Life with a Broken Heart

It hasn't even been 4 months and my ex boyfriend is already married.  Granted he ran back to his ex before me.  Yet...  I have to wonder if it will ever happen for me?  Do I really not want to?  Destined not to?  Or is my job in the way of it?  I am a Flight Attendant, Airline Stewardess, Fly Girl...  whatever description you want to use to define me.  I am gone from home for days at a time.  Yet, I am home for just as many or more.  There is some misconceptions about the good and the bad of the job.  Yet I have been mostly single since I started my job almost 13 years ago.  I don't have a man in every city.  Good Lord that would be exhausting.  I need my sleep on my overnights.  Yes, pilots flirt with us, but most of them are either great guys who love their families, total dorks, or single for a reason...  Plus at this point in my career, if I was destined to be with a pilot, it would've happened by now.  Dating outside the industry has it complications. Trust..  You have to trust me to be faithful to you when I'm gone.  I have to trust you will be faithful to me when I'm gone.  If I wanted to have a crazy wild life and party or hook up on my overnights, I would NOT have a boyfriend.  I am extremely loyal to those I love.  I am 41 years old.  I don't want or need games.  I don't want to sponsor you.  I'm not looking to be sponsored.  I want an equal partnership of love and respect.  I want the freedom to be me, as I would expect you would as well.

I know I need to have faith that it didn't work out in the past because there is someone special for me.  When the time is right.  In His time, not mine....  I know there are a lot of things I need to work out in myself before I can be, just be...  It's hard work building up your self esteem.
