Break ups are hard but after time passes, you can find out that they are rewarding. I often find myself disgusted with things I enjoyed with my ex, like certain movies, televisions shows andetc. The reason why, is that I was becoming what he wanted me to be and still didn’t get the ring. So now I am in an exclusive relationship with MYSELF! What I mean by this is I take ever step that I would do in a relationship but for myself only.

Step 1: Look the part- When I get up in the morning I want to make sure I look good. As I step outside my goal is to make heads turn. I love to see men get wide eye and do the Charlie Chaplin with their eye brows as they see me walk by. I don’t respond to the attention physically because I know it takes more to get my time. Ever notice people who are in good relationships are quick to tell others that try to pursue them, that is what not responding to others attention being single is doing for me. Being confident gets you attention that you deserve!

Summer is in full swing and if you are single, now is a great time to really take advantage of being single and meet someone new. Whether you are a guy or a girl, straight, gay, bi, you have the opportunity of taking advantage of what summer has to offer. Of course, it depends on where you live. If you live in a large city area, then you have a slough of planned events to look forward to. Even if you live in a more rural community, there are likely a few area planned outdoor events, but you will just have to be a little more creative or drive to your nearest large city!

While some cannot comprehend the fact that there are those out there who actually would prefer to stay unattached for their life time, I believe it is your right to choose how one lives their life and once you have chosen it is not the responsibility of others to try and change their minds.

Many people have the fear of taking chances in life because it means we have to make necessary changes that may be very uncomfortable for us. As human beings it is our nature to find our own comfort level. Once we define that level, we tend to stick to it for a long time until one day our environment forces us to get out of that comfort zone and find a new place where we can be comfortable again. What many people don’t realize is that making changes means creating more opportunities or possibilities. In the business world, we call this phenomenon “Opportunity Cost”.
