"To love yourself is the beginning to life long affair" ~Oscar Wilde
I have NO regrets in life. Regrets just lead to "What ifs" and what would be that point of that. I am very happy to admit that I have the strongest women surrounding me in my life. Unfortunately one does not think she is strong enough to handle anything. She is my godmother, and she has been through a bitter divorce and many other struggles in her life. She is an amazing woman. She has no idea what she has to offer to the world.
If there is one thing I would want anyone to take away from me writing this, it would be to love yourself. Until you begin to love yourself and rely on yourself, you will never find a man worth your time.
I did not have a "boyfriend" until I was 22. It only lasted 3 months but I'm glad it didn't go any further. I was taught as a young girl that you should be able to make yourself happy before you can make anyone else happy. Until then you shouldn't even try looking because all you are going to do is become someone, that someone else wants you to be. Yes I'm opinionated and I tell it like it is. I have morals and values that I am not going to give up just because a guy with green eyes and dark brown hair tells me to. That would be why the first "boyfriend" and I broke up. I also became someone I wasn't happy with being. I had given my all and become someone completely different. I stopped being strong and confident. I relied on him to tell me what I was doing and how I should feel doing it. When that relationship ended I was devastated, but when I look back now....it was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
I am now in a wonderful relationship with a man that I absolutely adore and can't wait to see where it takes me. I have also gotten back to who I am and who I'll always be, and he is happy with who I am. He won't try and change me. He knows that if he does, he'll lose me. I also know that nothing in life is guaranteed so I'm going to live every moment and appreciate every kiss/hug.
No Regrets.
