You feel like you aren’t supposed to feel lonely.
You realize entering a relationship wont magically make all of your problems go away.
Youre a strong woman.

Hannah Busekrus
You arent someone whoneedsa man.
But sometimes, a man would be nice.
Youre allowed to be honest about the way youre feeling.

Youre allowed to want a relationship.
Youre allowed to experience loneliness.
Youre allowed to admit the single life is hard for you sometimes.
Being a strong woman doesnt mean youre emotionless.
It doesnt mean youre against the idea of relationships.
You dont have to lie to come across as independent.
Admitting youre looking for a relationship doesnt make you any less strong.
You dont have to hide what you want.
You dont have to apologize for what you want.
Even when youre a strong woman, being single can suck.
Staring at a blank phone can suck.
Going on date after date that leads nowhere can suck.
Being the only one you know without a boyfriend can suck.
You dont have to glorify your situation.
You dont have to hold back your emotions.
Complain to your friends on the phone.
You shouldnt feel like an imposter when those latter days arrive.
Wanting a relationship doesnt make you any less independent.
It doesnt matter which category you fall under.
It has nothing to do with your strength.
