Practical Lessons I Learned from bein Outside
I officially come to terms with the fact that I'm who I used to consider lame. I'm no longer him. I can’t hang with the real ones because I can’t keep up anymore, nor do I want to. I’m not playing these stupid games anymore because I don’t want the stupid prizes that come with them. For example:
The idea of a person is usually more attractive than the reality of who they are, especially when you’re not in it for the long term.
I learned not to be having sex with multiple people as you’re trying to get to know someone else because you can’t evaluate either situation clearly, which puts you in a position of potentially missing out on someone who you really might like.
Some people are gross and don’t smell good….
I’ve learned that I should not play with women who like me and are interested for fun. I need to not only be honest but also consider that even if she is ok with the lack of clarity or being unsure to not take advantage of them because I’ll also get attached, and now it’s a mess, and both of our hearts are exposed to something false, dangerous and stupid.
It’s EXHAUSTING talking to multiple people….
I waste a lot of resources, time & energy when entertaining someone I know won’t be here in the future
Every encounter takes a toll on your soul…..the last thing you want is to meet someone you desire, but you’re worn down and tired
I’m too sensitive now to see someone I’m intimate outside with someone else and have to pretend I’m unbothered………That’s dumb
I’m more present now, so my feelings are getting involved, and I don't want to move backward by trying to be selective about when they can exist or when they can’t.
Don’t undo all the work & healing you went through with Jesus because you’re horny.
It’s ok forgive yourself
Give yourself a break.
