You can be single AND in a committed relationship at the same time đ„Ž Let me explain.
In a committed relationship, youâre willing to fight for it. Give up competing relationships for it. Lose sleep over it. Talk about it constantly. Everyone knows youâre in a relationship.
But it may not be with who youâre dreaming ofâŠ.
đĄItâs with angerâŠtowards your ex.
đItâs with bitternessâŠtowards your boss.
âčïžItâs with resentmentâŠtowards your parents.
đ€ŹItâs with hatredâŠtowards your life.
đ”Itâs with hopelessnessâŠtowards your future.
đ„șItâs with disappointmentâŠtowards your past.
đItâs with frustrationâŠtowards yourself.
Any of these sound familiar? đ
If youâre single (AND in a committed relationship at the same time with any of the aforementioned), that committed relationship may be the reason youâre single đ€Ș Try that one on for size.
Maybe not. Being single doesnât indicate somethingâs wrong đ But being single IS a great opportunity to really focus on growth and grace (which, in my personal opinion, is always a great choice when it comes to navigating through life).
Itâs amazing to me how many people are COMMITTED to staying stuck in their past đ± Rehearsing the same stories. Reliving the same scenarios. Having the same conversations. Absolutely unwavering in their support of continuing in dysfunction, because theyâre unsure of what it would be like to give it up.
đ€ź And even though itâs so unhealthy and toxic, itâs familiar⊠which is so often more comfortable than change.
If youâre in a committed relationship, but wondering why youâre single, Iâll invite you to break up with toxic and focus on growth and grace.
Your HEALTHY committed relationship awaits đ„°
