Hey there, Anonymous! Let’s talk about something a bit personal today - our love lives. Or in my case, the lack thereof. I’ve been so busy lately, churning out article after article for my journalism gig, that romance has been put on the backburner. And honestly? I’m not alone. How many of you out there are sacrificing your personal lives for career ambitions or other responsibilities?
Don’t get me wrong, I love my job. Uncovering the truth and telling stories that need to be told is what gets me going in the morning. But sometimes I wonder if it’s worth it. My mom keeps asking when I’ll settle down and find someone, and my brothers just laugh it off, saying I’ll marry my career instead. Har har, very funny guys. But seriously, is it too much to want both - a fulfilling career AND a happy relationship?
I know some people manage to balance it all, but for me, right now? Forget about it. Between writing articles, attending community events, and helping out at local charities, there just aren’t enough hours in the day. And when I do have some free time, all I want to do is curl up with a good book or binge-watch my favorite shows. Sex? Romance? That feels like a luxury I can’t afford at the moment. So to all my fellow busy bees out there, how do you do it? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
