Do you know what you want?

For my fellow Librans...

At one stage in my life, I thought I knew what I want, as I get older... other things became more important like career, money, and stability.

I'm no writer and I created this account a year or two ago and spent most of my time here creating posts about guys that I've dated and dating.

For once, it should be about me. I don't know what I want and who I want and am I going to find my other half?

It must feel great to fall in love and be loved but why am I so complicated... why am I not one of the lucky ones?

Are you feeling the same?

i'd be surprised if everyone didn't feel this way at some point in their lives.

you're not any more complicated than anyone else. we are all fucked up in our own special way.

I used to feel like this a few years back. I felt like I didn't know what I want and that there's something I was looking for but I didn't know what.

I've been single for more than a year now and while I tried to talk to men, I find myself not being interested in dating someone atm. Being in a relationship is not on my top 3 priorities. It's not even on my top 5. I guess I'm just focusing on my son more and busy with work and active life style . It could just be a phase. Or it could be because I'm getting older. Who knows?

Just don’t put too much importance on relationships. Keep your side gigs, hobbies, and pastimes because some people are full of shit. Also, most people do not know what they want at some point in their life especially in a relationship sense. Gain some introspection and focus on what you truly value.

You might find the person at the oddest time. I just don’t like seeing people sad and waiting around for the perfect relationship or perfect life.

As a Libra, I want it all (hahahaha). I have a great career but I am also extremely lonely. Unfortunately, my personal circumstances are super tricky so the lonely factor will not go away anytime soon. But I guess finding someone who completes me and fulfils me take precedence over anything. That one man who will make my heart race, who I can hold hands with, have our little (or big) arguments and fall back together, who when he looks at me finds me beautiful (from his heart)- that is my heart's desire. We can all work hard to earn money and success, but true love, that is such a rare rare gem. I don't think I will ever find it the way life is at the moment. And for that I only have a deep sense of sadness nothing more. Perhaps I will devote my life to serving and helping others- that is another aspect where I find a true sense of fulfilment. Not to mention becoming a leader at some point. The list never ends does it...

Just living day to day.

I have plans/goals but don't know when they'll happen or if they'll even happen.

Been single for 6 or so years and felt like I just been stuck in a loop.

Go to work 9-5, go home. Seriously feel thats all I ever do. Is that what being an adult is?

If so its awfully boring and repetitive.

Of course I do go out from time to time with friends but its isn't enough.

Holding onto the first job since I was 18/19.

Want something new but feeling like that won't happen until I can get my associates so I can actually get on with my career/ my own life.

I don't meet new people or hardly talk to anyone other than my friends.

And the only times I thought something actually was going to be good to me regarding a person comming into my life in these 6 years

Something happens and I get awfully friend-zoned (Where all she ever did was talk about all the other guys trying to hit on her)

Or I guess a drunken (fluke I guess) happens with another person where I thought something good was going to come out of it but instead leave me confused and something I'm probably just holding on to.

What do I want?

Life to stop giving me these little "tastes of hope" then take it away from me. Then have me suffer watching them be happy/do stuff with someone else.

Fuck.


if you want life to be different, make a different life.

expand your friendship circle, get involved in more activities, tell people you are looking to date (you never know who your friends know - spoken like a true libra...), create an interesting life, say yes to most (if not all) opportunities and see where that takes you.

do it as an experiment. start in january and stick to it for a full year.
