So what, you think I'm beautiful!

I have been single for two years, well almost two years and I find it very interesting that men like to tell me how beautiful I am.  Let's not get the wrong idea, I think I'm beautiful, cute, pretty and feminine and I believe that I'm attractive.  But so what?  There is so much more to me beyond my outer exterior.  I am a woman and not a perfect woman.  I am generally in a good mood, I look for the lighter side of life even when I find myself in tough situations.  I would describe myself as a cool lady, with a sense of humor who loves life and living in the moment.  I am pretty easy to get along with which is what I would think most men would be attracted to.  But why am I still single?  Ugh! 

I know that I am still a work in progress, which also means I'm not exactly ready for my mate to come along.  And I'm okay with that, but it doesn't help to have men talkin' junk to me but not backing it up with anything.  Maybe that's just it, they are all full of themselves and have nothing to offer me but talk.  Hmmm...this leads me to believe that there is nothing wrong with me they recognize they are not up to my level.  It's up to me to see through their crap and move on.

Is this what I have to look forward to?  Wading through the b.s.?

Hello?  Is anybody out there?

I am starting this blog to help me get out all the stuff happening to me that I don't understand.  I'm a young recently divorced lady with no children living in a by city.  I met my husband really young and spent all of my twenties with him, which basically means that I didn't date, go out much or do all the things young chicas do in their twenties.  Now I'm trying to make my way in this world as a single woman.  I don't want to waste this "second chance" at a different life on chasing after love or a relationship because I'm afraid to be alone.  But my heart can't help but desire companionship.  

Maybe writing about my adventures will help me deal and find a way to enjoy single life and find my purpose.  Hopefully you will find some of my adventures and stories funny or inspirational to finding your own inner strength as I'm on a journey to find mine.

So with that, Queen Daneen says, "Live each day to the fullest and don't let fear stop you from what your heart desires."
