Anyone turning on their vulnerable side will tell you how uncomfortable that is!
So many questions go through your mind – will I be accepted or rejected? and how would I react if I am rejected? Am I making a fool out of myself? And what would the other party think of me from then on? So many questions run through our minds in these situations and it’s human isn’t it, but we can’t let the negatives and the fears of what could be hold us in our paths of glory now, could we?
Thankfully I found a way to cope with the flip slide of vulnerable! And nowadays, I tell myself that
‘ it just wasn’t meant to be’!
It’s so refreshing to look at the situation this way, isn’t it? Which is why I wasn’t so scared to express how I felt to the mutual friend who introduced me to this Cutie from last week. Heck I’m a girl on a mission to get that rock by next year so it’s important for me to process and express these thoughts and feelings freely. As wise as he is, our mutual friend agreed to find out how Mr Cutie felt about me, which was very nice of him.. But as it has been a week now and I have received any news, not even tinkle on my iPhone, I can only assume at this point that Mr Cutie has been traumatized (hopefully not hospitalised) by the silliness of our first introduction or he’s just not interested! It’s just what it is!
The flip side of vulnerable left me deflated, as it would for anybody but only for a short while. Let’s face it, how I choose to play next card really depends on me. I can choose to replay the “could have beens” or I can look forward to my next date.
You know which one I’ll go for..
Love always
Mandy
