so, I spent saturday night awake to 3am creating a spotify playlist of 88 tragic songs. i'm convincing myself that this is fine, that this is normal. yes, freddos and chocolate waffles were harmed in the making in this tragic, but that's also fine.
sometimes, when we're single/going through a break up/ in a relationship and having a 'night off' we need to plug back into our inner soppy, sluggish selves, to be able to recharge and not be so emotionally cray.
so here are 5 reasons, decreed from me, Lord Samm.
1) fix you by coldplay was made by chris martin for me to cry at, okay? even on the fourth repeat.
2) same goes for the other 88 songs. (perfect mascara remover, save a fortune on make up wipes)
3) we need a period of time to remind ourselves of the person we were before a relationship. it's the reason someone fell in love with us in the first place. it just takes a cheeky bit of time before that can happen. waffles help this transition. honest.
4) it has to be done. right now you're all "no-one will love me again" but we both know that someone is going to find you, one day. and spend the rest of your life with you. you need this evening to be in your pants, without the judgement.
5) even your bestest of best friends get sick of the so sorry for myself act occassionly. you're still hurting? that's fine. you're meant too. just save it for yourself sometimes. be emotionally ready for yourself. this involves tears and chocolates.
6) (because 2 wasn't the real). we're not robots. we're only human. even me, who, can have a heart of stone (this shit is deep for me...) at the best of times, having a cheeky cry leads, for me anyway, to that cheeky chuckle afterwards, when you remember everything that is right about life: your friends, your job, your cat...
if not, find that something. being single isn't a punishment, it's a period of time in life. embrace it.
Samm. x
