Happy To Be Without

I got home tonight and was weirdly happy for the first time in a while that I am not in a relationship. Not because I don’t want one, of course not, I am honestly looking forward to having someone to cook dinner for and sit with to watch TV with on Sunday nights, but today I was just happy that I didn’t have someone who would take me away from all the people and things that I get to enjoy in my life.

I know that there are plenty of people that get into relationships and don’t miss out on their family and friends, but there are some that unintentionally seem to push away from those around them. They lose themselves in a relationship and everyone else falls by the wayside. I hope that when the time comes I will not be one of those people.

One thing that I always seem to forget is how lucky I am to have the people I do in my life. But because of the counseling that I have been going to, my counselor always reminds me that I am blessed to have such supportive and wonderful people in my life and that they are lucky to have a friend like me.
