Sis, I feel you on the whole "feeling wanted" topic. I've been feeling lonely too, especially because all the people who I make time for don't typically make time for me. I'm more of an afterthought. Just because I like being alone doesn't mean I want to be alone all of the time.

Swear Ashley you hit the nail on the head. Everything you’re feeling I’ve been feeling and couldn’t put it into words. Ironically men take that type of honesty as too much rather than understanding we aren’t trying to control their life but very much so want to be an important factor in it.

Thanks for being transparent. Girl I’ve been crying damn near daily. My dad got his kidney transplant in early 2020 so I’ve been navigating caring for him while working from home. And it’s been hard because I can’t be around people the way I want to or enjoy me-time the way I want to. I think expressing your wants and needs is healthy, that’s the ,main thing I learned last year was to say what I need. It’s helped me manage my emotions a lot.

Your Vlogs have always been my one of my favorites is bc of how honest you are, and you are always perfectly articulating what so many of us feel. Wanting to feel wanted has such a negative reaction, but it's normal and I'm glad more people are expressing this. I feel exactly the same way about being alone and people assuming i don't need company. Something else that happens is people won't hit you up bc they assume so many other people are.

I feel where you're coming from on dating. If I were in that stage of my life again, I would Lori Harvey the situation up. Treat these men the way they women (within reason of course). Point is, I would date multiple men, have fun, and only narrow down the playing field when the right man has presented himself (i.e. demonstrated after a few months of casual dating that there is longterm potential, and that the feeling is mutual). I also would step out of my comfort zone in terms of type - which I didn't do in my younger days, and regret now. There has to be more than one high profile dating app out there when you can meet someone of your caliber. Once you start putting the right plan in motion, the universe will start presenting you options.

I am a beautiful, strong black woman with a lot going for myself and at the end of the day it's his loss and my gain. Just going from living with a person to understanding that I'll be alone is a weird step for me because even when not in a relationship I have never lived alone ya know. Like, I have my own place but someone is always around is what I'm saying and I don't know how to feel about it.
