No more comparisons
I found myself feeling lost, not because he left me (to be honest, probably the best thing he's ever done for me) but because I was desperate to fill the hole of being in a relationship. I dated and it took me on an emotional roller-coaster, on the highs when someone showed interest and on the lows when when it didn't go anywhere. I didn't know what I was looking for, just someone. I didn't embrace being single, felt like it wasn't normal. I compared myself to people my age having children, getting engaged or getting married. Then it hit me, it's OK to be single. I'm not ready to jump back into a relationship months after a break up... even if he has. I'm now learning to be back in control of my happiness. I feel content and I'm bouncing back to feeling myself again. Being in the wrong relationship is exhausting, that's what isn't normal.
Someone once told me 'Reinvent yourself, you are amazing and deserve the best and greatest for your life. Don't let the voices (of others and in your head) keep you from having it ALL.'
So thank you, I'll wait... ❤️
