Boredom that comes with being newly single...

by Secret1984 @ Sunday, 06. Apr, 2008 - 06:40:13 pm

So although everybody keeps telling me "But now you're single you can do anything you want!!" - I don't WANT to do ANYTHING!!  I realise how much of my life revolved around OH and his plans now... I have NOTHING in my diary bar work pretty much for the remainder of 2008?!!  What's that about??

I have however started a new job which is very cool!!  LOVE the company and the people are lovely.  Best part of it is that it's in Windsor so always nice new faces to see and LOADS of shops...

Does anybody have a cure for boredom?  So far I've spent the past 2 hours on facebook clicking on the 'Online now' section to see who I can talk to.  Apparently my 'friends' are all 'offline' = 'have a life'.

The future is looking brighter every day...

I've possibly sorted some rented accommodation in a house share with one other guy!!!  YAY!  He sounds normal too which is a bonus as most people on easyroom mate are a little weird!!

I am going to work as much as possible, pay off as much debt as possible and move into my own place towards the end of the year... it's all about saving saving saving.

I accept that OH and I are wrong for eachother... I deserve to have been treated better and he deserves more... we both are better off.  So although it hurts, moving on is the best thing I can do :-)

How to get over a broken heart...

by Secret1984 @ Tuesday, 18. Mar, 2008 - 01:36:46 pm

Any tips???

I'm currently going through the ANGRY phase of the break up... that GIT is going to get on a plane tomorrow KNOWING full well I should be with him.  I don't think he should be going.  If I can't go, neither of us should go and we should BOTH lose our money.  Why should I lose the money because He broke up with ME?!  I didn't choose this?!  He should go in a month or so... not tomorrow, not on OUR holiday, not without me... :-(

It's all over...

by Secret1984 @ Monday, 17. Mar, 2008 - 12:33:54 pm

I've spent the past 2 days trying to accept the fact that my year and a half relationship is over... and I'm destraught.

Yes we are different and yes it's been difficult lately but I really wanted it to work and would have done anything.

I'm struggling to cope at the moment, moving back to a single room at my folks doesn't feel like home.  I feel like I don't belong anywhere and it hurts.

I want to work things out, he doesn't... typical.

Everybody keeps telling me things I already know: "It's his loss, he'll regret it, you WILL move on, you WILL get over this, you WILL love again and MORE" - I know all of these things but for now, I hurt like I've never hurt before.

On the positive side, I'm on the heartbreak diet.

On the negative side, I'm supposed to be going to New York with him on Wednesday and I won't be going.  Instead I have 2 more weeks of working in the same company as him with everybody knowing what's happened, on the verge of tears all the time and Wed-Mon is going to be so difficult when we should be on the plane together and we're not...

Why isn't love enough... why isn't wanting to be together enough... why is it that it HAS to be about the future... :-(

So here's how it is...

by Secret1984 @ Friday, 14. Mar, 2008 - 01:22:58 pm

There's no actual logic or thought going into what I'm going to write now but here goes...

My relationship:
When I met HO I thought he was perfect.  He IS perfect.  He's an amazing guy that everybody loves but he's possibly not perfect for me... there you go, I've said it.  Even writing it down makes me feel guilty!!  Sometimes I think I'm imagining it, sometimes we ARE perfect for eachother and I imagine my whole life with him; sometimes I can't see him in my future.  I want to, but we're different.  He's still living a 'single' persons life.  Not in the sense that he goes out alot and drinks and parties etc, but I'm not in his plans.  We've been living together for 15 months and he won't buy a house with me.  He wants to buy a house.  Not with me.  He wants a 'development project' and I want a home.  I tried to compromise and suggested a project together... he NEEDS to do this alone he says.  I'm confused by the whole thing, I know he adores me, he just doesn't show it.  I crave the love and affection that I can give him but in return I get a lack of both.  He's often quite selfish and now I'm longing for a little more... is there such thing as the perfect relationship???

Work:
Got a new job, really exciting one with great prospects and package... but everybody thinks I've only been offered it as the MD wants to sleep with me.  Trying not to think the worst but being a generally attractive young blonde, it could be the case.  I just want an easy life.

Long to be loved and looked after, long to have a partner who worships me the way I can worship.  Who wants to see the world and isn't scared to live a little.  Who has enough money to look after themself and isn't tight.  Who treats me as the independant woman that I am, supports my dreams and ambitions but isn't afraid to take charge and look after me... sometimes I just want to be looked after.  Is he out there?!  Will I ever know?  Will I stay with HO... if he'd buy a home with me and settle down I think I would.  I adore him, I just don't know if we're too different.

The last few weeks have been a daze...I feel as though I need to come out of my body and watch myself for a week to see what I need to do.  I'm overwhelmed by the changes in my life at the moment and need to take a step back... I need to stay grounded and I don't know how?!  How do I manage the change and feel positive about the future?!  I'm so confused... hope it's just hormones!

