Real talk...
I’ve spent half of my life in and out of relationships, searching for love and acceptance in a partner instead of coming to that place within myself.
15 years of telling myself that with a man, I’m more balanced - more grounded.
I’ve always likened myself to a balloon that needs a partner to hold me by the string so that I can fly safely as I explore my passions and curiosities. #freespirit
This new chapter is one of finding that groundedness in myself instead of searching for it in another person.
-
This ring is a promise to myself...
It’s a promise of love and loyalty - to always try my best to do what feels right for me.
It’s a promise that I’ll spend quality time with myself and find meaningful conversation with others - the things that fill me most.
It stands for unconditional acceptance - I want to see all the parts of me with compassion instead of judgement.
It is a symbol of my commitment towards filling my own cup with dates, and trips, and new experiences instead of waiting for a life partner to do those things with.

Shit, I was so stressed for a while about being single at this age.
I looked around at the traditional model of a woman and felt like I was failing in some sense because I wasn’t on track to have a husband and kids.
Now I see this as my own story and a future of different possibilities - and one that’s becoming increasingly more common.
-
I came to this place where I just had to surrender.
If things are meant to go down that path, then I know I will have a beautiful life.
And if they don’t, I’ve decided that I’ll still have a freaking beautiful life and experience it to the fullest.
-
I know there are other women out there who struggle with being single and I want to let you know you’re not alone, but that it’s a beautiful place to be if you embrace it instead of resisting it.
💛✨

I think what made the biggest difference for me in finding happiness in being single and now, bringing that into a relationship I am in was one moment. I was unhappy and afraid of wasting my life searching for someone. Then I had to really ask myself: would you be ok if you were single for the rest of your life? Would you chose to be happy despite not being in a partnership? Most of us would say no, fuck no! But not until I said fuck yea, I was able to just be and not chase anything or anyone. Not until you’re content with the “worst” outcome you can really relax and learn shit about yourself and about people you meet. Not until you stop all expectations of every encounter being a possible step to relationship or marriage, you won’t be able to live fully and honestly. Getting married or being with someone might not last forever neither it’s a guarantee of a “happy” outcome at end. Being prepared to be single and happy allowed all things to fall into place as they should❤️

So proud of you beautiful. Inner work is key! We have to love ourselves first to the point of being okay in our lonesome (without a partner.) We need ourselves in order to unleash our inner wisdom and river of love, for ourselves. Because we matter. Because we need to come home to ourselves. Because we need a partnership with ourselves to flourish, and bring others into their bliss before we meet someone that is right for us. The right person is found while you’re following your passions, and being your complete authentic self. You glow from the inside out.

Nicole I feel like the exact opposite like their are single men that struggle being single. I am not trying to sound contrary though as to what your saying most definitely yes their are women who struggle with being single and I wish for all those sweet charming ladies that they end up finding mr right in the future. I also wish you the absolute best going forward in your relationship good luck Nicole! 😀

Our society works so hard to divide men and women and people just buy into it. It also used to focus on family more than the individual. Bottom line for me, too much virtual (dating apps and social media) not enough in person connections. People can’t carry deep conversations anymore because people don’t know how to listen. Or at least not care about themselves for more than 10 mins.
