I’ll try to keep this to the point although I have a lot to say.

At the time I write this, it’s February. Since last June, I’ve grown used to constantly having a guy on my arm. These are typically flings that never actually become official relationships, and they never last more than a month or two. The problem is that I become so dependent upon and emotionally attached to these guys. As soon as something ends with one, I find a new one and the cycle repeats itself.

I got dumped /again/ last night and have been so hurt, even though we weren’t even together that long, or even “together.” I’ve decided that I need to be single for a while, and that I need to make peace with being single to allow myself to grow.

I’m considering taking a break from social media during this period, as well as practicing mindfulness and self-care (for me, self-care includes putting my time and energy into my job & education instead of f-boys).

Does anybody have any advice for me as to how I can grow over this time and make peace with independence? Anything is appreciated. 💕
