…attached to that person. Kudos to my friend LaVon Thomas telling me to stop living in who I was and walk in who I am now. When and/or if I date it’s with an open mind.
I think the major change is that I’m quieter now. I’m a people watcher and I don’t feel the need to be the life of the part or to keep people laughing so my weight won’t be an issue.
