I’ve had plenty of people in my life tell me that I should write a book about my life.
When I take a step back though, I don’t know if my life is that interesting to read.
Living through it, sometimes I feel like I wake up each morning to see what is going to happen in the next episode in the real-life reality show that is my workplace. Nothing but drama, drama, drama. If I were to write about the things I’ve seen, heard and experienced at my workplace, I honestly think it could be an ongoing series. I’ve been there 12 years so there’s plenty of content. Sometimes I wonder if there are hidden cameras and wonder if this is really a reality show? Hmm..
But as for the rest of my life? There’s not much to tell. I went through a Tinder dating phase in 2018–2019 but not all were great dates and I think that if I were to write about them, they would be more of a precaution to women to know that there are men out there who prey on naive women who are hoping to find love on Tinder. Sure, that sentence just came out my head, but there are plenty of women out there who know about Tinder’s reputation, and still hope that they will find a guy who wants to persue a genuine, long-term relationship with them and doesn’t just use them for sex or a one-night-stand.
I was one of those women. Tinder seemed to be the best option for me personally because it was so easy to interact with my matches. But like I said, not all of them were great.
Aside from work and relationships, I suppose there is also the family and friendship debacles I’ve had to face during my 33 years of age. Moreso during my adult years, than anything else, which I suppose is better because getting older has also shown me that with age, I know what I want and need and when to speak up for myself when things go haywire — in every aspect of my life.
But again, surely there are other people in the world who also have these experiences. Why would mine be so intriguing for someone to read?
And the only other question I have for myself is, how do I start?
