If we are being honest. When it comes down to it YOU are the only one that you can rely on. Sure it's nice to have people but I've learned that it makes me stronger relying on myself. I don't borrow from anyone, ask any favors etc...i save money so I don't have to. And if I can't take care of something myself I hire a professional who can. I'm married and if I ask my husband to take care of something I will ask 3 times when he's off and if he keeps putting it off I hire someone. As an example my truck brakes were squeaking, I asked him several times can you take care of it he said it's just the brake pads I will change them , a month later, still nothing! I woke up early one Saturday and went straight to Brake Check and got it taken care of myself
Understandable. Sorry it played out that way

Yes. And when someone listens a bit i flood them with too much. Im still working on that balance.

That is why you love yourself first and foremost. You depend upon you. Got it?

@PoetryNEmotion very true, but there are some things you can’t do alone. And what’s the point of life if you have to just be alone in everything? You know what I mean?

@Justbekind24 Sure it is easier to be with someone. You have to find someone suitable not settle. I understand you. I know what you mean. I think most people are meant to be together.

There's a very good lesson in what you say, meaning that you should never put yourself in a position of having to rely on ANYONE except yourself for the desired outcome.

I was responding to NativePortlander after he trolled your post. He subsequently blocked me which erased his post to me but which left my post TO his grotesque response still intact.

Whats on your mind?
Yet when men provide reliability, many women will perceive it as his being a control freak or a narcissist.
