Frustrated AND Single

This is a totally different vibe from what my normal blog is. But I think it needs to be said. I am not a relationship coach, therapist, married (yet *wink*) or anything else.

No matter where you land on the spectrum of singleness, don't be afraid to ask questions. Which brings me to my first point.

I graduated with my Masters degree, I got ordained at my church again, and I got engaged. All of that happened and I was grateful for every second. I cried when I got my degree because it was the first major step I took to chasing my God given dreams. I was in Buffalo, NY by myself struttin