...15 months later...

by Secret1984 @ Friday, 14. Mar, 2008 - 12:59:52 pm

... Well I just read my last blog.  It was written in December 2006 when my whole life felt like it was one big dream.

Some things that have happened since that blog:

- My wonderful partner has been on a group holiday with his ex-girlfriend, pure trauma for me.

- I've been to Gran Canaria, Dominican Republic and San Francisco

- I quit my job 7.5 weeks ago

- I start a new job in 2 weeks

- I'm in a generally happy relationship although no longer 100% sure that my partner IS perfect, it's amazing what you think when you're in the honeymoon period!

- I've gained some amazing friends

- Lost some amazing friends

- Started a foundation degree for which I'm getting straight A's

- Booked some piano lessons even though I can neither afford them nor have ANY musical talent whatsoever

- Accrued another £4/£5k debt from my spending habit and useless 'consolidation' methods

- Had laser eye surgery for which I can thank my 20:20 vision!

... and yet on this day, the 14th March 2008, 15 months after my last blog - I felt the urge to start again.  I'm hoping that I can write about my feelings/thoughts and then not worry about them again.  For the purposes of this point forward, I will be known as only 'I' or 'me' and the people in my life will be recognised by initials.  My other half is HO and my best friend is TK...

... WATCH THIS SPACE because I AM BACK!

Catching Up...

by Secret1984 @ Sunday, 24. Dec, 2006 - 11:42:54 pm

So blogging soon lost it's initial spark and I ended up with so much to say that I just stopped altogether!

LOTS has happened since my birthday... not only are OH and I very much IN LOVE... we're now living together in complete bliss and planning our future happiness.  It's bizaare, I've never met anyone before who I can't pick fault with... OH is THAT guy... truly perfect!

Other than that, loving work, one of my best friends had a gorgeous healthy baby girl a week ago, it's Xmas tomorrow and life is generally good.

Seasons greetings to you all, may you all be as happy as I am.

LOVE birthdays!

by Secret1984 @ Tuesday, 14. Nov, 2006 - 07:36:31 pm

Life is GOOD!  It's my birthday today and I am a spoilt cow!  OH - the loveliest guy on the planet had flowers delivered to my work for me (the workplace he shares with me!) and although I've only just found out they're from him (he didn't sign his name), I was secretly hoping all day!  They're gorgeous!  He's now given me half hour to decide what I want to do this evening and he's going to call me when he's finished work (workaholic, his only fault (although I love him for it!))... If I tell him what I really want to do (take him to bed and ravish him) I don't think he'll know what to do with himself and plus, saving that for Friday night at the hotel - so tonight, dinner it is I guess?

1 sleep to go!

by Secret1984 @ Monday, 13. Nov, 2006 - 10:03:26 pm

So tomorrow's my 22nd birthday.  I've been stupidly excited and counting the sleeps until this afternoon when all of a sudden I realise the quicker it comes around, the quicker it'll be over... SO... I'm going to make it last the full week!  Tomorrow night, my lovely OH is taking me out for dinner, Wednesday night, my best friend's taking me to the world music awards for my bday, Thursday night - baby shower round my other best friends house where she'll shower ME in gifts, Friday night - OH and I are staying in a hotel after a celebratory 7 course birthday meal at a fancy smancy restaurant as he can't come out for celebrations on Saturday, Sat night - the big piss up!  All my friends in one room drinking alcohol - aside from my new lover which is sad :-(... Sunday I'll be recovering so I'll accept at that point my birthdays gone for another year... which I hate!  On the other hand, it'll be nice to be past 21... it's that annoying age where everyone says "awww, you're only a baby!" - PISS OFF!!!!

On another topic; recommendation - Jason Mraz - GET THE ALBUM!!! (The live one!) - this guy is incredible!

Wish me a happy birthday!! :-)

Life is good!!

by Secret1984 @ Sunday, 12. Nov, 2006 - 11:40:07 am

Okay... OH and I are officially an item.  We're at that annoying lovey dovey stage where we never want to be apart and we're all over eachother in public... I HATE public displays of affection so I don't know what's happened to me!  I'm falling hard and fast for him but I don't care, I know Clares long gone now... I was even cool when they went to dinner on Friday night, because I know he's only got eyes for me, plus, he told me it was really awkward with Clare this time because he was worrying about me worrying and because there's nothing between them anymore.  LOVING this!!  Tuesday night it's my 22nd birthday, we'e going to stay in a hotel and then he's going to go to work on Wednesday and I'm going to go home to be with my mum for the day.  Work still don't know about us, neither do his friends or family but this is a joint choice.  I don't want people that know Clare assuming I had something to do with them breaking up so we're going to give it a while so the timing doesn't look so bad.  In the meantime, we're spending as much time together as possible and making everyone gag! YAY!  ... I really couldn't be happier!!
