I've spent the majority of my life loving someone or another whom either didn't love me back or didn't love me enough. So now I'm taking time to invest my precious time on someone that I should have been taking care of all along.....ME!!!! So you would imagine my shock when a doctor, not a psychiatrist or psychologist told me last week that I needed to start dating again. I mean usually I'm told things like "take time for yourself" or "accomplish your goals before jumping into something", but nope, she told me to start dating. It probably had to do with my stress level. She said she wasn't suggesting it for the sex, but more so for compianship and going out.
After having some time to think about it, I'm now asking myself if she is right. I'm finally at a place in my life where I'm happy with myself...at the choices that I'm making and it has nothing to do with a man. I'm focused on my priorities and for once, they do not include a man....Yes, it gets lonely at times and yes, the routine of the day to day life bores me to tears sometimes, but in my mind, I know its temporary!
So if she were to tell me this today, I'd probably tell her...if it happens, great, if it doesn't....I'm GOOD!
