2024 Word for the Year "In Love"
Setting a word for the year is like setting an intention. 2023 have been a year of healing for me, I've had ThetaHealing sessions, I've had ThetaHealing classes, I have improved myself emotionally & mentally, so I thought I am ready to be inlove with someone. I started dating quality men, really filtered and became open to dating foreigners. Chat one at a time, really choosing what attributes I like, If it's not feel good, I let go.
I've only dated 3 men last 2024, surprise! 3 men only! Before the healing, I was sort of like a serial dater, having the feeling that I need to have my one ASAP cause I'm getting old, so I was the one who initiates meet ups. I hate to say it but there was a feeling of desparation, it keeps failing even if I was such a giver, i make desserts, gives pasalubong (when after my travels), I even draw someone. What a male energy I've got! I'm shaking my head right now!
Great that after lots of dating, I realized the pattern, that's when I sought help and decided that I want to end it.
After breaking the pattern and doing inner works, I noticed that I have really changed, I've never initiate the meetings anymore, I'm not forcing things to happen, It's easier for me to move on if there was no more 2nd date. I have attracted such amazing men last year, those who fits my standards and they respect me. Even if we were not meant to be together, it feels ok, I don't get attached anymore. They only made me ask myself what's the reason why we have to meet, what's the lesson? I know I am beautiful, I have accepted myself with natural look make ups & simple clothes. But what I learned was masculine men are attracted to feminine women.
I started to wear sexy dresses, been having mani, pedis done, I am having laser sessions for my mustache, use face gua sha, I learned how to put make up properly, shape my eyebrows, be a girly girl and deymmm I AM LOVING IT. So fun to be a Woman! Thought that I'm already attractive being very simple (bit of boyish) 😁 But now I am more.
Actually, there was this event for work in November 2024, that pushed me to be my own make up artist cause I cannot bring one in Zamboanga but my colleague did my make up there. 🥰
I also met my one last date for the year, a very nice man that showed me "hey this is what it looks like to have a boyfriend!".. He was so perfect, he paid for all the meals we've had, dropped me off at my hotel on the first date, 2nd day went to my hotel to use the gym and waited for me to finished my work event, spent lots of time with me, 3rd day joined me and my colleagues on a beach trip, and ooohh la la, he have a washboard abs! So sexy and such a sight to my eyes! 😍 He wanted to drop me and my colleague off at our hotel after dinner, but I refused, we dropped him first. (Hah, the masculine in me still nudging). 4thday we went back to Manila & parted ways. We chatted for few more days and fades. So there, asked myself again, what's the reason? And I immediately answered, I need to work on fitness this time, the last thing I need (or maybe it is).
That man is a gentleman, he didn't take advantage of me. Said that he don't wanna hurt someone cause he's leaving anyway (heard from my friend).
I'd still see him on IG exploring Ph beaches and with few girls. Haha. And to be honest It was hurting me a little so I decided to have IG hiatus, that's when I created new hobby. Yoga & workouts that focus on stomach (cause he have seen my side flabs 😏), butt and legs. I FELL INLOVE WITH MYSELF MORE!!! So proud that I'm doing it consistently! 🧘♀️🥰
Everyday when I look at myself on the mirror, I feel so good! I'm so beautiful, with abs (when no breakfast)😆 . On progress but I can really feel it! 😘 I love you RIA. 😘
Thanks to my failed dates, my soulmate is very LUCKY!
I've had actually forgotten that I have that word(s) of the year but as I was reflecting on my year, this is what I've found I'm IN LOVE with myself!
I wrote it, meditated on it. MANIFESTED! 💜
P.S. Along side with new habits, been doing my monthly - derma sessions, annual - dental prophylaxis, general check up, flu vaccine & first time blood donation (will do this every 6months).
here is my before and after.
