Okay so being happily married you tend to forget what it was like to be single during the holidays. Saturday night was a little bit of a reminder, Gary and I went out to eat before we headed over to the movies to see Four Christmas’s, totally dug the movie, but anywhooooo…….At the restaurant 3 young single girls were sitting behind us talking a little loud, I think it was with the help of the liquor they were drinking!! All 3 girls were super cute but having the usual boy troubles until you finally find the one! They were talking about break ups and their now horror dating stories! It reminded me a lot of when I was single and my girlfriends and I would get together and bitch and laugh about the same shit!

A have a few girlfriends who are single, not that they don’t want a relationship, they do. However thru the years they have learned to live full happy lives and when and if the right man comes along he will add to their lives NOT make their life finally begin. I think that is the key some of us women forget. We are raised to believe that life doesn’t start until we are married and have kids, not so. When you are single people are always trying to set you up with someone and they give you that “I feel sorry for you look.!” But you must remain strong and remember that you deserve the RIGHT man, not just ANY man so you aren’t single anymore!

I remember during the holidays being single sucked the most! Your family always asked why you haven’t found a nice boy yet and what happened with so and so, he had such great potential! Of course you want a man who is already complete not someone you have to fix! All the Christmas parties have couples galore and New Years Eve, well shit you are left scrambling to think I have to find someone to kiss!! I have to say once I became content with my singlehood the holidays didn’t suck so much anymore. I think the key is to remind yourself that you can still enjoy where your life is right now at this moment because chances are you will get married, you will have kids and that will be a new stage in your life to enjoy.

If you find yourself single this holiday season like those 3 gals at the restaurant, remember it won’t be that way forever, the right guy is out there for you, however you must find happiness with yourself alone before you will find TRUE happiness with someone else. So take this time this Christmas to really enjoy being with yourself, learn to find peace with yourself, love for yourself and next year you just may find yourself with a great man who adds to your already great life and that will help this to be A Wonderful Life!!
