I love my boyfriend w/all of my heart. He is a great guy and means the world to me. I'm just afraid I don't know who I am. I know I want to give so much love, to support him and be there for him etc. At times I feel as I am too much. I always wanna call just to say hi and I love you....It's just I dont know where to start with myself. Life is complicated right now and I don't know how to find "me" to better "us".? Any advice?
Thanks |

How about starting with taking an interest in an old passion of yours..... see if the YOU, that is lost, comes back out.

Hi Rhapsody...
The old interests I had I am no longer interested in...have no desire whatsoever. I don't know what I should be doing or want to be doing, other than being with my BF. I could say I don't have answers right now but I really dont know the questions. I feel like a mess. Thanks for replying. |

get your hands on a life changing book called "co-dependent no more" and please read it. it will help you understand yourself. if you can't find that book,just get any book about c/d and read it.

When looking to support your boyfriend/the relationship you have to look only at him and what he likes, not what you're dong. Does HE like calls to tell him you love him? You have to be interested in him and what he says as well as, when you're looking to find out about yourself, interested in only yourself and what you want, not what you think others want of you. There is no "supposed to" about yourself.
I rewatched the "Runaway Bride" last night and the scene where she tries all the eggs to find what kind of eggs she liked is the right idea. What you like and how you live your life has nothing whatsoever to do with anyone else, including your boyfriend. __________________ "Never give a sword to a man who can't dance." ~Confucius |
