a text i wrote to a girlfriend ...

So man troubles! I text my girlfriends about other things too (no really I do!) but my friends and want awesome relationships with our men and so who better to ask for advice than a girlfriend who's been there and done that?

So that's what this text to my girlfriend is all about. She's in a new, live-in relationship which always requires a few "adjustments" (nice way of saying "what the f*ck am I doing?! Have I made a BIG mistake? I think I'm better at being single").

And well you see I was there too, only just over 2 years ago. 

Here's the background:
I moved up to Thirroul from Melbourne because I'd found love! I could chat to my Melbourne girlfriends over the phone but pretty much I knew no-one up here. Started a new job, lived in a new house, with a new boyfriend. No girlfriends, no family (other than over the phone) so you could say I had to make a few "adjustments". 

So when my girlfriend text me in distress I wrote her a text that I would have liked to have received from myself 2 years ago and so I thought I'd share it with you too x

my advice to my younger self helped xx

I hope my advice to my younger self helped you too!! 

I wish we could write a text to our younger selves. Often I will sit in meditation and go back to a time that I needed support or advice and I whisper like an angel into my ear what I think I need. Or just give myself a hug. Whether or not it works on some quantum time-space level, who knows?! But it makes me feel better so that's all that counts. You should try it!

So yeah what about you? What advice would you give to your younger self about your relationship or relationships past? I'd love to hear about it in the comments below. No really I would LOVE to hear it!! It's like my favourite thing to talk about!!

And if you never, ever want to miss out on future texts to my girlfriends make sure you've signed up for my updates below xx
Can't wait to hang out again but until then ...
allow true love to arise
be "warts and all" YOU
stop doing stuff and start just being
sit back and allow answers to come to you
have more chai with your girlfriends
open your eyes to the bazillion blessings around you
and cry more
xx

Wow Mish this is amazing! So beautiful! I would definitely tell my younger self your point about how this is a journey between you and you! All my relationship fears come back to self-love and how I don't feel enough sometimes and this is so important to remember, to really drill it down and find out what's really behind the fear. Loved it xx :)

Thanks Aimee xx and ohhhh you're so right about self love! For me self love is soooo much about loving and accepting the "shit" stuff about me like I wrote in my text to my girlfriend :) I often lose my personal power when I try to either pretend that I'm all "perfect" or when I spend hours beating myself up when I stuff up in my relationships!! I think my new mantra needs to be "hey, I'm Mish and sometimes I'm shit" bahahaha

Wow! This is amazing.. What an honest, warm & wise message to send back to your past self. I love that idea.. :) We are ruled by time in this world, but what if every now & then we take time out of the equation, and all we have left is just ourselves and our experience .. then maybe those warm loving words can still work to heal the hurts that our present selves still hold onto? I am so glad I signed up for your posts Mish - this message has spoken volumes to me! :) If I were to talk to myself a few years back (& a few guys back) I'd say this; Find delight in the silent moments. Enjoy the process of finding that balance that comes with new relationships. Acknowledge and appreciate that yes, the "honeymoon period" is in fact, for a certain period of time. But above all, ask for what you really want. Thank you for this awesome post Mish! xx

I'm so glad you signed up for my posts too Kristy!! I'm so glad this one particularly resonated with you :) and I love your idea "maybe those warm loving words can still work to heal the hurts that our present selves still hold onto" what a great way of explaining it!! I'm glad you also think the honeymoon period is for a certain amount of time ... often I still resist that haha :) xx
