Hello to all! I just wanted to say hi first and for most because I know I have been missing for most of this pandemic and I really did want to update you guys and let you guys know what was going on, but things became to much and so much has happened, but I am here to try to update you all on what has been going on in the shortest way possible. So first thing first, I am NOT dating anyone for once. I know some of my posts have been about some boys in question and to answer plain and simple none mentioned made the cut, but we won’t go there cause I could talk all day about that. In August I learned to drive, I mean like really got to practice and build that confidence up which was great. Sadly, Covid has all the DMVs shut down so I never officially got to get a license but whatever. At the beginning of December I was in a collision with an on duty police officer, but luckily after everything was explained and me keeping my temper in check, I was let off Scott free. I got no ticket, the car wasn’t impounded and most of all we were all perfectly fine. The next week my aunt also known as the woman who raised me, was diagnosed with stage 3 liver failure which hit all of us like a stack of bricks. That news made my anxiety flare up and really had me fucked up for a few days, I was just crying off and on and really just scared of how I will handle my aunt’s death when the time comes because she’s all I have left and I fear I really will become suicidal, so I am looking into therapy to help combat the negative feelings. Also, back in November right after my birthday my best friend decided to ghost me. Legit cut me off and to this day I have no idea why and I am still learning to be okay with it, but I think what really hurt the most is that he had gotten a bond with my daughter and she still does ask about him and I honestly don’t know what to tell her anymore. I was so hurt and really that is what kind of kicked off the hiatus I took. One good thing that came out of this though was finding a strength in me that I didn’t know I had. I won’t go into EVERYTHING, but lets just say there’s so much in between that has also added to my stress. It has been a journey and the amount of growing I have done emotionally and spiritually really is amazing anf I am so proud of how far I have come, sure I still have a ways to go before I can say I’m healed, but god damn am I proud. Point is though, you guys can see why I have been so absent. I did manage to graduate though and homeschooling my kid has definitely taught me more patience, something I have ALWAYS lacked…
I think it’s safe to say as a human we are always going to be tested and pushed in life. Like a phoenix, we are expected to rise from the ashes and build ourselves up into something new and stronger. 2020 has been a horrible year for a lot of people, I won’t sit here and act like woe is me, I know there are people who are worse off and I am thankful for all the shit I have gone through because I see so much more clear now (lost those rose colored lenses and can finally see the red flags) and going into the new year I am ready to move forward and handle whatever comes next without that extra baggage that was holding me down. For the new year I really do want to be more spiritual and in tune with my inner/higher self. I have been reading a lot on the subject and even more personalized readings and all I can say is I pray that these predictions are true. It says love and money are coming my way, and I know that sounds vague and corny. I know I am not going to become a billionaire, but I am hoping I can finally get a job and start moving forward with the future I want for my life. I also hope I find a better and more solid romantic connection, I know I shouldn’t be so concerned with that but after wasting six years on a clown, I’d really like to be treated well for once, I mean I am not getting any younger. This year after my breakup I was so hurt and lost I was just sleeping around and really not respecting myself. I wanted attention, I wanted to feel wanted even if it was just for a night. I wanted someone to see me, not just see me as someone’s mom. I was feeling this void, something was lacking and I really thought it was love. I think looking back now what I was missing though was my sense of self. I lost/gave up my own individual identity to become a mom and I was starting to resent my kid for that. Luckily I have been blessed with more free time and was able to find myself again and I can say I really did miss myself. I am fuckin awesome and such a vibe, I forgot how easy people gravitated to me, unfortunately though not everyone was good. I was trying to base my happiness off of someone rather than letting them add to it. Even now as the year closes I still feel like I need to learn to let go and not attach so easy. I know once I master that I will be golden. I just never have been able to find that balance, I am either in it all the way or just a straight savage and not saying sorry for the shit I did. As a water sign/ Scorpio I feel DEEP. Sometimes I feel like I will never find someone who can match my energy and that bums me out.
