I am more excited looking (and planning, let’s be real) at Pinterest wedding pages now than I was when I had a man telling me he was ready to marry me. What does that mean? It means that I was not with “Mr Right”. I was with a “Mr” or a “Right Now”- but not the combination. I do not doubt that he loves me, or that I love him. That is undeniably. But you are allowed to fall in love with a man who is not “Mr Right”.
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO FAIL IN RELATIONSHIPS. In fact, It is not failing, it is attempting to do your best and realizing that fate does not agree. It’s natural. It’s life.
It does not mean you are somehow less strong, courageous, beautiful, or passionate. It means that you know exactly what you are worth. Can we PLEASE stop going along with this stupid pre-conceived notion that we have to have our MRS degree by our senior year. It’s absolutely nutty. We are seriously the most beautiful specimen on earth. Promise me you will stand up for yourself, for your rights, for your passions, for your “Magic Mike” time (I’ll be frank, toys>boyfriends).
I’ll check in later next week with an update. If I had to guess, it will involve more wine and interesting anecdotes. I’ll probably be lit and quite angry. Hell, maybe I’ll be that incredible girl that crafts her way through a breakup (what a funny joke). If you’re interested in become my next article topic- hit me up on Twitter: @gflan726. Please be normal, at least somewhat…maybe? Cool thanks! Hell, I’m pretty good at making you feel better about your life choices.
