Owning your power can be a scary process, because oftentimes we don't understand just how powerful we are. "Enough is enough," I told myself one day. I had to teach myself that no matter what, I must refuse relationships that are no longer beneficial to my spiritual well being – even if it means excluding family... Continue Reading →
Rejected & Ghosted – But He Came Back
Almost every single guy I’ve dated has come back to me at some point, even if it’s 20 years later. I’m going to be writing this in segments, because it’s ongoing. But first, I feel I should do a little recap and start from the beginning… About a year ago, I was introduced to someone... Continue Reading →
Bye-Bye, You Big Baby
People have lost their damn minds over this coronavirus quarantine. I see nothing but people arguing over things and just being outright stupid. It’s gotten to the point that I’ve started blocking anyone that “yells” at me or says anything negative online. I see friendships going south due to all of this madness. I see... Continue Reading →
You’re Not Invited, So Mind Your Own Damn Business
Something I do is mind my own business, because that’s how I like to be treated. People have a habit of telling me their issues, but other than that, I don’t really care what others do as long as it doesn’t affect me. Living in a small town, people know your business - or think... Continue Reading →
Bye-Bye High-Five Guy
The other day I posted about saying bye-bye to people pleasing. Of course, as soon as that happens, the universe throws me a test. I received a text from a male acquaintance asking me to go out for drinks or food. I told him I wasn’t going out, so he offered to bring me food.... Continue Reading →
Saying Bye-Bye to People Pleasing
I was reading a young woman’s blog post about her being a people pleaser, and it’s something that came up as a topic in one of my counseling sessions last year. I believe the discussion had to do with staying in relationships longer than I should, because I didn’t want to hurt the other person.... Continue Reading →
Eye in the Sky – A Sign from the Universe?
This morning I awoke from a dream, and the only thing I can remember is it had to do with the band The Alan Parsons Project. Having no idea why I would dream about a band that I vaguely know, the first song that popped into my head was their 80s hit “Eye in the... Continue Reading →
Blocked Again
Some days can just kiss my ass, and Monday was one of them. Monday turned out to be one of those days in which I couldn’t wait to go back to sleep, because I did not want to face reality. Going to sleep super early the night before and waking up in the middle of... Continue Reading →
Getting Rejected by Male Friends
There’s a reason why heterosexual men and women cannot just be friends: sex. Even when sex is not involved, once the man realizes he’s not going to get anywhere with the woman sexually, he either ditches the friendship or remains very distant. I met someone last summer that was a very good friend to me.... Continue Reading →
Friendships Based on Trust
To me, time spent with someone is something you can never get back, so I don’t like to waste it on people that ultimately don’t care about me. I do not take friendships or any type of relationship lightly. If I’m going to call someone a friend, then it means they’re special enough for me... Continue Reading →
