Yes absolutely, choosing myself did feel like the ultimate act of true love. Perhaps courage, but also, there doesn't really feel like another way to me now, choosing me is the only option! YES, me too! I look forward to this day! ☺️
I love that. I don't think you're misleading people or creating a highlights reel (from the outside), but I do think it is easy to romanticise the thought of being in a relationship... so appreciate the extra context!
Baha I think I may have to watch that movie now 🤣🤣🤣
Ahh this is so beautiful Lysette. As someone who left a relationship that was rather lopsided with participation and commitment, I long for this and find your story so inspirational! I've taken my true love and am thoroughly enjoying exploring and growing it on my own for now, and trust that one day I'll meet someone who is willing to share their own true love with me, and together we can build something new! (Or perhaps the gorgeous AI for plan B 😂)
And isn't life so mysterious and enigmatic that maybe leaving a lopsided relationship was the truest act of love in this story of yours. And nurturing it on your own whilst you sit in your longing to find someone who can participate with the same devotion you have...I think that requires such courage. I love chatting with you - the day we meet in person is going to be an excellent day!
My friend Ash told me years ago that marriage was a beautiful mess and I absolutely agree and I would add that sometimes it's a 'BEAUTIFUL mess' but also a lot of the time it's a 'beautiful MESS'. Anyway - just adding this for extra context lest I mislead people with a mirage - we have very hard days/weeks/months too...hope I haven't given a highlight reel in this department but it is very hard to talk about the challenges I find, despite my verbal diarrhoea in most other areas...)
Well there was that one movie with Jude Law so I think the odds are high :D :D :D
