Fair warning, this probably isn't the happiest of entries....read the one before this for the update on life and the good stuff....
So, why is it that the holidays always have a way of being depressing? I guess mostly it's being single that has me depressed this evening. It just seems like everyone seems to have someone in their life that they can share moments like this with. The holidays just get kind of lonely. I don't know what's harder, not having anyone, or not being able to find the right person. I've met lots of people in the last year, gone on dates with a few of them, yet no one seems right. Maybe I have my standards set too high. Maybe I just can't shake ideal pictures from my head. Maybe I shouldn't compare these people to other people I know, but I just can't seem to shake those thoughts from my head.
Everyone always tells me I'll meet someone some day, but I just get down about it right now. For 350 days of the year it usually doesn't bring me down. Maybe it will be a little while here and there, but it's not usually for days at a time. Christmas, Valentine's Day, My Birthday, and a couple other days during the year, it can be really lonely and I don't know what to do about it. I go out, I meet new people all the time....i just don't know any more. I know there's one ideal, but I also know it's not an option....
Oh well, at least I have my family and friends and I'll make the most of the holidays. I can't get too down and out, my nephew is coming on Monday and I'm sure that will cheer me up for a couple hours.
