Feeling pretty good for the first time in a long time.

Accepting that it is ok to be totally turned off by the idea of a relationship right now yet also being open to being approached. Good news for a change.

 

Today I am feeling pretty good for the first time in a long time regarding relationships. After a spring and summer of tossing breadcrumbs to an ex and having them toss back I am done with that and I feel great for it. Yeah it was someone I wrote about spending probably way too much time with in too short a period and having impacted eachother greatly.

 

Now that impact is really starting to wear off like I thought it would and it is like an elephant off the chest.

 

 

Sure I am turned off by the idea of a new relationship. I am tired of putting myself out there, eventually making myself vulnerable, then being hurt. The problem is that in order to have a good new relationship you have to let your guard down, be emotionally honest and vulnerable a little and see if they hurt you. If they don't then hurray! If they do then .... I don't want to deal with that then...

 

I have accepted that it is OK for me to not want anything relationship wise for now. I have been on LS less since I started to feel that way. I may be back to dispense some advice now an again.

Glad to hear you're out of the woods. Hey, taking a rest from it is only natural after a big heartbreaking chaotic mess. Don't put any pressure on yourself. Do go enjoy yourself with friends and just by yourself and don't just sit around idle all the time though.
