Girls who claim to only like having guy friends: is it that simple?

Publié par Gaelle.R

when a girl claim she likes to only have guy friends I feel sorry for her, there's something different about having a great woman friend that a guy will never be able to give her. Guys are problem solvers and us women we are emotional beings, sometimes we don't want to hear solutions we want to vent and cry. A woman friend may cry with you and be there for you and her love is pure but some men who are friends with you may be thinking about getting into your pants.

Having only guy friends is dangerous because as a girl you don't have any real genuine friend, yes you may argue my boys love me they will die for me but once they get a girlfriend, you're no longer a priority. You think his girlfriend will let him hang out with you all the time? I know I wouldn't. Vice versa you think your boyfriend will let you hang out with the boys all the time? yeah, I don't think so. Having same sex friends build stronger connection and a deeper bond, there are some things you can't discuss with a guy; you can discuss emotional stuff but it's very rare that you feel emotionally understood unless that man is gay.

Girls who seek only male friends often love to be validated by men, perhaps their father didn't pay attention to them. They say they are trying to avoid drama with girls, but not all girls love drama! just pick your friends because that's what I do. I take my time to pick all my friends, and I watch very closely if their personalities match mine. 

in my opinion a girl who only likes male friends is a red flag.

the art of a routine.

Publié par Gaelle.R

I finally cracked the code!

I have so many things that I want to do throughout the day that there isn't enough time for me to do all of them after work. But I found a way around it, my saying is " a little is better than nothing at all".

For instance, after work, I have to rest a little, have a snack then go to the gym, cook dinner then rest a little, journal, read and watch some tv? there's not much time because my bedtime is before 11pm and I spend at least 2 hours at the gym. I used to skip journaling and reading just to watch TV, but I realized I was struggling with my vocabulary a lot more when I am speaking. when you don't read, you forget a lot of words and when you are speaking the words you are looking for may not always come up if you don't take some to figure what you want to say without using replacement words such as "like, thingy.." I need to read more to learn more descriptive words to use when I am speaking. when I am writing it's easier because I have time to think and look up the words I am looking for either online or in a dictionary. It should not be this hard for me to speak clearly when I already know so many words! but because I wasn't reading enough my brain was lazy! reading is a workout for your brain, it enriches your vocabulary. Lately I have been reading every night and it's been tough even though I love reading! because my routine was watching TV until it's time for bed and that's not good or productive at all. Journaling was also hard for me, but I have been journaling religiously every night since mid-january! now it's easier and my journal is almost full soon enough I will be buying a new journal. My journals have not been full in years, I always had 10-20 blank pages left at the end of the year because I love getting a new journal every new year. This year I will know what I did each day and what happened on what day, I love to go back and look how much I've grown or change :)

Having a routine that helps me with my journaling and my reading really makes me really happy. At first, I prioritize writing just 1 page in my journal but now I can write as many pages as I want! but as long as I write at least 1 page I've accomplish more than enough. Your routine should be small, don't give yourself a big task but rather start small because a little goes a long way. Remember that at first you weren't doing it at all so doing just a little bit is better than nothing!

more mental than physical

Publié par Gaelle.R

If I came on here and said I am not working out to have a nice body that would be a lie, but that's not all! it really does help with my mental health. When I skip the gym, I get really sad, and I have that uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach that I cannot shake until I get back in the gym again. when I am lifting weights and I am challenging myself I can literally feel myself get happier, I can feel my self-esteem rising! lifting heavier weights and feeling the burn while you are mentally telling yourself that you can do it build your inner strength you feel powerful after you lift something that was challenging. The muscles that you reward yourself with is the best thing in the world! better than anything else I've experienced.

The first time I saw my legs muscles or the deep line in my back along with some muscles forming I was over the moon because I've accomplished so much under 1 year in the gym! My body really transformed itself. I really don't understand why people spend thousands of dollars to get their bodies done when you can eat right and work out consistently, you will be happier trust me, and you will be healthier. when someone puts silicones in their body or whatever they use to fill up a specific area in the body there will be consequences and side effects. Most people want immediate results, and it doesn't work like that when you work out. It takes 6 months to see some results and up to years to see significant results, it all depends on how much protein you consume a day and how much you exercise during the week.

