Sorry for the long post...I'm just stuck in my little pity party right now (which I hate by the way). |
I don't know why people think you have to be a couple to be happy - I'd be estatic about owning my own home and all on your own ? that's awesome and something to be so proud of
- that's one of my dreams that's probably in my past... but I think that you are incredible doing that.
You can be in a relationship and be just as lonely as any single person out there - marriage doesn't guarantee anything ....and honestly, even being married can be lonely at times. VERY lonely because you know there are 2 of you and that makes it worse. So have your pity party
...then think of that new home and give yourself alot of kudos -
