People are always telling me that I will find someone who is right for me. Someone who will respect me and not be intimidated by my brains, success of flirty personality. They say he will treat me right and not lay a hand on me in anger. They say a lot of things.
My bestie Allison said that people say that because they think that is what I want to hear. The truth is that I don't want to hear that. Seriously.
For the first time in over a decade, I am truly happy. Each day, I get out of bed and look forward to an amazing life filled with meaning and love. That to me does not mean "a man" to complete me. In fact, I feel complete.
Every time someone tells me that I will find that person, I actually feel a little cr@ppy. I don't feel incomplete. There is so much love in my life. My loving family and my amazingly wonderful friends make me feel complete in that way. I have no doubt that people love me and that I am lovable beyond belief.
The thing is that I feel complete. There is nothing missing from my life. Nothing lacking. Nothing lost. If I found a great friend who I wanted to spend my whole life with then I would but I certainly don't need that.
Please don't tell me what I need to hear. Just accept that I'm happy and be happy for me. Please.
I love you all and appreciate your help. Love me for who I am.

Amen. Totally get what you mean.
It's like people can't accept that you are happy where you are right now. Like you're putting on a 'brave face' or something. Bleh
Accept and surrender with the what is. Happy for you Mana, good work.
