I'm a Heartless Bitch because I am able to state how I feel without being afraid to offend people. I understand the difference between expressing my feelings and being abusive or mean, and I know that this is not as common a trait as it ought to be. I've learned well from my previous mistakes in life--having had one bad relationship was enough for me. I spent a great deal of time single and enjoyed every moment of it, except for the times when I'd have to explain to people without self-esteem WHY exactly I enjoy being alone. I am currently in a relationship. I got involved with this man because he is respectful and capable, and allows me to spend my own time in my own way. I have a better-paying job than he does right now, and he does most of the housework. If that changes it will still be a strong connection with mutual respect and support. Many of the women I know are in unsatisfactory relationships, and I think they dislike my (asked-for) advice, which is to spend some time deciding what an awesome life means to them, and then pursuing it. If your life is full and meaningful, your friendships and relationships will be the same. But you've got to have meaning and depth of your own before anything worthwhile will or can happen as far as relationships are concerned.
If being concerned with my own creativity, work, and education above my relationships has made me a Heartless Bitch, then I'm proud of the label.
