I have actually done the opposite of this recently but am happy with my decision to do so. I ended a relationship that I was in from the age of 17 – 22. Now, I still want meaningful relationships in a romantic sense, but I am happy that I have been able to meet and be with other people. I no longer feel like I am missing out on knowing my options in life.

I feel that I have created meaningful friendships recently, but time will tell if they are lasting. There are two people in my life currently that I spend time with on a fairly regular basis. These two people I met at work. One of them I go out with almost every weekend and I feel that she has allowed me to be myself more. She is also always there for me when I need someone to talk to. The other is someone that I have just recently started spending time with, but she actually makes and keeps plans with me. We have a lot in common and I hope both of these friendships continue while I live in Flagstaff and hopefully longer.

Technically I would consider this an ongoing and possibly lifelong goal. However, recently I have reconnected and hung out with old friends. Most of the friends are those that I was close with in high school and for about a month I was down in Phoenix every weekend hanging out like old times. It was amazing and also allowed me to reconnect with old romantic interests. I have also reconnected but have not yet hung out with a person that I knew in middle school. I was a horrible person to him, he was crazy about me. Thanks to Facebook we found each other and have spoken and made loose plans to hangout in the near future.
