Whatever it was, we've all been there and it's not a fun place to be.
Heartbreak is never easy but it does give you a great chance to do something not all people ever try: Get to know yourself.
I've been single for a long time.
I'm picky and the last guy I let in broke my heart so I'm not ready to let myself get that raw again.
But it's given me a great chance to get to know myself.
I've read a lot of articles about dating yourself and I love it.
What really got me into it though was Taylor Swift.
Celebrity culture is bigger than ever with the Internet and bloggers, makeup guru's and singers all over YouTube. Anyone can become famous with a bit of dedication and a computer.
Taylor Swift is my idol.
I follow everything she does and appreciate it all. She's like a close friend. Her music has helped me through some of my most difficult times and I'm forever grateful for her.
During the time between 'Red' in 2012 and '1989' in 2014, Taylor went through a big image change and she made it clear that she was the girl who 'rarely had a boyfriend' over the one who always did. She focuses on herself, her music and her friends. She surrounded herself with strong women who empowered her and made sure her friendships had a positive impact on every person involved.
I wanted to be like that.
So I'm still trying to surround myself with women who make me want to be better.
And I've learned so much about myself.
I love to cook so I've been trying to expand on that. I'm reading a bit more.
I'm not saying I don't get lonely but I have incredible friends to help with that.
I'm enjoying being single for now. I'm 20. I don't need to rush into anything and getting to know yourself can be incredible.
Jessica
