Almost a year and a half later and I'm back. Not sure what drove me away for so long or why I've decided to come back to this blog but I'm here now.
I'm still single, I'm still working the same job but I was blessed to find a new group of friends here in L.A. All these friends were single and they loved to do fun things like Vegas trips, movies in the park and wine tastings. Every weekend was something new and fun and I realized how it felt to feel normal and not the odd one out in a group full of couples. Now though things are changing. I must be a good luck charm because the amount of couples in our group far outweighs the singles. Gone are the Friday night hang outs with the whole group. Gone are the weekend trips. Couple activities have taken over and its an all too familiar feeling.
I felt myself slipping into the mindset I had when this happened with all my college friends. Bitterness and resentment. I can't let that happen again though. I am determined to stay positive and focus on all the amazing things I can do because I am single. I can move to a new town. I can buy expensive shoes without my husband scolding me. I can take up the whole bed at night. I have a entire closet to myself. I can not shave for weeks. I can take trips and plan things without having to check with my partner.
One day someone will come along and I'll be ecstatic. But for now I'm going to go buy myself some Cole Haan heels and a new queen mattress to have all to myself.
