The Beauty Of Truth - by bruce potter

It’s not vital to always have a boy or girl on your arm. It’s not like breathing or eating.. believe me you'll live even though there's not a person next to you. And until you realize this, you'll never have a successful relationship. Too many people spend so much of their time looking for a person of the opposite sex that they neglect the person that needs them most.. themselves. I know you have heard this before but it’s soo true.. until you love yourself, no one will be able to love you back and if you think that finding the person of your dreams will complete you then you are going to be stuck feeling lonely for a long time. Your mate is supposed to complement you, not complete you. Before you jump into a serious relationship you should be able to feel comfortable with the fact that you may break up.. I’m not saying you will break up but you need to be confident that you are the same person alone that you are when you are with someone..

Hey Alanna
While I agree with you in principle, it sounds so depressing to phrase it like that! If I meet someone I potentially like, the last thing I want to consider is whether my mental health would survive a break up. I am too busy wandering around with a stupid smile and singing.

And I do feel that people are different within relationships, and change when they end- for better or worse.

But thank you for always posting things that make me think harder.

Lia-

That is true. I reread this post and realized it wasn't my favorite. It is pretty depressing. I just get so sad seeing young girls spend so much of their life searching for relationships and they don't enjoy life as it is. But it didn't come out the best I guess haha.

Thank you for the response!

Sick post, that's what I'm talking about! If one thing is wrong with a lot of people in this world is that for some reason, they just NEED to be in a relationship. Whether it be purely for sex or what not. People don't spend enough time with themselves and figuring out what they've missed out on - such as the various events with your best mates you decided to miss only because you wanted to tune some chick you met at a bar, only to be shut down anyway!

Life is great without having to worry about relationships, I can do whatever I want, whenever I want, and if someone does decide to like me for who I am.. well then sweet - at least my hardwork fine-tuning my persona to be the best it can be has paid off, not that I sit and take notes in my attempt to become a better person... It's just that being with friends and being with yourself definitely allows you to see what kind of person you are, because of the fact that you CAN do whatever you please. And who thinks about breaking up? You're already thinking about the worst before the best is yet to come! Play as it comes I say. And if you do break up - great, only gives me more reason to get maggot and watch the footy wiith my mates. =]
