I've been single for long enough, and that hasn't came without it's ups and downs as you will get to know the longer you stay with me on this blog. I will always, always say that nothing I have or ever will achieve, will have ever been possible to accomplish without my girls.
So many women will tell you in order to be a strong woman and survive the hard times you need to have this career and that home, these shoes and that education. I call bull shit! I will say this now, friends are life. Who do you go to when you have just met some potential? The girls. Who do you go to to bitch, moan and put the world to rights when someone fucks you over? The girls. And who do you send them teeny weeny peeny pics that what's his face from Tinder sent you 3 minutes ago, you guessed it... the girls! Now we can all be keen for the peen or true to the fluh as you like, but end of the day you always need your nearest and dearest. The sad truth is that although not all relationships end in breakups, all relationships do end. But this is why you need the people who are around you when they have nothing to gain, because these people will always be there for you! It's so so important.
In order to survive you NEED a support system, and I fully believe Carrie Bradshaw when she said that men come and go but our girls are our soul mates. I am so lucky to have the group of crazy bitches I have around me, we can do our own things and always still be there. I know that if I fell out with these girls, and something bad happened, they'd be on my doorstep before I could say restraining order, because yes, they are insane!
Any strong woman knows that it takes strong women to build us up! I'm so sick of seeing women tearing each other down.
When I split up with my first boyfriend my friends were there - especially my best friend, because bitch please she never left!
When I stopped seeing a guy I was on and off with for 2 years (first f***boy hello!) my mates were there, to take my mind off him, to slag him off for the absolute nightmare bell end he was and laugh at him when he came crawling back time and time again and grew tits! (thanks for zooming in on the weight gain pic to make me feel better Meem).
When I ended up in hospital for a mystery problem, although my mum was here first, it was my best mate who came with me and stayed with me until 4 in the morning when she had to get someone to come to hers to stay with her baby, and my girls who were searching and searching online to try find what was wrong with me before the doctors could miss diagnose me!
And when I have had trouble with family it's my friends who have been there from me, my sisters from other misters, my little loves from above... my soul patrol <3
And if you don't have a good group around you, if you can't trust any of the people round you then trust me move on and find some people you CAN trust and rely on. They might not seem the coolest or the most popular, they might seem crazy or a bit weird, but trust me friends who truly have your back are really seldom found in this world. So when you find even just one good one, hold on to them because when the lights go on in that club and you need to traipse around town trying to find a taxi at bells in the morning with lipstick round your face and no shoes on, it wont be the girls who were posing all night trying to get guys attention that are going to walk in the shitty weather and make sure you get home safe. It will be the ones who couldn't give a fuck who else was around so long as you still had each other. Your vibe attracts your tribe, so keep your vibes and your standards for friends high, higher than the ones you put out for a good partner because these bitches are for life, and trust me, they are crucial to your survival.
Until next time my little poppets...
Don't be a stranger, and stay safe.
