What was the hardest personal goal you’ve set for yourself?

View all responses

The hardest goal I set for myself and accomplished was not settling for mediocre when it comes to love. I knew true love existed outside of the movies. A love where you feel fully seen and there is no compromise. A love that is addicting. A love where he doesn’t watch porn. A love of mutual obsession. Despite how hard some had tried in the past, it was not a deep enough love. I always felt like I put more in then what I got in return. I think this is a common experience for women. Complacency. It’s sad and it doesn’t have to be that way. If you want to start over, in even the smallest way, you should listen to that feeling. Humans are the only animal that ignore instincts and feelings. We let outside voices play a factor when they shouldn’t. Your voice should be the only one making decisions for you. As I write this, he is asleep on my chest, doing his little snore and I feel so complete. I wish everybody could feel this way.
