I hate this day. I really really do. And I know there are other things in life that could be worse. And I’m young single and still have hope. But still. Valentines Day sucks!!!!!!!!! I hate it I hate it I hate it. And social media just makes it worse. Can you imagine a day when girls didnt have FB or instagram to show off the flowers they receive? Whatever did they do?!?! Yes I’m bitter…yes when I have a bf and he sends me flowers I will post pics of them on social media…but as of now all I can do is hate on others. Cause I am a big ball of jealousy. Jealousy does not look good on me.
To make matters worse this morning I was browsing thru my instagram and both of the guys I used to date uploaded COLLAGES of them and their new girlfriends. It was only 10am. And this was GUYS doing this. What has the world come to? It felt like daggers to my heart. All I wanted to do was crawl up in a big ball and cry. My friend calls me an online cutter. And she’s probably right. Why torture myself like this?? So I did the best thing I could do and I unfollowed both of them on instagram and I promise to never look back! I know…hold your applause. Youre SO proud of me.
I refuse to look at any social media for the rest of the day. It’s a yucky world out there today. It’s overwhelming and does nothing but make me feel sad alone depressed and single. F*ck Valentines Day.

Sometimes love can be a hectic journey. But it’s the journey that creates love.
I heard this quote from Sean Lowe on last night’s episode of The Bachelor. (Yes I’m quoting The Bachelor) But I just loved this quote so much. Love IS a hectic journey. Sometimes our paths take longer and are more difficult than others but whatever our path to happiness may be, we all hope to find love at the end of it.

Sometimes I worry about myself. I don’t think it can be emotionally good for a person to be single for as long as I have. There’s gotta be some long term damage that’s happening to me subconsciously that I don’t totally realize yet.
How can I be surrounded by so many people that love me, yet not one guy on earth finds me loveable? I’m not saying this to be depressing or feel sorry for myself… honestly…I’m just saying this because I worry for myself. I worry that I will never find what I’m looking for and I’m going to somehow be emotionally f*cked up. Can a person be this alone and independent for this long and still come out okay?
I’m losing myself. It’s a daily battle of caring too much then forcing myself to be grateful and happy and not care at all.

Me: It’s okay. We’ll probably have children at the same time and they can go to school together. They’ll go to Santa Monica elementary school. We can drop them off in our Range Rovers before we go to mommy breakfast and mani pedis.
Bestie: and then some afternoon shopping in Beverly Hills
Me: right.
Bestie: Then the nanny will pick them up and take them to a play date.
Me: And we’ll hit up a yoga class.
Bestie: And we’ll make good family dinners by the time everyone is home.
Me: Exactly. For our rich hot husbands, when they get home at like 6.
Bestie: Yup, they’ll come home with flowers and spend time with the kids while we’re finishing up dinner. Then they’ll do the dishes…we’ll put the kids to bed and then it’s cuddle time with wine on the couch.
Me: And that’s our lives.
Bestie: We should also look into volunteering once a week and maybe be a part of a Junior League or something.
Me: Oh of course!

So it’s been a month now that the boy I was dating left me and moved across the country. And it would be easy for the single girl in me to be like “oh it was so tragic! Worst month of my life! I was SO depressed!”
But guess whaaaaaat. That isn’t the case at all! I never really thought it would be but you know, when you’re single, and you have any moment of something real, feelings can be more escalated than necessary. But luckily I got through the first month and only had 2 mini breakdowns over it.
Him and I still talk almost every day…but I don’t feel butterflies fly through my stomach when I hear from him or anything. And that of course that is because he is ALL the way in NY and I will never see him again. Well maybe..but not in the way that will ever affect my future. There are moments where I’ll be driving and out of nowhere I’ll catch myself thinking of him, and this pit forms in my stomach because I do miss him. But I have to remind myself to just smile at those memories and move on.

your chatting with your bestie about the guy she’s been on two super awesome dates with. And a light bulb goes off in your head and you think “Wait! I also met a guy online named James that I went on a date with a few months back.”
And you compare phone numbers and yup…turns out she’s going on dates with the SAME guy you went on a date with!! I mean…it’s not like Los Angeles is that small. How can that even happen? Funniest situation ever! Luckily it wasnt at the same time or anything and we’re both totally fine with it.

I’m currently browsing books at Barnes N Noble and stumbled across the “Love and Sex” section. One of the books there is titled “Her Guide to Going Down On Him”
If a single gal just stood in that section, reading that book, do you think she’d score a date? 😉
