From The Girl Who Can't Imagine Being In A Serious Relationship

I don't dream about the man I want, I dream about the puppies I need.

I am not your average girl. I don’t stay up at night dreaming about the cute boy I will marry or about finding a guy that I could settle down with. Instead, I dream about the puppy I want to get, the trips I want to go on, and all the other things I’d love to explore in my life.

I can’t imagine being in a serious relationship because there is still so much I don’t know about myself.

I’m still finding out who I am, who I want to be and what all of that means. My question to myself is always “how can I be with someone else when I don’t know who I am?”

Some may look at me and think that I’m lonely, but I’m quite the opposite! I am free to do whatever it is that I want at any moment. I can go ship off to Paris for a week if I feel like it, or travel to anywhere in the world if I desired (or had the funds to do so) I don’t need to tell anyone where I’m going, what I’m doing etc.

I can’t imagine what life is like for those girls who don’t go out without their SO or spend every waking moment with their significant others. I mean, I love my friends and I spend most of my time with them, but I also spend a lot of time alone reflecting on my life, and who I am. I’m able to see who I truly want to be without having anyone else’s life involved. I can truly find myself without having to make sure that my SO has the same life plans as mine.

Instead I know that wherever my life takes me, I’ll someday find what most people do, but for now, I can’t imagine being in a serious relationship and neither can some of these single girls who could careless about it.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
