Rejected again

No post today. Well, just this short explanation. I was rejected by a friend I asked to be in a relationship. I wanted a romantic relationship with her but, she isn’t in the place in life to do so. Sometimes that happens.
She’s still a blogger friend. We remain friends with boundaries and a clear platonic blog friendship. For now, I need a break from her site…
So, this is all I can do. Write.
I feel like I’ve been cursed in the month of February with dating.
At least this time, I handled it maturely. So I have that going for me, at least.
Maybe I’m just not suited to do so. I feel like quitting it entirely. I’m 36 going on 37, and the whole dating experience is just painful rejection with tiny glimpses of success that are squashed.
Healthy romance feels like a fantasy.
I hate dating.
Whatever.
Saturday night edit: Heart break sucks.
Here’s the thing. I don’t think ya have to seek out. Romance will find ya. Work hard, play harder. Volunteer. Laugh. Share. Find some way to help somebody. You get to choose who. Have fun even when life is crap. It’s up to each of us to make life worth living. You are smart. You are courageous. You just be you. We do not ever give up.
