Seriously though, how do you go about allowing yourself to be open to love? I've been single for quite a while, and when my friends try to set me up, or urge me to take a guy out of the 'friend zone', my response is: "Well, i'm just not ready for a relationship. It takes too much energy, and all of my energy is on me right now." But i've come to the conclusion that that answer could be my default one for THE REST OF MY EXISTENCE. So then i ask myself, is that really true? Or is it just an excuse because i'm scared? Can't lie... i'm pretty terrified of letting anyone in. I've always been guarded, but for the past year i've been even more so guarded. I guess what i'm trying to say is that i am ready for a relationship. I'm just not sure if i've got the juice to make one work. I want to be swept off my feet, completely uplifted at the thought of a person. One person whose smile alone would give me the chills. Love is all that lifts us up, and yeah, i want it to lift me up. I want to love, and be loved back. I just needed to vent a little. Feel free to post your thoughts, opinions and all of that good stuff. Xo
