The only thing we have to consider is if we are using our already full lives as an excuse to avoid getting involved with someone who may or may not hurt us the way someone may have in the past. So many of us have walked away at the drop of a hat when a man has said or done something that may have reminded us of someone who had mistreated us in the past. I am certain that none of us want to be alone forever but when you have built yourself into a complete woman who is self-sufficient and secure, Mr. Right often hides behind his childish whims and nervous statements that easily give us an opening to dismiss him long before he dismisses us! Be sure that you aren't passing up something great simply because you're afraid that showing weakness will end badly. We will never feel the great stuff if we're afraid of facing the negative outcomes that a little vulnerability may bring us. I speak from my own experience! I haven't gotten it right yet...but I'm living life in the fullest way I know how in the meantime!

I'm using this time to learn about myself and relationships in general.

Unfortunately I know several women who still put up with the BS. It's a sad sight to see grown women making the same mistakes as 16 year olds. Re #6.
