And what was your part in it?


Settling.................a great man and person, but I didn't connect with him on all levels (something was lacking for me). However, since he was a great man/catch, I settled. Only to realize that nothing was going to change how I felt.

Now taking a personal inventory and taking one day at a time..............

One is not truly mature untill they stop being their own attorney and start being their own judge.


Wow...how did I miss such a provocative thread?

Alright Op. You ask for honest disclosure...I will disclose...

I kept a tallying sheet. I wanted to be sure, that I did not do more, spend more, love more, understand more, give more, than what my partner did.

And in the face of such scrutinization, they would usually fail.

Somehow, in some way, they would fail to meet my expectations, and I would punish them for doing so.

I would fail to see the gifts that they offered, until it was too late.

I sometimes would agree with whatever they said, even though I disagreed with what they said.

I would dumb down my intelligence, in order to make them feel "superior".

I have also argued vehemently, over minuscule things.

I cling to higher ideals, although, even a ladder cannot help me climb up.

I am so not perfect. The challenge comes, when I expect, the other person to see things exactly as I do...

my part in it was the insecure girlfriend that cant trust her man due to another ***holes treatment. i was the insecure girlfriend that accused my man of cheating. that was my role. i am trying to trust again, but once you've been burned-its hard. my temper can make me say some razor sharp comments that apologizes cant fix. i wanted to know who all the slutty females he was adding were. y was he adding them, when he had me? chuck it up as the insecure girlfriend that cant trust her man and accuses him of cheating!