I met someone online who so far has been really good, but it’s not without it’s moments as well. He is so wise, so caring under all that tough exterior, but he also carries so much pain and hate. It breaks my heart because I see his potential and believe in him so much, but I don’t think he sees it fully yet and that’s okay. I have to learn to accept that and not try to fix him like I do with all broken people. That in itself is so hard though cause the mental connection is there and though we have yet to meet face to face, we really do vibe and I feel for him deep. I won’t say I’m in love with him because I don’t know him like that, but I think if he gave me the time of day it could happen. Despite all the hurt hes experienced I still see the good and my god I wish he could see himself through my eyes. I see a cute, loving yet stern guy who really can make a difference in this world. People like him are rare to find, and most of all he’s only 20. I know he has a lot to learn still and I can’t help him with that, but it’s amazing how much he already knows. I joke around and tell him he’s always teaching me things and I’m already 27, I should have more of a clue than him right? I don’t know, it’s scary cause it does feel to good to be true and maybe it is and if that’s the case I need to be okay with that too. I know he likes me and feels me on a deep level cause one, he actually opened up to me which he didn’t do for the longest and two he actually has moments during our deep talks where he does express how he feels and says sorry for not being as expressive but he trying and that in itself means so much to and reminds me of why I stick it out. So I am proud of how far we have come, the progress we have made in these 2 months. I just hope we do get to meet at least once and if the vibe is there…sheesh. That aside though I have also cut off all my old hoes. I legit changed my number Saturday because I was tired of the drama, tired of being so accessible to all the wrong people and so on. I can’t really help but wonder if any of those hoes have tried to hit me up and felt some type of way when they didn’t get a reply…Fuck it though right? Going into the new year Jenny and I have decided to journal and make goals. Some big, so more long term and some more minor ones that are quicker to attain and I must say I am motivated already. I have not had a friend this dedicated and close to me in a minute, I also love that even though we have a semi big age gap, shes still down. Shit she’s even more down than me half the time, I think that’s why we vibe so well because she can be fun and crazy but also rational and tough when needed. I can say that meeting her has been the best part of my 2020 by far. She really has saved me from myself and if it wasn’t for her I don’t think I would have lasted this far. We have had some crazy adventures already and I am honestly so excited to see what the new year will hold for us. She text me on Christmas to tell me how much I mean to her and how she wants to visit more countries with me which made me crack up. Long story short back in September when we first really hungout, we went to San Diego for the weekend (which was a shit show) and got really high to the point where we were convinced we were in another country. We were actually in downtown SD which has a old Spanish feel and I just remember we sat in the car freaking the fuck out for an hour trying to figure out how to drive from “Spain” to our hotel by the beach. I have a video of it and if I could I would upload it so you all could laugh at the foolery. We legit were high off those edibles for like 12 hours, it really was the scariest but best moment I had had in a long time.
