The feeling of wanting to be loved...

What's going on my lovely people! Feels like it has been quite some time since I have done a blog post... Well I mean it has been as the last one I done was in May but time flies right?! I have been extremely busy with work and my personal life that sometimes I do not find the time to take a moment to put something that I feel is worth posting and everything I do on my page I want to be as good as it possibly can be for you all. It is currently 11pm and I have been sitting here with my thoughts and thinking as I do. And I thought about doing a post about wanting love romantically. This is something I can honestly say I think about a lot on a daily basis and as you all know I love to post about things that are on my mind so let's get into this one!

Love really is an amazing and beautiful thing. We can receive love in many different ways and from many different people! From friends to family to romantic relationships with people. That is what I want to talk about in this blog post! Romantic relationships, of course like all other forms of love, like I said before they can be so surreal but also they can be some of the most hurtful, heart breaking and gut wrenching situations we can go through in our lives. It is something I have gone through a few times in previous relationships and to be honest it does really play on my mind a hell of a lot and I am not ashamed to say that as I really do wear my heart on my sleeve and I am an extremely emotional person (again I am not embarrassed of that either, I am now proud of that!)

Putting yourself under pressure! (Please don't!)

I think it is extremely easy for us to put ourselves under pressure or feel down because you feel you should or want to be at a point in your life were you are happy and secure with someone and have that feeling that can be one of the best feelings in the world, love. I do the same a lot! When I was a teenager, I would almost plan out where I would be in my life. For example, I thought I would be with "the one" by 25 and at least be engaged. For people for know me, I am very very far away from that. I have been single for over a year now. For people who are like me, and this is something I have been doing a lot of work on myself this year. Learning to focus on the now, what is going on in your life right now rather than looking so far down the road of your journey that you almost miss or forget what I going on around you now. I know many people (some of my really good pals infact!) who are extremely good at not worrying about this sort of thing and see it more as it will happen when it is meant to for us all! That is something that I try to remind myself a lot when trying to keep that positive mindset about wanting to be loved.

Trusting the process!

Right, I know this is something that I say a lot! And sometimes I even get sick of hearing it at times when I am feeling really low about things. However, it really is something extremely important to keep in mind for yourself especially when things are not going right in the love department for whatever reason whether it is that someone you thought you would be for a long time to just being on your own for a while and not finding that spark. It is all a part of our lives that we go through. So many people who have been in this situation have told me it always seems to be when you are really not looking for the love you want, that is when the right person seems to come out of nowhere! I say this to myself at least once a day about trusting the process, through my good days and bad. Because deep down I know that one day everything regarding the love I know I want will come along and I will be happy. The same goes for you amazing people. It will happen! Of course it will. Sometimes it can be easy to lose sight of this during our dark times, I know! But remind yourself as much as you can!

Things I try to focus on when thinking about love...

As difficult as it can be when you are missing this kind of love, here are a few things I do to try to do as much as I can to help me:

*Try to be Optimistic! The universe has something in store for us all. It is just a matter of time.

*The wrong or bad people that hurt or break you, are just lessons you need to go through to learn and grow, being one step closer to that special person.

*Learn more about yourself and learn from your mistakes too! Better yourself for you.

*Even though it is a completely different love, look for love in friends and family! As different as it is receiving love in different forms are always a great comfort.

*Everything really does happen for a reason! As cliché as it sounds! One day everything will be the way it should for you.

*Always, always, always love and be kind to yourself! The most essential one of them all!

I hope this short blog post has helped anyone reading who is going through any difficult situations regarding finding love or wanting to be loved romantically. Always remember, you are perfect as you are, never change for anyone, be yourself and I hope every single one of you who is waiting or looking for that perfect love finds it and it makes you so so happy. Every one of you deserve it and it will come I promise! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! And like I always say! Keep your head up and love as always!
