I find it so hilarious how uncomfortable people get when you talk about being single. My friends seem more embarrassed about my single status than I am. It’s most likely my own level of confidence that causes me to feel so comfortable with talking about being single and the struggles that come along with it. PSA…Its life!
Okay, so yes, I may talk about it way more than others, but I find a lesson in every experience that comes along in life. I’m a firm believer that some things really do happen for a reason. You just never know when your situation may hit home with someone else. Hence, the reason I like to share them! People always tell me “you need a man” or “you’re desperate”. Why? Is it because I make it so obvious that I’m single? Look, if I find my own singleness entertaining, there is no reason why you shouldn’t feel the same.
I always joke and say, if I needed a man, I would have one. There is no need for me to be desperate. *snap with an eye roll* So don’t you worry your little head, I’ll be just fine. I know the powers I have and the dangers that come along with them. I’m just keeping these babies locked up! Do you and I’ll do me ![]()
So, with that being said, be yourself. Don’t let another person’s awkwardness and narrow-mindedness make you uncomfortable with you. Remember, it’s your world and they’re just a squirrel trying to find a nut.
Yours Truly,
Irene Nichole
P.S. The struggle is meant to make you better than you were before. It’s only temporary. So embrace the struggle. ![]()
