Being Alone is really ok
Posted On 07/30/2007 21:37:59 by Sunshine1950
I think I’m almost ready to mark this as done. I’ve noticed an extraordinary increase in my confidence lately and I’m coming to believe that confidence, happiness and self love are all really facets of the same thing. Seems obvious, I know, but it’s one thing to know something and another to really feel it. I’m feeling it now.

Igrew up in a time where, being alone wasnt ok. I know many who are not comfortable being alone. I am comfortable with being alone. I have friends , I socialize, I am active. I make my own decisions and I dont have to worry what any one thinks. I loved being married and having that someone special sleeping next to me. That changed , and I have found, the stress level I had been under had left with him. Why do we as women think we cant do it alone (life). We can we dont have to settle, because we are afraide of being alone.We dont have to compermize our values, we dont have to worry what the world will say about us. we just need to relize we have have value and learn to be comfortable in our own skin. I am not putting men down at all, I enjoy their company, love talking to them. they make us fell good, make us laugh,they make very good friends.Some make awesome husbands and or lovers.
However there are some that
just want us to take care of them and their needs, with out ever taking care of our needs. As
women we learn to be caretakers & we give becuase we want to, but that doesnt work if your partner isnt giving back.Me I want the fairy tale, mean while I am ok being alone I wont settle, I want it all.

I enjoyed living alone when I was young. In the South there is/was pressure on a woman getting married or being labeled "spinster", and I was fast getting to that age. I got married and have been for 23 years. To be brutally honest: I would love to be on my own again. I was happiest then. I don't know if I could do that now, but who knows. Being on your own gives you the freedom to be yourself. You can have all the friends you want. And there will be a shortage of men. LOL Just take your time and enjoy this.
