So what happens when you take yourself off the market after many years of being a single girl? You get your heart broken. That's what happened to me. I put myself and my heart out there only for it to be trampled on. So it starts to make me question myself. Am I not capable of a loving adult relationship? Will I forever be single? Will I ever find the one for me?
Initially I felt like a fool for even putting myself out there. For even trying something new and turning over a new leaf. For thinking that the person I was with could even potentially be the one for me. And although I am disappointed by the outcome I know that I'm not a fool. I took a chance on love. I experienced what it was like to love someone and to be loved. And although I gave a lot of myself and my time I don't regret it. It was a learning experience. As my girlfriend said this relationship was just preparation for the right person. I may not necessarily see it now but I know she's telling the truth.
These past few months made me realize that I am fully capable of having a loving adult relationship. I know that I can be that special someone for that special someone. So now its just a matter of waiting for that one for me until then I'll continue being the single girl I once was. Hopefully the wait won't be too long but either way it'll be worth the wait I'm sure.

One thing that love should be (in my mind) is easy. Being single isn't a death sentence. Instead of wasting time on Mr. Wrong, let's use our "single" time to work on ourselves until Mr. Right comes.
well said @donnice. while the saying "you have all the time in world" is not true; it is better to wait on something great than to waste time on something for the right now.
I definitely believe that you are fully capable of attaining and maintaining a loving, nurturing adult relationship and I am glad to know that you recognize that. Donnice is absolute right in that you should take advantage of the opportunity to grow, working on yourself, and just loving you right now. In the interim, I have no doubt that love will sneak right up on you when it is supposed to. :)
