Posted October 2, 2017 To The guys I ignored This weekend. It was My turn I am sorry but unless it was a ref request for a lady, I missed what ever I missed ... There are times when a lady just has to shut off her phone, Unplug, and just Relax. Ignore the World that knows you exist. . So I did. I kept my Apple watch on LOL. (A girls still gotta know the time ) I went to a Ball game, A hike and a Luxury Lonley Dinner candle side and more.. I did Me time! . I even left my Pup's out of it. (Very rare) It is not something to advertise about, its not a planned vacation Nor is it Done intentionally. I just needed this weekend for me.. Has anyone else ever done this? Did you feel guilty kind of like I do now coming back after a blissful retreat? I feel like I went AWOL with out permission 😎 How did you spend your "Me time"? How often is it fair to take a"Me time" Break? C' mon yall..Input.. Experience, Questions are all welcome.. Help Make my guilt go away! LOL 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2017 Everyone needs "me" time to stay healthy. Never feel guilty for taking care of your needs first. How else can you play happily if you're not happy yourself love?💋 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2017 Chrissy, "Me Time" is very important for the ladies. Don't worry about missing calls from gentlemen. They will call back. Your psyche is very important and has to be properly taken care of. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2017 I myself find as I get older I need more and more ME time- Honestly I am tired of taking care of everyone from employees to kids, ex's etc. Sometimes its a massage- sometimes its a FBSM- sometimes its more- sometimes its a hike in the woods- sometimes its a curl up on the couch all weekend and watch movies. Sometimes its the gym or yoga..... I can tell when my brain is telling me to slowdown and that's hard for someone who is always used to moving at warp speed- I will say current events do not help with keeping me sane in the membrane Mr Purple 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 2, 2017 Chrissy, Don't ever feel guilty for "Me Time!" Tell me more about the Luxury Lonely Dinner (PM)? Me recovering from a root canal, Monday morning. So far, no pain! Go away guilt!!! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) Guilt for what? A side hobby is just that, a side hobby. Do what YOU want to do I say, even if that means taking a step back or making time for other things you care about or have to do. I do not think anyone in their right mind could be offended.

Especially for me because I'm not always available , but I have the luxury of having my phone with me to check emails get instant alerts, post on threads , Etc.. it kind of seems like I am always available LOL I opened my mail this morning and turned on my phone and had so many missed calls and emails, I felt bad !! what if a guy has been looking at my profile for 2 months from New York, and this weekend was his only shot to meet me , and I just took off the clock with no warning... that's the kind of guilt and feeling I am having as I am returning emails. But yes I actually needed it .. I felt like I didn't connect a couple of times in the past few weeks with gentleman and I was having a couple of bad days I wanted to break the cycle 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I felt like I didn't connect a couple of times in the past few weeks with gentleman and I was having a couple of bad days I wanted to break the cycle This is what I call a Mental Health Day. They are so important to everyone. Truth be told, if I was knew I was coming to visit from out of state and I had been eyeing a particular lady for even a week, I would have made contact with her several days in advance. Remember the old saying "You snooze, you lose". That is what happens when you don't reach out in advance. Don't feel guilty about taking a mental health day. You are in a better place today because of it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, no and no. One of the benefits of being your own boss is the right - yes, right - to set your own schedule. Take a break whenever you need and budget allows with NO guilt. Until an appointment is confirmed and set you have no obligation to any guy no matter how bad he wants to see you. Even then cancel with advance notice if you need a break - no second thought. Hard job, take care of yourself!! JMHO 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think everybody should! No reason to feel guilty! (poor planning on someone's else's part is not your fault) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 3, 2017 It is so sad that in this culture you even have to ask. Your life (by definition) is your life, and you only get to live it once, so you better be doing what you think makes you feel whole. I unplug entirely every Friday afternoon and either go play by myself, with my son, or with a young lady. No plugging in before Monday. If a client wanted to reach me - too bad, it's my life, not their life. I have noticed that they all survive just fine. Go for it girl! Also, those glances in the restaurant were probably just because you were gorgeous - I love eating alone in restaurants, and if someone thinks that is odd, well then just fuckem. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 3, 2017 Right on sister! I take at least one Mental Health Day a week. If we don't take time to fill ourselves back up, we'll have nothing left to give. Glad you enjoyed! I even took a year off. I don't feel guilty at all. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 3, 2017 Sweetheart, never feel guilty for loving yourself! If a guy was looking at you for two months, then he should have precooked! I keep saying 10 more weeks! Then I’m going on a vacation. I’m leaving my phone, computer everything and just enjoying some me time. 10 more weeks til graduation! Then I’ll have a good cry, a bottle of wine and lots of smiling. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 4, 2017 I had a college reunion few weeks ago. I met up with all of my roommates from school. We had a blast! It is a must to be true to yourself!Especially in this industry! Being true to yourself is also being able to say no sometimes in life.Fort Lewis College class of 88'😀😀 Having other avenues of interest in life outside of what we do also makes for a well rounded happy and productive life 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
