shut up, sit down, and read

everything is opposite…

Currently listening to: According To You – Orianthi

But according to him
I’m beautiful, incredible
He can’t get me out of his head
According to him
I’m funny, irresistible
Everything he ever wanted
Everything is opposite
I don’t feel like stopping it
So baby, tell me what I’ve got to lose

My friend asked me why she wasn’t enough for her now ex-husband.  They’ve been together since she was sixteen years old.  I didn’t have an answer for her.

People change.  They evolve.  For better or for worse.

I wasn’t the same person I was before.  I’m not the slob, you could fry an egg on my head with all the grease that had accumulated, lazy and not brush my teeth or hair, chronically late to everything, and habitually over drafting my funds person anymore.  I’m quite the contrary now.  I’m probably one of the most hygienic, hustling, and on time if not early, and money saving females amongst my friends.  I’m still a FITS (freak in the sheets). There are some things that don’t change, hah!

I can’t tell you what made me change all of the sudden other than I had dreams.  I had aspirations and desires.  I was more self-aware.  My needs and goals changed and if I wanted to succeed, I had to undergo a metamorphosis.

I couldn’t tell her why she wasn’t enough for him.  All I could tell her was that she was not the same person I met a decade ago.  She wasn’t the meek and quiet person hiding behind her man anymore.  She lost nearly fifty pounds, she was standing up for herself, her self-confidence had increased, and she was finding her voice.

    Amen to your friend! Sounds like she found herself but also lost a part of her. Wishing her well, hope she’s better now.

    Hope you are feeling happy everyday, Rojie. Rather than saying you have improved, I rather think you were always awesome and cool.
    Hope you find the best man for you, soon.

    I think , I have changed too , a lot I think . Just realized it after I read this . I would define the past me as an idiot but happy and now I am sort of less idiot and less friendly 😂

    That’s probably the reason. She got better and did better for herself, and some people don’t like that, even the ones we love most at times.

      Some people want their significant others to never change…and when it happens, it def becomes an issue
