Twenty-Six
I normally start writing these birthday blogs in February when I have half of an age behind me and half to go. I start thinking of what I've learned during this age, what I can tell people about when I look back at this number in my life. This is the first time in the four years of birthday blogs that I've been struggling to find a way to explain the last year. Struggling to articulate what 26 has been like. This was a really hard year. But here we are. Here's 26. I still hate dating. I don't hate men (most days), I hate the process of dating . It is weird and I'm weird and I just hate it. It is truly exhausting. Everyone is like "Dating is fun!! So fun!! You get to flirt and meet knew people and get free dinner!!" And I'm like…have you ever been inside my brain? Should I text him or not because he hasn't initiated texting in a few days but maybe he needs to know I'm interested and I don't want to play the game ...
