lokieskhan: Yet another year, another 11/11, and another Singles’ Day. I believe in and I celebrate singlehood, but I want to keep it real with y'all: it hasn’t always been easy. Some nights can get lonely; your bed starts to feel a little too big for one. Or when you start putting yourself out there again, but you just keep getting ghosted on over and over and over again; finding yourself in self-doubt, knocking off the focus of you. Meeting someone you believe could be right for you, but time and place won’t allow it. Or a struggle with some sort of instinctive internal defense mechanism that kicks in as soon as you think you are ready to open up again, realizing the trauma from past relationships are still very raw. Feelings are for the weak, and that’s why Dua Lipa bestowed upon us “New Rules” to empower us. Yet we still falter, we never learn. But we still get on with our lives. We go to sleep and we wake up the next day, taking on this crazy world on our own. So cheers to that all my single boys and girls. You are not alone, and I send you all my ❤️ today. Celebrate your strengths found in your vulnerability. Here’s to a heart that bends, but never breaks. Happy Singles’ Day. xx (at Singapore) -- source link
