Lies We Tell Ourselves
I just realized that I give myself this exact pep talk every time I leave the house, and, you guys, it's not even true.
I say the most ridiculous things and then cringe over them for at least a week before finally moving on. I'm not even sure how I have any friends most of the time.
I am, however, much more outgoing than I have ever been before. I actually enjoy meeting people and talking to people... whether or not they enjoy talking to me is another issue. But it seems that some of my shyness and introversion has faded away a lot over the past year or so.
So one of my main goals this year is to go out and circulate a bit more. Make some new friends, do some new things, end up in jail... WHO KNOWS?!
The main problem I'm finding with doing this is that I'm the only truly single person in my tiny circle of friends (more of a triangle of friends really). So in order to go out and make some new friends, I'm going to have to go out alone??? Oh gawd... I just can't.
What do you think? I wish they had a dating website for just making friends... oh wait they do... it's called Facebook and it's the devil.

ReplyDeleteMy just because you are the only single gal in your posse doesn't necessarily mean you have to go out alone. Does it? Most of my friends (ha, I say that like I have a lot of them) are all taken, but I am more than willing to go out and get down should a single friend ask.
