Being Okay With Being Single
Being Okay With Being Single
My whole life I have always been in a relationship starting from the time I was 13. That was my first relationship with my high-school sweetheart and it lasted until I was 18. I was single for a hot minute then I got together with my ex fiancee for 3 years. I played the field for a little while then at 24 I met my ex husband and spent the next 24 miserable years with him. As soon as the ink was dried off the divorce papers I was back out there looking for someone else.
I then went from Mr. Unavailable to Mr. Con Artist to 3 of the same type of narcissists. Until I met the Prince, he taught me that I needed to learn my value. That I was worthy of a good man and that I brought so much to the table. He made me realize that, and he made me learn to love myself. I actually went back to therapy because I realized that I was still affected from my past relationships and I needed to get healed. I learned to love myself enough to be alone after we broke up. I wanted him to be happy. So much so, that I walked away so that he could find his forever person and have that family that he wanted. Talk about learning selflessness.
I took a year off of dating. I was hurt and broken and I didn't want to cover that pain by jumping into bed with someone new. I needed to find myself, and I needed to do that alone. What I've learned in these last 6 years is that I actually like to be alone. That I am okay being by myself. I have a full life. I have my girls, my church and church family. I have good friends, my business, great clients and things that I enjoy doing.
I don't need a man in my bed just to say I have one. I'd rather have no man than a bad man. I no longer have time for nonsense. I don't have the time or the energy to raise a man or to try to teach him how to treat me or be a good man. I like my space, I like doing what I want, when I want to. I no longer need a man to complete me, I am complete on my own.
So today my friends, especially the younger ones out here that have yet to learn that it is okay to be by yourself. Not having to put up with shit is priceless. Just because you have a man doesn't mean you have a good one. It's okay to be alone, the most growth happens when you're alone.
Don't settle, ever. Know your worth or take the time to find your worth. Just know that it's okay to be single and remember that only you can be the change you want to see.
