I have always thought if I was just a little better, if I just did a little more for him and proved myself, I even was considering going on Jenny Craig because his mother did and he cannot stop talking about how gorgeous she is and I am no where near fat like her (not that there is anything wrong with it). I realize now I will never be good enough for him to care about. However, it is hard to think about not having him around at all, even worse to think about being totally alone especially since all my friends are married or almost there, and it is just another thing that stresses me out right now.
Really I am at a loss for what to do...Thank you all so much for letting me vent! |
I know how it feels to have all of your friends be married or engaged or having kids, but don't let that cause you to make a huge mistake in your life. You deserve someone who cares about YOU for YOU, the way Bruce does
Trust me, they are out there
You will NOT be alone forever. I always had this huge fear of never getting married or having kids, of dying alone or living alone forever. I had a fear of being that family member that everyone tries to set up with men, but you know what? It comes when you least expect it, and poof the fear is gone. Plus you need some time to really evaluate what you want out of life and out of a man. I think this will be so good for you Allison. I really do. Call me if you girl talk venting
You are doing the right thing for yourself.
