Hmm, well good news… things are better. In a way.
I’ve done quite a bit of thinking these past few days and realised a few things about myself. I need stability. I think everyone does, to different extents and in different ways. Some people need job stability, some need locational stability and some need emotional stability. I think i need the latter. This year has been pretty turbulent, my parents divorce, moving house, losing contact with my mum and starting a new job, I haven’t had any real stability for quite a while. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. There are people in the world who are a lot worse off than me, I’m not losing perspective on the world or anything. It’s just that right now I’m focusing on me, because I can and this is my site so I can do what I want on it. ok?! good
Anyway, I think I was hoping that a girlfriend would offer the kind of stability that I was looking for. I wasn’t looking to settle down, or get overly committed but just to have some companionship and someone who I could talk to about anything and everything. My (ex)girlfriend and I could do that, we talked about a lot of stuff, some of it was just pure rubbish and the rest of it wasn’t. I miss that. The ability to talk about crap with someone who will talk crap back, but know when to be serious and honest. I was probably looking for too much in my last relationship, trying to find something that wasn’t there but could’ve.
So I need to do some more thinking before I know how to move on and how to deal with the lack of stability in my life. In some ways I just want to ignore it, but I know that won’t make me happy. If I look inside myself a bit more then I might just be able to figure it out a bit more and find what I really need. And that might just be an email.
Who knows?
