I’m being serious here. I don’t know how?
It’s easy in college, when you’re surrounded by people your own age, in classes with people who share common interests, meeting new people every day, etc etc.
But…then once you’re out of that scene, how do you find people? How do you make friends?
Part of the problem probably is due to my unbearable...

Annoyed with myself...
… that after nearly a year of singledom, I spent the day pining for the ex and wondering why he didn’t send me a Christmas card or reply to my phone message from last week.
Why do I always expect that men will pleasantly surprise me? Why can’t I accept that they’re all shits?

… I am thinking of going to Australia next summer (Jul/Aug). Due to the time of year, it appears that Cairns/Whitsunday Islands area will be the best for me to visit. I would like to go for 3/4 weeks, so - what should I do and see? Any recommendations for good places to stay? Places to avoid? Any advice much appreciated!

Homesickness is just a state of mind for me. I’m always missing someone or someplace or something, I’m always trying to get back to some imaginary somewhere. My life has been one long longing.

And then I felt sad because I realized that once people are broken in certain ways, they can’t ever be fixed, and this is something nobody ever tells you when you are young and it never fails to surprise you as you grow older as you see the people in your life break one by one. You wonder when your turn is going to...

“a man who wants to make a relationship work will move mountains to keep the woman he loves. if he’s not calling you to tell you he loves you and wants you back, it should only be because he’s showing up at your new residence to do it in person … if he’s not doing any of that, he may love you, he may miss you, but ultimately he’s just not that into you. stop taking...

I like this idea. I do stuff like this all the time but I hadn’t thought of this one before. I don’t know the original author :( “I no longer recognize marriage. It’s a new thing I’m trying. Turns out it’s fun. Yesterday I called a woman’s spouse her boyfriend. She says, correcting me, “He’s my husband,” “Oh,” I say, “I no longer recognize marriage.” The impact...

And I’m not altogether sure what I want to do with it. It’s very pretty and has a ladybird & a dandilion on the cover, but that just makes me even surer I don’t want to waste it. Which is why I have an idea! We should pass it around from one Tumblr user to the other, each of us adding a page to the journal. It can be...
