Day Two - Justin
I talked to Justin today. It was sad. I feel sad, and empty. Like something is missing. Is it him, or the space that seems to always be there. Haunting me. Asking me to fill it. People come and go to fill it, so do hobbies, sometimes work. But I want love. I want someone I can get excited about. Justin wasn't him, but I wanted him to be so bad. I liked being loved. I liked being cared for. I liked how attentive and caring and kind and nice he was to me. But I need to know that that exists in other people. It is more common than I might think. It is out there, and I will find him. He will find me. I just hope I'm right. I deserve to be loved. I deserve to find someone that is kind, and loving, and sweet, and funny, and that I am attracted to. I will find it. Or it will find me. Stay hopeful. Change your story. I am enough. It will happen. And until then, no-one died being single. Embrace it. Enjoy it. Enjoy it like you did before. Freedom, routine, say he's more. Go out more. Be social. I worry that Justin is what made me so happy. I worry that I will be sad and depressed alone. But, maybe I don't have to be. When I had friends and family and the team I was ok. I just need to get there again. I miss the idea of someone. So hopefully this is the year I meet him. Nothing is wrong with me, I just don't want to settle, that's all. That is a good thing. Sure, I have my issues with commitment and control and fear, but we all do. It won't get in the way with the right person. So, for now let's sit with this. You are hurt. That is ok. Hurt that you hurt him. Hurt that you are lonely again. Sad that he wasn't the one. Sad that you don't have someone to talk to every night, laugh with, make me feel connected and loved. We will get there again. Be positive. Be hopeful. Be strong. You can't skip day two.
I'm grateful for...