I think the biggest misconception about me is that my life is boring. I can assure you it’s not! Every day it’s something.

book of the month and podcast

Publié par Gaelle.R

Book of the month is Gone by Michael Grant; I will drop a podcast episode to review the book and rate it from a scale of 1-10.

It will be a fun podcast I am so excited to start reading this book tonight, I already have the ebook version, but I am picking up a copy at my local library later today. I love a physical copy of the book more than the electronic version, but I'd like to have both just in case I don't access to the physical copy. I will do more book reviews if anything else on my podcast.

To my beloved friend.

 

It pains me that I didn’t get to say goodbye or hear your voice one last time. You were always so patient with me, never expected much, never judged and always ready to give me all your love at any given moment. I will always remember you, I can never forget the warmth and kindness you gave me when I had nothing. I love you, until we see each other again.

 

Gone but not forgotten.

Individualism 

 

In a world where everyone wants to dress the same and act the same, please dare to be different. Someone that I think about while I am writing this is Emma Chamberlain I love watching her YouTube videos because she’s extremely different. Her art collection, her interest, the way she looks and how she acts is just so unique yet relatable. 

 

We should all have our own thing, we don’t have to love the same thing or have the same hobbies. If I could have plants that would be something I would look into, if I could collect miniature porcelain figurines I would have those but my cats would destroy all of it! I love my cats but at times I do wonder how my house would look like if I didn’t have them. I love weird people lol because I’m weird ! I love people who don’t take life serious, who love an adventure.

Facts about me :

For friends and love interest 

  • I can’t  pretend to like someone when I don’t. If I like you, you will know it. If I don’t  like you  I will most likely not even speak to you. If I love you, you will be the luckiest person alive. I am slow and meticulous. What you think you know about me is only the surface. I have many layers and only those who are very close to me will know me on a personal and deeper level.
  • I do not settle. I am never desperate for love. At the same time, I take love very seriously. If I commit, it’s for life unless my man does not respect me. Then I will walk away but only after trying my hardest to work on the relationship. I am least likely to cheat in a committed relationship. If I “ cheat” which that word don’t even exist my vocabulary , it means I don’t  value you. It means I am already done with you but if I am I will tell you before I move on with someone else. Or, I may do it simply to teach the person a hard lesson which is do not take me  granted but it will never get to that point because I will have the last laugh another way. 
  • I am loyal and will give my life for those I love and care for. I will not leave my  man because life happened. I am not fickle. I am level-headed and can objectively review any situation without getting my personal feelings intertwined.
    • I don’t give my love to just anyone. I am loyal. I will stand by you and I am kind and generous. I am also not a showy woman which allows whoever I’m with to feel appreciated. Once I let you into my inner circle you will experience a beautiful experience that is like no other.

I can't

Publié par Gaelle.R

It's bad.

No one died but I am sad, and I actually want to die, you may be wondering why? well, nothing happened it's just my period is coming next week, and I get a lot of mood swings before it finally decides to arrive. You may be wondering why are you making a big deal about it because I've had my period for years? well, I am shocked each month I am depressed because I am getting my period, I never talked about that here because I didn't feel comfortable to share but after I saw cases of so many women attempting to commit suicide before their periods I thought I should shine some light on this. You know what's funny? as soon as my period shows up, I am happy again even if I am in pain, but I am no longer unhinged.

what are the symptoms?

for me I get extremely sad, unsure about what I want, angry, not confident, even more shy, quieter and my face looks pale. I am not as excited to do the things I love doing, I eat a lot or not at all, I write less, post less on social media (I don't use social media like that in fact I hate it, but I do love watching funny videos). 

what I need?

A friend who will not judge, a friend who's nice to me... I am very vulnerable and tearful. I even want to cry right now.

but don't get it twisted after all of that I am back to my confident self and breaking hearts :)
