Dear Diary & Listeners,

The flood gates are open and the reflective thoughts are pouring in. 

 

Values. I've been talking a lot about family lately, but what about unique values I desire in a man? I know you'll be shocked to know...(sarcasm) that every single one of these unique values are dead opposite of Dick. 

 

It feels good to think for myself again. I finally have my present and future back. 

Le Sigh...

 

Now I just need to sleep more. 

 

Here's a few Unique Qualities I pulled from a list I wrote tonight...

 

Dick: Untrustworthy & Secretive

I Value: Mystery & Enigma

A mysterious aura adds an element of excitement and intrigue. I value a man who has the ability to keep a sense of mystery while still being open and vulnerable.

 

Dick: Weakness & Inability to Cope

I Value: Strength & Resilience

There is nothing sexier than physical and emotional strength to navigate challenges. A man who is humbly resilient in the face of adversity, reflecting a capacity to overcome obstacles.

 

Dick: Absence of Protective Instincts

I Value: Guardian-like Qualities

A man with protective instincts are key. Having the willingness to be a guardian and support in times of need. A sense of justice and the ability to stand up for what is right.

 

Dick: Disconnect from Spiritual & Emotional Depth

I Value: Spiritual Connection

My person has the capacity to connect on a deep, spiritual level while maintaining strong emotional intelligence and empathy for understanding and support of shared inner growth.

 

Dick: Predictable & Monotonous Behavior

I Value: Unpredictable Allure

An element of positive unpredictability that adds excitement to the relationship is a must. The distinct allure of this person should keeps the flame of passion perpetually burning. 

 

In Episode 15 I am officially homeless. Well- for a few days anyway. After Dick deploys an atomic bomb in Las Vegas, we are forced to seek refuge in Illinois. (Cue the Country Music) All is going well...I feel my nerves calming and an overwhelming sense of safety being around my family. 

It's short lived. SHOCKER. 

And guess what..? Dick recants yet another one of HIS decisions. You're going love Episode 15. Grab your popcorn y'all.

 

BEHOOVE THIS.
