I have noticed some patterns and similarities in the situations I have come across. And since I’m on my journey of finding self I realize it may not be a problem with the men but a problem within me.
I was reading some random quotes and one of them said,
Just as we cannot see our own faces without looking into a mirror, we cannot know ourselves without looking at our relationships.
How true do you think that statement is? I thought about it and for me it makes sense. The relationships I enter into may not work because I’m seeing too much of myself in them and I’m running from the truth about me. It seems I’m looking at someone else to fill a void, and make everything better instead of searching for happiness inside of me. This would be why usually for the first six months of any new friendship I establish it’s all good until the truth starts to come out.
Going forward I’m learning not to run, I’m facing my fears and doing my best not to place blame on someone else for me not being happy.
It’s going to take a special person to see it, deal with it, and love me enough to not run when I get emotional.
