Romantic Loneliness<\/p>\n
I am listening to a beautiful song by John Legend as I write this. I also just read an email from a great guy who talked about going to bed alone again. I believe that all of us long for love! <\/p>\n
I know that I do. When a person gets depressed and doesn\u2019t have the love of a partner, it can be tough- that is for sure! <\/p>\n
I made a decision to be celibate for 2008. I did it. I am doing it again in 2009. This is an odd decision for an extreme extrovert who loves being with people- especially men! But it\u2019s a decision I had to make. I\u2019ve been in relationships for all of my adult life. A few years ago after some really poor relationship choices- many born of naivet\u00e9 \u2013 I just wanted a break. If you read my work regularly, you know that I am really good at the relationships themselves, but the dating was simply hell. So I stopped. <\/p>\n
2009 is my year of health and wealth. I have huge goals that I know I will meet. 2010 is my year for a relationship. I believe that we can have anything we want if we plan ahead and do the steps needed to reach our goals. I did this with my bipolar disorder treatment plan- and I have succeeded more than I thought possible. I can have a life again- but I don\u2019t have it in me to deal with money, health and men at the same time. The bipolar disorder can\u2019t handle it. <\/p>\n
I know that in order to stay stable, I have to do things in order. <\/p>\n
So, I go to bed alone at night and that is ok. Sure, it\u2019s lonely sometimes. But I now have the brain space needed to make some big changes in my life. This means that when I do seek and meet the right person- my health and wealth will be the best they have ever been! <\/p>\n
