Too Young To Be Rushing Things

With it being the weekend of “love” it’s hard not to stop and reflect on your own love life. For me this festive season of love is overhyped and overrated, although I’m probably only saying this because I’ve never received a dozen red roses and  I only seem to get a “Happy Valentine’s Day” text from my parents. Ha! This time of year may have you feeling some type of way if you spent it alone; a friend of mine called me earlier this week in a strop about how “she’s so tired of being alone” and how she’s “been alone all her life”. There was a clear disconnect between me and her within this conversation because although I’m single just like her, I couldn’t sympathise or connect with what she was saying. My only thoughts during her Kanye West style rant were “what’s the rush to be with someone?”
