Have you ever felt like the substitute person? The one that holds the place for someone else until that forever person comes along? After watching "Elizabethtown" again and having it described to me again that way, I'm realizing that's exactly how I feel. Of the few people that I have been with, not one of them has stuck around long enough to see what I'm really about or if we could work out. They don't have to stick around. They already know that I'm just a placeholder until something better comes along. And sometimes I'm okay with that. I like my alone time. I like not always having to answer to someone. But after awhile, it gets lonely spending all your weekends alone and having no one to come home to at the end of the day.
When your roommate has a boyfriend and two other guys running after her, you have to wonder what you're doing wrong? How do you transition from being the substitute person to the forever person?
