It's been a minute...

So let's see what has happened since my last "my life" update.

Very recently for the first time in over a year, I am in a "I want to be in a relationship" mood. I haven't felt like this since 2006, and I was in one then lol It's weird, the more I think of how much I'm going to have slow down my social life when grad school starts in a month, and I really just want to spend the little free time I will have, with someone I romantically love. Weird isn't it, that last sentence coming out of my mouth (fingers) lol Don't worry I'm still a believer in you're single until you're married, but I do want a special someone, and not the "pretty nice" men I've been spending time with, although I'm not exactly ready to let that all go either lolololol Now for HTO of course, anyone else... ummm yea I haven't met them yet! lol

Speaking of guys so tell me why one of the more "seasoned" guys I date bought a boat. But being who he is, he didn't just buy any old boat he bought a 6 person can sleep below, 15 people on deck at a time boat. I'm like dude why not just get a yacht? lol Clearly you're trying to ball....I really don't get the whole boat thing. If I have enough money to spend on a boat like that, why not just join net jets? Then you can experience the water in other countries. Why don't people think of that???

So my ex...smh.....well not the crazy always on his period one, but the athlete one....things had been going so well for him. He was getting back in his Word, leading a healthy lifestyle, had a new team that I'd LOVE to visit their team city VERY interested in him, and then what happens he tears his quad...smh. I felt so bad for him, but yet I still hoped he'd take it as an opportunity to grow spiritually. I talked to him a week later, and he'd turned to alcohol. Broke my heart, and pissed me off at the same time. After a VERY stern talking to by me he got his act together. It's good sometimes to know a person almost inside and out, so that when it's time to get real with them, you know exactly what to say and what buttons to push to get the point thoroughly across.

I got to see the majority of my closest ladies in June. I went out to NYC for our boy's surprise birthday party, and we got to live it up! We partied, shopped, and slept! lol Good times! :-)
I also got to hang with the BFF when she came to town for the 4th of July, we ate, partied, and shopped... hmmm, seems to be a theme for us lol

My summer class will be over at the end of July, so August will be my last time having fun non stop until break in November, a trip here I come! So what do you all think, Cabo/Nuevo Vallarta/Belize for the November/December getaway? Pick one! :-)

'Til next, Love Ya!

I could sense that you have been starting to feel the "itch" but I didnt want to believe it because it seems so unlike you.

Funny thing is that I havent decided if it's better to sit and wait for the right person to fall into your lap or just getting out there actively socializing and dating.... if you wait for lightning to strike you might watch too much of your life pass you by. On the other hand, if you go actively looking you may find the wrong thing. hmmmm, decisions decisions.

That's so sad about your ex :-( I've struggled with depression on and off for 10 years, I know he is struggling particularly when he just watched a large portion of his life crumble before his eyes. Question, what is he going to do now that he can't play?


About vacay, that sounds awesome. I've heard so many wonderful things about Cabo & Belize! On top of that, it will be perfect timing to get away right before coldass Chicago winter weather

1st things 1st... I say Cabo! Simply because I was thinking about taking a trip to that area, myself. Belize sounds fab, as well.

2nd... I'm glad you have the "want to be in a relationship" mood hitting you. At least I know it wasn't "single for life" mode, now. Plus... I think it's healthy to know the difference and not just jump into relationships because everyone around you is in one or out of desperation. I think you've been weeding out the "non-potentials" all along. (Just cause I know you). But... I'm anxious for you to be in a relationship, anyway. Cause I'm ready to have my lil' sis snatched up by a WINNER! And me, too!

As for boat guy... well to each his own. I'm not a boater, and seeing as how I've never even heard of net jets, I have no reason to be talking about this cat; even though I do know who you're taking about.

As for "Athlete"... I'm glad you got on him about it. Too many times people tell people what they want to hear vs. need to hear in order to maintain friendships. A real friend will tell it like it is, tactfully of course. Some people can't take the truth & will cut you off for it. But those who can appreciate you for it, are a testament to great friendships. I KNOW he thinks you're great... and I'm glad you're in his life. Kudos.

Glad you had a great time w/ the girls and BFF.

PS. You have one more time to forget your comment & downsize it. That is NOT acceptable. =o) (And I'm talking in my stern voice, too!) lol!
