I've just realised there's still a small part of me that has believed I could actually be perfect one day.. But that's not possible! And I don't need to be
 As a kid, I blamed myself for my parents' problems - I reckoned if I could be different, better, more 'perfect', my dad would have cared about me and my mum wouldn't have been so sad all the time.. But that was completely out of my hands - what they were, are, felt, did.. That was and is completely about them. Same goes for everyone else. I don't need to be perfect for anyone! If people want to be with me, they will be - if not, they hopefully won't even try, and I don't want them! It's all cool

I grew up feeling like I needed to be perfect so I'd be loved. Never achieved it, and never will, but I'm learning to live with it.

I just passed your wisdom onto my teenage twin daughters. I'm sure they feel like that about me all the time. I don't want them to be perfect. I think it's just the way I was raised as well. I expect alot from them. I love this group, because it teaches me so much about how to be a better human.
Thanks Not dead yet! |
