“I meet em everyday”

“I know your face. I know your name. But I don’t know you.”

I’ve traveled from city to city, state to state, and I seem to just attract the same strangers. Not saying it’s a bad thing at all, but it usually ends in a similar outcome. Drake said “I heard there’s nothing new, except for someone new”, but sometimes that someone new was similar to the last someone new. The only common denominator is the person they are attracted to. So does that mean that person has to change something about themselves to actually get “someone new”?

I recently had a few conversations with a couple of my closest girls about how we tend to have a common pattern of the men in our lives. This I have known for quite some time and have definitely tried to change it, but I ignorantly continue the cycle, always hoping for a better end result. I just find it funny that I knowingly see the similarities and now what used to make me naively intrigued just makes me laugh. The dreams I used to be fed have now turned to signs of BS and fraudulence. In actuality, these same strangers have actually helped me to learn about myself and a lot of shit has changed, so I thank them for that.

You learn from experience and it’s up to you how the story will end. There’s no rush to find that “PERFECT STRANGER”. Just remember that Real Eyes, REALIZE, Real LIES…. And to all the future strangers, don’t say what you think people want to hear. Please know that it’s real simple, JUST BE REAL and BE YOURSELVES.
