Solving problems one solution at a time.

Also known as a conversation with myself (the relationship edition). Because I know you’re alldyingto know how my brain works.

Problem: All the single ladies, put yo’ hands up! All the single ladieswhoalsohavesomeselfesteemissuesbecauseofthis, put yo’ hands up!

Solution: Don’t date, and make that your decision.

I realized this really, really simply solution today.

First off, I hardly have time to on occasion go out with friends. How the heck am I going to have time for a boyfriend? I am an overtime college student. Up until last Friday I spent half to three quarters of my day during the week at school and the other half doing chores while my weekend was dominated by homework and work. On top of that I have to add making jewelry, doing end of the week chores, sleep and working out.

Secondly, listening to friend’s dating mishaps and such is fun and I can be helpful but again,I do not have the timeto stress out about relationship problems. I’m already stressing about money, work, school, my sister’s graduation and staying in California.

Thirdly, Ilikebeing single. Ilikebeing able to go to class in a pigtail and crappy clothes at seven in the morning because I’ll just get ready for the day when I get home that night or that morning. Ilikebeing able to talk with my friends about who’s good looking and who I want to flirt with without having to go against the morals I hold myself to for when I will eventually be in a relationship.

Finally, I don’t need a significant other to define me or complete my life. I already talk to people if I think they’re interesting, if anyone decides I’m interesting in a different way let them ask me out because right now I’m too busy and my mind is too full to worry about what people of the opposite sex think of me.
