Loving yourself enough on love day to say "No!"

Feb 14, 2012

 Well I didn't expect to get hit with temptation the day after I decide not to drink or go out. My friend sent me a text saying her and a friend were going to the bar to hang out and socialize and she wanted me to come. I responded to her saying I really didnt want to go to bars anymore, at least for quite a while, until I got through a lot of my emotions. Her response to me was "You can go to the bar and not drink." It frustrated me that a good friend of mine would be that inconsiderate. I explained it's too tempting for me. I like having drinks and loosening up and relaxing. I can't go to the bar right now and not drink. I haven't proactively taken control of my stress and started managing it, so for me to go to a bar would be stupid. Rather than understanding and being polite about it, she just didn't respond back. -oh well.

I'm making this change for me, no one else. I don't owe anyone an excuse or explanation of why. I'm making decisions that are best for me now and I'm not really going to care about what others think. I have to take control for once and do something for myself. I deserve this and I will make it happen. 


*****I'm excited to be a part of this site. I look forward to writing in here now and feel like I have a release! It's a good feeling! A big thanks to everyone!
