Sometimes we have to face the fact that we are the ones who are wrong, but that doesn't make us bad.
My dad once said that I am the worse person to give relationship advice, after all I have had a series of long and bad relationships. But I think that makes me the right person to get relationship advice from.
I mean don't we learn by watching other peoples mistakes or failures?
I am not claiming to know everything.
I am not using this blog to shoutout how right I am or how wrong my partner is.
I am going to be writing about how I feel good or bad, no sugar coating.
I am going to fight the stereotypes that say we have to be married or living with someone.
I am going to fight the stereotypes that say an older single woman is an old maid.
I am going to fight with all my power to show the world that an older single woman,
can do anything she puts her mind to.
I am sorry dad, I know I have failed many times, I may not know what to do to have a successful relationship, But I am sure as hell know what not to do.
So many people worry about being the wrong one in a relationship. Who cares! I would rather be wrong than miserable.
How about you?
Go you!! I admire your attitude and here's what everyone thinks of me: aged 20 I was engaged. I immediately became allsorts of names but only myself and my closest family and friends knew that he was my childhood love. We broke up when he cheated on me and I had months and months of 'I knew you wouldnt last, you're too young'. I knew I wasn't so I hated those stereotypes. I feel so proud and happy for you to be wanted to make a change. Hope you are ok though.

thank you beautiful for your encouraging words! I am at the point where I don't care anymore, let them say what they want. Life is too short to be unhappy and I am choosing my sanity and happiness over peoples opinions. Oh, I am fine, thank you for your concern. I was cheated on once its a sad tale, I will share it soon! thanks for listening :)
DeleteHear hear!! I totally admire and agree. And I am glad you're doing ok :-)
DeleteYou go girl!!! I've had two failed marriages. YES, I said TWO! The first time, I got married at 18, and unfortunately, he was incredibly abusive, and it took me being pushed through a window, resulting in over 200 stitches and scars that will NEVER go away, in order to get enough balls to leave. The truth was, I had two young kids, they are 19 months apart in age, and my son, my youngest, was still in diapers when I left. The second time lasted 10 years, but I became ill, and he wasn't man enough to handle it, so he found another woman, and told me he wanted a divorce. I had decided NEVER again would I fall in love or get married. Then, my first love (teenage) and I found one another through Classmates, and the rest is history, lol. We've now been married for going on 7 years, and I DO know, without a doubt, that he will NEVER leave me, nor will he ever cheat on me. Did I mention that my first husband cheated on me constantly? Yep, I was the last to know...as usual. No one told me ANYTHING about THAT until after we were divorced. Nice... Anyway, I know that you are a VERY strong woman, and I know that no matter what happens, you will come out of it somewhat scarred, but wiser and even stronger! <3