Okay so now I am switching gears a bit and really shifting into what I am feeling right now so bare with me because it is kind of random and doesn’t really have to much to do with what I was talking about above. So right now I was sitting here cleaning up some pictures from my picture box when my daughter said something to me I have never heard her say, she stopped what she was doing, grabbed a picture of her dad and I kissing (from 2014) and said “I miss mommy and daddy together”. Hearing this broke my heart instantly because how do you explain to your kid that her dad is a piece of trash who chose hoes over his kid and baby mama? You don’t. All I can say to her is that things don’t always work out but that doesn’t mean we love her any less, just separately. She put the picture down and got sad, which in itself made me sad and I won’t lie I shed a few tears. Sometimes in moments like these I realize I am not over my ex as much as I pretend to be. I still miss the good times we had and most of all I miss the adventures we would have as a family. Bella used to love being in the car because she knew whenever her dad picked us up it meant that we were going out and doing something new. I had to remind myself though that the man I loved and knew doesn’t exist anymore and I think in some way never really did. He always made it a point to say that he was lying to me the whole time and that he never really loved me, so who knows. I think we did share love at one point but his affection died way before mine did that’s for sure. My breaking point was when he chose to spend his birthday with his girlfriend alone rather than with us his family. I was also the side hoe so I can’t say I was really shocked either I knew better, that man has always been selfish. Bottom line, whatever we had wasn’t real and lasted way longer than it should have, our daughter is the only good thing to come from that whole mess. The pain I feel with my self esteem is a reminder of why I will never take him back. I look back at our old pictures and I don’t recognize myself, it feels like I am looking at a stranger. I see the pain in my face and the lies behind every smile…Every night before she falls asleep with me I give her a hug and kiss and pray to the universe that my situation will clear up and I can finally get a job and work towards giving her the best life I can because she deserves that much. My next random thought is this wave of angst I have been feeling all day. I won’t lie this came on after my guy left me on read. Remember how I said he carries a lot of emotional baggage? Yeah he likes me a lot but he also isn’t big on being on his phone so he’s the type who can be okay just talking once a day or so. I am not, especially in these times when you can’t see anyone, I expect to be on my phone trying to stay in touch in any way I can because I do feel so strong about this connection , I don’t want to lose it. But then I stop and think, why am I trying so hard? Nothing should ever feel forced. He’s always saying he likes to go with the flow of things and doesn’t want to force anything so why can’t I do the same? Why does him leaving me on read give me anxiety? It shouldn’t, he’s not my man and we haven’t even met yet. It sent me into this thought that maybe I should distance myself and back off from everyone and if he wants me he will make an effort and try. I was thinking of deleting my snapchat and instagram for good and just living my life in private. However, we are in pandemic and the internet does help cure boredom sometimes so I am not one hundred percent sure I can commit to that yet, but I do wonder if I disappear more if he’ll even care, will anyone else? When I did deactivate my IG in November my real friends did notice and reach out which was nice. He did say once if I ghosted him he’d look for me so who knows, he can also be heartless so if he was hurt enough or mad enough I know he wouldn’t care anyways. Back to the point though, I just keep feeling this huge wave of annoyance and I don’t even really know why. I just know I really have the urge to disappear from everyone and reallt only appear once I have something accomplished. I really do want to make it a top goal to live my life more in private and not so much online because the truth is not everyone cares about your well being they just wanna be nosey for the sake of it. That’s also a downside to living in such a small town, everyone knows your business like you’re back in high school. The drama I was caught up in with my FWB was ridiculous, literally a he said she said thing and my god it reminded me why I stopped dating people in town because everyone has slept with each other. That was probably the main reason why I changed my number because I really liked this guy until I saw him in the DM’s of a friend. One night when I was with him, I tried to cuddle with him and he straight backed up which hurt. So I was in my feels and an old crush hit me up asking to spend the night and I went over just to see if I could maybe get over this guy by getting under someone else…Yeah that was a bust. It was so awkward and overall an awful experience. He was the final straw on why I wanted to change my number, cause I had found out the next day he was still in a relationship. The way both those situations played out pretty much sums up how dating went for me all of 2020. Nothing but bad sex and lack of commitment.
So there you have it readers. I know it isn’t formatted all nice and there’s actual curse words etc but I am to tired to care. I hope you guys enjoyed reading and catching up on the drama that is called my life. Don’t get me wrong, it hasn’t been all bad, I mean I did get my eyebrows tattooed on which was a fun and cool experience. I actually became friends with my brow tech and still text her to this day, I am excited to see her next month for the touch up. However, It is 1 am and I am kinda tired so I am signing off! I value and appreciate every single one of you and I am happy that you all enjoy reading these messy posts cause I went from 3 followers to double digits in just weeks and that really does fuel me to keep writing, this is my passion. Hope you all had a great holiday and have an even greater week, I will make it a goal to post more in the new year! ❤
