Been kind of a mixed week. My reusable water bottle got stolen, dude was being a dick and drove very close to me like he was gonna run me over while I was trying to cross a crosswalk and dealing with major anger and anxiety issues.
On the bright side, I seem to be getting over a lot of my social anxiety and trying to build real connections. Especially when it comes to women. Becoming friends with this really nice and pretty lady who I work with. Due to a bad experience that happened to her, she said she wasn't really ready to go back into the dating game. And frankly, I'm okay with that. She's one of the nicest people I've met in a long time and I don't want to ruin anything. No idea what the future will hold, but I don't want to worry about that now.
Just trying to accept my current single status, my general awkwardness with women and learn to love myself. I know that sounds cheesy and stuff like "Self Love" and "Self Care" have been co-opted by the terminally online crowd, but it really is important to learn to accept yourself as you are and celebrate what makes you you. It's fucking hard as hell, but with God, anything's possible.
