Okay...here goes some more random babbling...

I would like to comment on Ms. Heather's latest blog (thereisthat.blogspot.com) about my remark that I made about her "losing" the single vibe. I did not mean it to be a put down by any means at all. I am happy for my girlfriends that are in a good, healthy, loving relationship. Really, I am. However, there is always the flip side of your girlfriends getting into that comfy zone w/ their honey that changes the level on the girlfriend friendship. Now, we "single" gals have not changed our lifestyle during your relationship w/ said lovebug but you have. All of a sudden, girlfriends that you could call up in the middle of the night or morning to bitch or dramatize about whatever (whether it be a guy or just a broken nail) become different. Convos are not on the same level. The sympathizing is also on a different level. We "single" gals and our "dramas" become entertainment to our now "coupled" friends. The same coupled friends that were in the same trenches as us before they met the perfect guy. Now, I don't want anyone to think that this is coming from a bitter jealous single woman angle. It really isn't. It's coming from a person that has been on both sides of the fence. I was missing for almost seven years from my friends and the rest of the world during my incarceration with my ex. However, that was an extreme case. And I am not saying that any my newly hooked up friends are on that harsh level of dismissal. I am now on the single gal's receiving end and I can understand that this all a part of the circle of life or however that saying goes. I enjoy being single and I am taking full advantage of all the opportunities life throws my way because I am single. I just ask my coupled girlfriends to respect the fact that I am single and I haven't changed my lifestyle just because they have. And that every once in awhile to remember that we "single" gals just need to vent to our girlfriends(premeeting their personal love slaves), the ones that used to go out on those infamous drinking missions when your heart was broken once again by another asshole. Therefore, on that note I just want to pass on some advice that was given to me- The only thing you really need to get through anything in life is girlfriends-value them accordingly. Love and kisses to all (single and coupled buddies)....
