I am literally writing the book on this! My catchphrase is, “Being single isn’t a phase- it’s a superpower!” And it’s one of the truest things I’ve learned. ✨
Yes to soulmate level shit only!!! Literally makes me want to vomit thinking about settling with past losers — so glad you didn’t. The once-in-a-lifetime love will find you and the timing will all make perfect sense, I promise! 🩷
This deserves to be printed, bound and put in history records. You are the movement my girl. You are the VOICE of our generation of powerful, impactful, change bringing women! I LOVE YOU.
Something that keeps me going when I start to feel like "it's never going to happen for me" is to reflect on all the little moments in my life so far that have felt straight out of a romcom. Maybe those things didn't lead to my happily ever after (yet!), but they're part of my montage! So why *wouldn't* a fairy tail romance be in the cards for me?! For ANY of us. Cos so many things I never would have thought possibly already have 🤷🏽♀️
Caylee, what a beautifully written expression of all of the thoughts the single girlies are having right now. I wish more people were able to see not settling as a sign of strength. I see you!!!! and am so grateful to be on this silly SATC-esque journey together xxKD
I loved reading this. Currently 23, going onto 24 soon—life is just beginning and it feels amazing most of the time! However, a significant portion of people my age that I know are married, engaged, talking about settling down, or even having kids. It’s such a weird time… I’ve been single for three years, and my two best friends in the whole wide world have been single for a while too. I am like 95% certain I’d really be fulfilled by being a mom one day far away from now, but I just do NOT want to settle for less than I deserve. I don’t know, I’m probably rambling but reading stuff like this helps me make sense of my feelings and I really appreciated it <3
