Simply Out of Touch

I never realized that I was so out of touch with people to whom I was really close. I mean, I know I kinda withdrew for a while, but where did the years go? During the years that I was pretty much out of the "public" eye, most of my friends were getting married, finishing degrees, and moving away. Only those in my innermost circle had the "privilege" to deal with my sulking and mood swings during that time.So, you may ask, why did I retreat so drastically for so long? Well I had a rough few years health-wise. Seriously, I had to go under the knife a few times (more than I ever want to again in life). If you don't already know the details, then you really don't need to. Actually, that's part of the reason I "dropped off the face of the Earth". I really got tired of trying to explain things to people, so I stopped going out. That way it was just-End of Story.But it wasn't. I really hated the fact that I couldn't live the life of a normal 20-something. I couldn't really relate to my friends anymore because I wasn't really living the same type of lives that they were. I have to say, honestly, that sucked!Nowadays, my health is great (thanks to those multiple cuttings) and I'm back in the swing of things. Funny thing though, throughout this "withdrawl period," I still managed to continue to date (somewhat). That's getting into another blog though. Until later...
