I know I haven’t written in a while. Some of you have said you miss my blogs, and I can’t tell you how much that means to me.
I could give you tons of excuses, blaming it on too much work & other troubles in my life, but the truth is I haven’t felt moved to write. Most of Miss Attitude’s blogs come strait from the heart, and my heart’s been a little fragile lately.
One year ago this month, I had my heart broken so badly I wasn’t sure how to put the pieces back together. I honestly thought this man was going to be a part of my life for years to come. I guess he had other plans.
For a while, I kept communicating off and on under the guise of friendship. That’s what he wanted, and of course I was delusional, thinking he would change his mind. He never did. And never will. I have finally come to terms with that.
I thought I had someone I could love and was my best friend. Frankly I’m not sure he knows the true definition of either. Now, I didn’t sit around and wait. I kept dating. Dud after dud… maybe it’s time to bring back Meet the Exes Mondays lol.
After every dud & bad turn in my personal life, I turned to him to make me feel better. And it did for a short while, but eventually the truth would slap me in the face. He didn’t want to be with me. So I finally decided enough was enough. I stopped communicating, and it eventually got easier.
While I can’t say the whole experience hasn’t left me more cynical than I was to start with, I can say I refuse to give up. While my faith waivers from time to time, I know I want more. I deserve better. Some day. Until that day happens, I try to enjoy the people in my life who truly love and care about me. It’s not quite the same, in fact sometimes it’s better.
They’ve always been there and have never run away when things got tough. Instead, they’re the first ones to help in those situations. And to them, I am forever grateful.
Stylishly yours,
Miss Attitude

I am soooo happy you are back and I love this post. I know that one day there is someone special out there for us. Because basically we are both too fabulous for there not to be.
Love you Miss Attitude!
So happy you are writing again! Welcome back.
It takes a long time to heal from a broken heart. Have comfort in knowing those who truly care and love you stand with and by you no matter what.
Shoot, it hasn’t been that long since your last post ….. lets see now, it was in Latin so how long ago could it have been (lol)
Glad you’re back on the horse, and you’ve made a wise decision – cut that rope and get on with your life. You’re stronger for it.
You know you’ve got caring friends, lean on them for strength
You are amazing!
