The Single, the Brave, and the Patient

Today's post is dedicated to those of you are single. We want someone that we can hold on to through the hard times. Someone to make us light up when they call. And most importantly someone to have adventures with. But eligible bachelors and bachelorettes just don't come raining out the sky so we must wait and wait and wait until the day comes when that very special one comes along. The saying is very true that we must learn to love ourselves before we can allow someone to love us. Sometimes we get so wrapped up into wanting someone that we forget to appreciate ourselves without having someone. We immediately think something must be wrong with us, my friend Lynn has a man, my friend Johnny has a girl, my friend Jen has a nice girl, my friend Brad has a nice man. Why on earth don't I have anybody? That's when you have to stop looking and let that person come to you. Also embrace any opportunity to meet new people. You never know when your special person is sitting next to you. Also try to be sociable even in the most awkward situations because coming off as closed minded or closed in gives potential dates a red flag that you might not be single and you so are. Last but not least be patient. Never give up the hope that you can be the one to live happily every after. It might not be today or tomorrow, may not even be next week but they are somewhere wondering the same thing about you. Thinking to themselves will I ever find them. Your other half is somewhere, you just gotta keep the faith that one day you two will join up in eternal happiness. But for now enjoy being single and enjoy yourself.

  1. haha Patience is a virtue as my mom would say but I hate when your friends that are in relationships are like... oh it comes when you least expect it, like it just hit you out of the blue or something like you weren't looking for a relationship... I think to an extent we're always searching till we find the one

  2. I think so too. We can never ignore the fact that we are looking even if it is for a split second
