Wanted: BFF within a 30 mile radius


So I am sitting here with exciting news about a 'tidbit' of my day with no one to really share it with. Not information I want the world to hear, yet I am so bubbly with happiness that I can't contain myself. I posted one snipp-it on Facebook, yet there is more that I would love to share. I have several good friends; however only two people I have considered my best friend. Both live very far away! They didn't always live that far, yet somehow the course of time has pulled them in a different directions or in one case pulled me in another direction. Needless to say, it has left me BFF-less. So what does a girl do... I share with my hubby. Girls if you are reading this... it was NOT the best move! Guys if you are reading this, learn to be, no not be... just ACT! excited about girly stuff. So I have this bubbly giddy thing that has happened to me (times 2) in this single day. One that a BFF would 'get'; however my husband would NOT get. So it leaves me less than fizzy... more like FLAT! Yes this is me talking in soda terms...

ok so here it is... and I am not sure I can even say it the way it played out. In a nut shell, I got two pretty awesome compliments about my looks. My looks meaning I have worked my bootay off for the last 6 months and have lost quite a bit of weight. I deserve for SOMEONE to notice and mention it, right?!?!?! I will admit that maybe, just Maybe my hubby was not the best person to express my enthusiasm about other guys complimenting me in various ways. (oopps did I forget to mention that part, well yes it was 2 different guys at two different times today) So there out for the world to hear because my BFF who is 1000 miles away didn't answer her phone. Not her fault.. she was busy I am sure. But still.. now I am FRUSTRATED that I shared it with my man who is, let's just say, less than excited about it. (go figure) A girl needs a compliment from somewhere!!!

Thanks for posting... it sucks not to having anyone physically close to share things with.

Congratulations Shantay! You certainly deserve someone noticing your hard work! (Although maybe it should have been your husband doing the noticing - heehee.) I understand the needing to share something, and the husband who doesn't share my enthusiasm...and also the husband who doesn't notice things either!! ;)

Thanks for all the understanding Abby! It can be challenging sometimes. However I remain focus... just like you!
