So, I haven't been honest with myself. I know what I want and I shouldn't compromise it. I need to find it and not settle. I know too many people who have. I think I've tricked myself into believing that I love him because it's easy and not because I do. I use the excuse that I'm drawn to him because I don't want to believe it's really about me doing whatever he wants and not much of what I want. I thought things were getting better but now I don't think so. Plus, I already told everyone we broke up, so I'll get a ton of shit if I decide to stay with him. And I don't think it's gonna be worth it because we don't want the same things.
Someone pointed out the fact that I seem to be willing to do what ever for attention from a guy. And I guess it's kinda true. I really try to weed through the bullshit, but it's very hard. And they're very good at it. I didn't think I'd be like that because I was single for so long, but now I just want to be with someone. I'm tired of being single. And all my friends are getting married or have been in long, committed relationships and I guess I fear that it won't happen for me.
But things aren't bad. I just wish I could see things better myself. I don't know why I want to work so hard at something that's not worth it. I want to take everything that is crappy and ugly and make it like it's shiny and new, which just can't happen. Some things are meant to be crappy.
