Goodbye to YOU!

I recently did something that I think for the first time in a long time made me realize who I am, where I'm going and what it is exactly that I want for myself and in my life. I let go of my very own Mr. Big. Carrie had a Mr. Big in the famous Sex and the City series and Im pretty sure that most of us ladies have our very own Mr. Big. You know..that one guy in your life that you are continuously pushed together with or drawn to?!...that's right, I let mine go. After trying for so very long to make things work, I was drained. Mentally, physically and emotionally. Running around in circles, chasing him, crying, complaining and simply being unhappy was no longer something I wanted in my life.

My life was moving at a fast pace and moving forward. I was making big career and life decisions and I was changing as an individual. I went from being this quiet and reserved teenager into a sassy, confident and independent twenty-something. Dating and being with my Mr. Big, as glorious of a feeling as it was, it made me feel like in the relationship department, I was taking two steps back. ALL THE TIME. I finally, took the time I needed and wrote down all the pros and cons (it really does work my friends!) ..and ta-da, there they were, right there in black ink ...there were more cons then pros. With the combination of writing everything down, everything that was going on in my head and my heart, I knew what I had to do.

I deleted him. Off of everything. No more contact. There wasn't any point. He was doing all the things he said he wouldn't do, he said he changed. Maybe he did. Maybe he didn't. But for me, this was the last time I was going to ever let him OR ANY OTHER GUY make me settle. I never settle in my career, in my education so why would I settle in another important aspect of my life?

He was gone.

And for the first time in a long time, I have no idea what is going to happen for me in that department of my life. With Mr. Big, I always knew he'd come back in a week or two or a month or two but this time, I didn't care.

Last week I made a revelation, I'm finally in a good place. I'm not mentally, physically or emotionally exhausted. I'm happy.

Ever let go of your very own Mr. Big? Or thinking about it? Comment. - Xo
