[1]When friends fall madly in love, I invoke my 3-month rule, to make sure I give them adequate space for the “gaga” phase. But after 3 months, if a newly coupled friend doesn’t have quality time for me, I start to get huffy.
One of my closest single buddies is occupied with a promising new romance, and I’m thrilled for him. With the pressure of the holiday season in full swing, I’m also feeling sorry for myself. I checked out a previous post, 7 Ways To Dig Yourself Out of a Bad Mood [2], and realized I must’ve been in a really good mood when I wrote that, because right now, NONE of those ways are working. I’m going to try hugging my dog.
Thanks to all who entered our first CONTEST [3], Surviving the Holidays When You’re Single. Winner(s) will be announced on Christmas Eve.
