010. Don’t really remember the date and all the other details, it was a painful experience. I had to end a relationship that just had no future and that was just plain abusive. Emotionally, of course.
For the past few months, I had difficulty adjusting being single. I was in a relationship for 3 years, it was going to be 4 years. Thank goodness I woke up and saw how bad things were. I just didn’t want to think or talk about my failed relationship. Just felt too painful and I just couldn’t face it. But it got better everyday. However during my time of healing, I have to admit I became extremely desperate. I went on dates searching for a guy to fill in the void. Of course I didn’t find anyone. Some where nice but some were total jerks.
After the chaotic part of my life, I started to realise that I didn’t need a guy to be there to help me stand. Don’t get me wrong if an interesting guy came around, I still would consider a relationship but I’d be more weary of this and I wouldn’t just jump into one.
Right now, I feel a sense of peace. I just woke up one day and all those emotions just felt like they were gone. No more pain, random thoughts of him that would make me stop what I was doing. No more feeling of desperation of needing a man by my side or at least knowing I’m in a relationship. Just feels more free and happier. My friends have noticed my glow is back, I just think I have my confidence and self respect back. Maybe it’s my new hair, the recent good news I received but for whatever reason it is. I’m thankful to God, and I can finally say I’m official over it. I’ve official moved on. Sure the scares will always be there but I’ll just remember the happier times. It wasn’t all that bad, he just didnt love me enough and I’ve learned to accept that..
Time to wait for the next best thing to happen…
