One man talked so much, it was obvious he was hiding something.

The other was way too sure of himself.

And the last fellow wanted me but wasn’t willing to put in any effort. Meet me halfway. Um…no?

Except, I blocked each and every one of them, and slept like a baby. Choosing myself is new, but needed. I’ve had my fair share of trouble.

I don’t think every single man alive is mentally incapacitated, but there’s a large percentage that is. Choosing peace over matriculated drama shouldn’t be new, but more women are finding they have no tears left to cry.

There are decent men, and I will not bash the opposite sex, as it does nothing for me. I wish hurting individuals seek therapy and work on themselves. It makes a difference. Pride…before the fall…

But you can’t force anyone to do anything.

So instead of turning inward, I refuse to allow anyone past my threshold. I’m very happy with where I am in my life. I have no desire for it to be ruined.
