Erica: Mind You Own Business -- I Love My Rob!

After last weeks episode, it was very nice to get back home. Unfortunately, our girls' weekend in the Hamptons was extremely uncomfortable and stressful. I really felt badly Chanel had worked so hard to put the weekend together and have it not run smoothly. Casey stated in her blog that I had no regard for Chanel’s feelings. I would like to respectfully completely disagree with her. At this point, I really feel my life is none of her business and she should focus on her own and not talk about me and mine. I find it to be inappropriate. I admit I have done wrong things in the past, but if she and I are not friends, I think it is fair for me to say that she should mind her own business and not put her two cents in about my life. I do not discuss her life, as it is not my business. Casey made it very clear in the Hamptons that she and I are not friends. From this point on, I will remain to be sorry for how I hurt her in the past and will be respectful to her. I also want to make it clear that from this point on, anything she has to say regarding me and my life is purely gossiping and not right. 

Regarding the night at the club with Babs and Amanda, I had so much fun hanging out with them. Babs is such an amazing, BEAUTIFUL, funny, and smart woman, and I really adore her. She is so carefree and fun, and I love her! Amanda and I clicked right away and continue to speak to this day. I have really grown to love her so much. At the club, I may have come off flirty, but it was completely harmless. The weeks leading up to that night, Rob and I had been on and off and in a constant back and forth stage. When that guy asked me about hooking up with him or whatever he said and I responded, “We’ll talk about that later," I was honestly so tipsy and it was so loud at the club, I didn’t even hear what he said. He only walked me to the bathroom and back to the table. I only asked him to walk me there because people were coming up to me and annoying me. I was using him for cover to walk in front of me. 

Rob and I are still together and are in a much different place. We worked through our issues, and you will have to tune in to see more, but we are very much so happy. I love him very much. We have been through a lot of ups and downs, and relationships are not always perfect. I have learned a lot through our last two years of our relationship and we have grown so much together. I am so grateful to have Rob in my life. He is my best friend above all, and he means the world to me. 

I also want to touch upon Chanel’s situation and that I am so proud of her for not putting up with what her ex did to her. She is such a beautiful, vivacious, funny, and smart person. She really deserves a KING! I know she is going to meet her Prince Charming. I really also love how vulnerable she is and allows the world to see her crying and her pain. I appreciate how Sam, her father supports her and is there for her to lean on and talk to when she is so much pain. He is truly wonderful person, and Chanel is very lucky to have such a wonderful caring family whom only want the world for her.“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma -- which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
