So after being in 4 relationships spanning 14 years, and all of them being deeply unsatisfying in one way or another. I'm making the decision at 30 years old to stay single for good and focus on my DD and businesses.
I've heard it all. "Oh, but you are still young" and "it's not you, it's them" and "you need to work on yourself, so you don't attract the wrong bloke" and, "but you need to love yourself more".
The fact is, I think I'm a lovely, kind hearted person (probably too kind). And I have a lot of respect for myself these days (maybe not so much in my younger years) but I guess you live and learn. The heartache and pain I've suffered by being in these relationships was just not worth the "good times". The endless compromising I've had to do, and after recently dipping my toes back into OLD, I can see that it is rife with game players...
I just don't trust men now. In a way, I'm sad that it has got to this point but I know deep down this is it for me. I'm simply tired. I feel like that the only way I can live my life with clarity, happiness and an intact soul, is to be alone. Does anyone else feel like this? Would love to chat.
