A Raw Emotion

Does anyone out there have moments where you just want to be taken care of? Like when you're sick or you had a bad day? This is the problem with being so far away from home. I really wish I had my mom or dad to check up on me right now... like they used to do when I was young. I don't know if I'm just being a baby or not, but it feels a little bit weird to go through an unfortunate situation and not have anyone here. These are one of those times where it would be perfect to have a boyfriend. I know I'm a big girl, but sometimes I need someone. Right now, I need someone.

I think we all have days like this. I can't tell you how often I take my son to my parents' house and we both crawl in the bed with my mom. God did not create us to be islands unto ourselvs. Human contact is extremely important. No... You're not being a baby. You're being human!

This is Alisa, btw...

i agree with Alisa. i've been experiencing this feeling more often than not lately. it's okay to feel this way and i'm learning to accept and embrace these moments as it reminds me i still have feelings and a desire to love and be loved even though there is no significant other in my life. i'm blessed to have friends that will be there for me though. i guess it's just a matter of reaching out so they know i need them.

i hope you feel better soon. God bless!

Man...I wish I would have known...like Miss alisa and blu...we ALL have those days...there have been plenty of times where I just call my mother and just talk for hours on end, or just go over to get a hug...then there are times when I want to be a BIG girl and handle it on my own...we all have those times, that doesn't make you a baby, that makes you human...we all need to be taken care of from time to time and that's alright

It was a moment of weakness ya'll! I'm back! lol. No but seriously, I do understand that having feelings like those are human and that it's okay to feel that way. I try hard though not to dwell on that feeling so as to keep my head above water. Perhaps I might let myself go a bit more though if I was around people who could help build me up.. But in the meantime, I gotta keep it moving. Ya know!

I know how you feel. I live in Maryland and my family lives in North Carolina & Michigan. I have no family in Maryland or anywhere near where I live. And I've had those moments where I wish I lived closer to my fam. I guess that's why my friends and I are so close and like family.
