Hey there, I just found your blog through the 20something page that recommended you! How cool! Now I know why. You have an amazing writing style. I definitely appreciate this post for how honest it is. I struggle with the same thing. You’re right though… you really need to be perfectly fine by yourself before you can be with someone else. That’s a tough realization to come to. Thanks for this post!

brandon, i totally can relate with you. it can be hard but when you have moments, like you did last night, where you are happy with you are and where you are, you can’t complain. i appreciate your honesty. a lot of bloggers can’t portray in their writing what you did. so glad to have found you much love.

Occasionally he can surprise us with his kind-hearted words. Maybe they mean more when we know they are so few and far between. But he is right you ARE good on your own. Besides, I’m a firm believer that boys don’t become men until like 30. Your romance will come. Maybe you just need to leave a few shoes behind as you do running off into the night, Cinderella style. LOVE YOU (even if I don’t act like it sometimes)

I love you for this post. I am in the exact same place in my life right now too. Every once in a while I go down that dead-end road of self-pity (then make the quickest u-turn ever). Ultimately I like being single and wouldn’t have it any other way. I’ve been single for the last 2 years. Before that I had been in a relationship for 8 (not with the same person but with different people, just one right after the other) and I never realized how much there is to discover in yourself, as cliche as that sounds. I feel so fortunate to have the strength to be single (and happy) and discover so much about myself and the world that I wouldn’t be able to if I was in a relationship.

Thanks for this post and sorry for the novel-length comment!

I want to hug you for a good 35 minutes straight right now.

…”straight”… yeah. Okay.

Anyway, this is amazing, Brandon. It’s these little moments of realization that really knock sense into us. I SAW that text message being sent, me being nosey and all. And it WAS well put. Given the person it was coming from.

Let’s have a Saturday night do-over soon.
