Single Girl

In this episode Chronicles of a single girl, you will help me in analyzing my situation, whereas in the previous episode Why Am I Single, I talked about my survey,

When am with friends, I feel relaxed, we talk at length about almost everything, we laugh, I bully them and they bully me at times. Few days ago at work, Kay and Chidimma played a scene from Empire, Chidimma was trying so hard to play Cookie perfectly that she tripped. It was hilarious. I laughed so hard that my cheeks started to hurt, at that point I felt happy. I was so happy that I suggested that the three of us should rent a flat and stay together.

After work I went home, for an hour I could recall the events of the day. I still chuckled at the memory of that tremendous fall. The next hour, I felt the urge to share the events of the day with someone, someone other than my colleagues. I wanted to share the crazies that went on at work, to talk about how funny my colleagues can be and how annoying they can be at times. I picked my phone and scrolled down my contact list, I stopped at two contacts but reconsidered calling them. I didn’t feel like calling up a friend, instead I wanted to talk to that special someone that would understand my excitement. But then, I realized that there is no one. My excitement burned off and I felt alone. Yeah, it pains to be a single girl.

Its been 13months, 2weeks and 2days since I have been a single girl and its beginning to take its toil on me. Last night Kachi called, It was his birthday and he asked for a birthday gift from me, the gift he demanded was for me to give him the opportunity to make me happy, to be his girl. And just like always, my brain instantly decoded five reasons why that can’t happen. And honestly, those reasons were crab. Kachi is amazing, we have been friends for close to 3 years, he understands me and he has been a good friend, but I couldn’t agree to his proposal. Why? I can’t say.

I think am becoming too comfortable with my single girl status, It feels so peaceful, less dramatic and I have less responsibilities. Or maybe I have developed a phobia for relationships. Well, that could be it, I have been single more than I have been in relationships. My friend Leonard, nicknamed me The Loney Cat Lady. I can recall the life span of my relationships, my first lasted for a week and 5 days, the second was actually a week and the additional 3 weeks, we just passed time. The third, it was quite long but at some point it began to feel like a jail sentence.

So, you see I might be right when I say I have got phobia for relationships.
