You can’t plan your life on “what if’s“.

This is the first time in my life that I’m looking out and planning my life for me.

If you are in a committed relationship, there are always compromises.  As it should be.  I get that.  But I have spent way too much of my life focusing on the what if’s.  I’ll give you some examples so that you understand what I mean.

“I’d like to move from this side of the country to that side of the country.  But what if I met someone here?  Would I still move?”

“I’d like to own my own home so I can plan my retirement.  But what if I met someone and wanted to start a relationship with them?   Should I buy a house, being a single woman?”

It took me much too long to realize what I was doing.  I’ve been single and independent almost a decade now.  It has been a Huge adjustment for me.  I never dreamed that I would be single for this long.  I had Always been in a relationship and always thought I needed to be in one.

It dawned on me one day that I was putting my life on hold because, “what if“?

You can’t plan a life on “what if’s“!

Thanks for joining me on this journey! Penny ❤
