This is for the girl who third, fifth, and seventh wheels like a pro.
This is for the girl who knows how to be alone because shes had plenty of practice.
For the girl who has learned to prefer a quiet night in reading to yet another failed first date.

For the girl who is starting to wonder if she might be her own biggest problem.
To this girl, I say: Dont let up.
Dont lower your standards for the momentary high that always leaves you crashing down.
Dont be shaken by the relationship patterns of those around you.
I know that in your independence, you may be fending off loneliness, and it hurts.
I know you probably feel like there is something wrong with you.
Why cant you just be okay with the momentary fling?
Dont let it go.
Keep your standards high and be proud of your independence.
Be the best single friend there is.
Stay true to your values and beliefs.
Dont go on a second date unless you truly like the person.
Keep filling your life and time with things that excite you.
And the most beautiful thing about this is that it is built to last.
Youve done the work, and so have they.
You wont accept anything less.
To the girl who is ready to break down, dont let up just yet.
