I'm proud of myself because I got out of bed this morning.

Awesome! Great start :)

sorry for your loss

I'm proud of myself because I'm finally over my ex-girlfriend, and being single is easier than I thought it could be. I thought I couldn't live/be happy without her, I was convinced of it, because I loved her so much and for so long,but my friend Sarah (who did nothing but try to tell me that my ex sucks), and a lot of thinking, helped me realize that I don't need someone who doesn't need me. And now I'm doing a lot better, I haven't thought about her in over a week, and I'm really, just in general, happy. 2014 was a good year for me, minus the break-ups, and I have a feeling 2015 will be even better. Oh, and my friend Sandy is moving here from California soon, so I'll actually get out of the house for once! I'm so excited about that, he has his own car and said he'll take me anywhere I wanna' go, my mom doesn't exactly approve of me hanging out with him, though, because she considers him a "freak" for dying his hair and wearing nail polish, but I'm 23 and she can't tell me who to be friends with anymore. The only thing that I'm worried about is his dad, his dad is a major asshole, who constantly abuses him (verbally and physically), and I'm the type of person who willnotlet that happen, I told Sandy and my mom that if he says something mean, or tries to hurt Sandy, I would "kick his fucking ass", and my mom made me promise that I wouldn't get into a fight with him, but that promise means nothing, I protect the people I care about, my grandma was abused by her husband, and had I been around I would've protected her. Sandy's a good guy, he doesn't deserve the shit his family gives him. Plus, I think I might like him, which is weird, considering I'm a lesbian, but hey, the heart wants what it wants, and if he likes me I'm not going to stop him lol
