Being alone

I’m in a new city where I don’t know anyone. I love my new hometown and wouldn’t go back for anything but sometimes its lonely and dating is tough. I can’t get set up with a friend of a friend, so I have to create opportunities to meet someone. I usually push myself to do something at least once a week, whether that is going out by myself, talking to people at my apartment complex or joining meet up groups.

I’m trying to keep the faith I’m going to meet that guy. The one I don’t see coming, the one who sees my worth, amazes me with how nice he is, and treats me like I know I deserve.

Until then I continue to swipe right, talk to people I meet while I’m out and about, and try to hold that loneliness at bay. Some days it’s easier to do than others.
