Mikey Scott Mikey Scott life by me’er. comedian. pretty thankful guy.

Life By Me’s Content Editor, Mikey Scott, gets to hear stories from people around the world creating meaningful (and pretty darn fun) lives for themselves. And he thinks that’s pretty neat. [www.mikeyscott.com]

Five years ago I met the love of my life. Two years later we got our own apartment together. Two months after that he met the love of his life. Guess what – it wasn’t me. (And cue the violin).

When we finally called “time of death” on our relationship, I was devastated and angry. I manifested my anger in a way that I am still trying to forget. I went out with friends, and I drank. Then I drank a little more. Then I did something completely unforgivable. I drunk Facebook posted. A lot. Yes, we were the tacky ex-couple who chose to involve our entire social media community on our charade.

The next morning I frantically deleted my activity, but the damage was done. Some friends reached out to support while I’m sure many others thought, “Who the heck does that on Facebook?”

There was one friend in particular who reached out. Moe. To be honest, we weren’t even great friends yet. As we quickly got closer, he called again one day to tell me about a job he was trying to help a friend fill. He knew I was feeling the financial slap that comes with going from sharing rent to going solo. If you don’t live in Los Angeles, rent is approximately the cost of a nice pad in Middle America, multiplied by a bazillion or so.

The job was working with the founder of a website. That founder was Sophie. That website was Life By Me. As I’ve grown with the company, I’ve learned more than I ever anticipated from Moe’s initial phone call. I’ve connected with yogis in New York, chefs in London, poets right down the street, and everyone in between. I’ve made friendships that will extend long beyond the ping of the love gone awry.

While a great wrap-it-up lesson to this would be to be patient and don’t fret because things always happen the way they should, we all know that’s a whole lot of easier-said-than-done. So fret less. Have a little more patience. And thank god for the friends who swim through the sea of posts in your online Amanda Bynes breakdown to lend you that helping hand. And if you have a chance to be that helping hand, do it.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to find my pal, Moe, and buy him a frozen yogurt. No one ever posts inappropriately on Facebook after froyo, right?

– Mikey Scott
