So, I was told today that I am high maintenance. Ha ha... This makes me laugh, since I maintain myself and ALWAYS have. I have NEVER had a man pay my bills, buy my cars, pay my rent or my utilities. And very rarely have I even allowed a man to pay my way somewhere (dinner included).
I don't understand the intimidation of a female being confident and being able to care for herself?? Is it that the ability to have control over a person is lacking if they are confident?? Personally, I'd rather have someone in my life that WANTS to be there, instead of because they have no other option. I don't NEED a man that is for dayum sure. This truly makes me smile inside, and tells me that I must be doing alright for myself. I refuse to be someone's dependant/burden, because when it all comes crashing down, I only have myself to truly depend on.
I have wasted time in bad relationships staying only because it was all I knew. I held onto relationships that were knowingly faulty with the ridiculous hope that things were going to get better (of course they never did). I have learned that all this was a waste of time. Except for the lesson learned out of this.... No longer will my time be wasted in a non-functioning relationship, friendships included.
Maybe I am too picky, maybe I am just a Bitch, or maybe I just know what I want and what I don't. And so far, no one has had the ability to prove they are worth more of my time than a moment here and a moment there. If you fall into this category then there's your truth!!
I refuse to be the homemaker and after 10+yrs of marriage the decision is made to split, then I am left with NO skills to be able to provide for myself and any possible children. And I don't understand how someone would be comfortable doing so, I suppose it works for some people. And for them that is great, not something I'd ever be comfortable with. Life is unpredictable and we must always be prepared for the unexpected to happen.
I will NOT apologize for my strengths. Why do so many people find this intimidating?
