Okay, okay…. so I know the title is cliched, right? Yeah it is a little bit. But it’s true. It’s sad, but a lot of people I see nowadays, friends included, are simply not falling in love anymore. They’re finding someone who has a 401k plan and good insurance and making them their significant other. They don’t love their other half… they just love what they bring to the table. I don’t know what I want in a prospective mate but I know that I don’t want that. I want to fall in LOVE. As to what that will feel like, yeah I’m not sure. But I know that one day it will happen.

All my life I have been the good girl. I’m the overachiever, the one who always makes straight A’s, or close to it, and never lets anyone down. Everything I do, everything I’ve done, has always been for the benefit of someone else. And, I must confess, I’m tired of that. I want to do something that makes ME happy, not something that uplifts everyone around me. Selfish? Maybe. But for once in my life, I think it’s a good ting.
