I want him in my life

Keywords: {0}

I guess for me you can’t just say I love you and it be that simple. I need snuggles in bed, snuggles on the couch, to be wrapped in his arms, for him to hold my hand when we’re walking down the street, to have our arms interlinked in the movies, our feet touching under the table, a good night kiss and goodbye kiss when he goes to work and a hug when he comes home from work. I sound needy don’t I? I told you, I’m a Koala disguised as a human. But after all that neediness I am still very much a strong independent woman who likes to branch out on her own and who can cope when he’s not here. I don’t need him to be here and to be in my life

I want to be poured out in the discovery of something bigger than myself, but with myself still intact after the out pouring has stopped

Keywords: codependency , empty-nest , exercise , fitness , health , mental-health , motherhood , self-care

This morning I gave myself two years to prepare for my empty nest when my life will no longer be required to support another life so entirely. Small baby steps toward disconnection in an effort to connect more easily each time. More gently. More consensually. To disconnect from the illusion of connection to others and connect more fully with myself. Sounds fully weird and kind of lonely. But it feels right, somehow. I love you guys. And letting you go is the first step toward recovering myself … [after all], how can I expect you to connect to me if I keep denying my own worthiness? I’m tired of striving toward a mirage. I’m going to sit in this space and take care of myself. And then invite you in to warm yourself by the glow that I’m hoping will emerge. Two years.

I was looking forward to graduate and earn my own money

Keywords: TheAspiredCXO

Because I so yearn for that independence. To earn my own money and not needing to ask permission when I want to buy something.

I need it, and I want it now

Keywords: chapter-40 , disabilities , ms. butterfly , crazy , discouraging , disgusting , eternity , frustrated

She’s right; nobody will take care of me the way she does, but she needs to understand that with her or without her, I have to get my life, and the only way I can do that is by breaking free.

I know what I want for myself in the future

Keywords: Japan , school , college , exchange program , exchange student , Filipino , Filipino exchange student , Philippines , study abroad , Tokyo , undergraduate , university

The greatest thing about my study abroad experience was the freedom and independence that I had. Although it meant doing the groceries and cleaning the apartment myself, I loved being able to make decisions for myself. I had never felt so free and happy.

I just want to be wanted

Keywords: {0}

I don’t feel like I depend on others for happiness. I just want to belong. I want to have somewhere to go for the holidays where I’m wanted. I want to have people who have my back no matter what, in any situation. That unconditional love and belonging.

Each day I feel my scope continue to widen

Keywords: {0}

Since being home from my mission (for nearly a year and a half now) I have cried over multiple men and many broken dreams, and I tried so hard to force them together and cling to them. I’ve at last reached a point where my heart is tired, and my walls are sturdy and high. I’ve realized that in order to have a dream succeed, it needs to be something you have total control over, something that you can achieve on your own — I cannot continue to lean on somebody else to get me where I’m headed. And now I finally know where I want to go.

Doing something simply because you love it is enough — more than enough

My writing has given me clarity about what I want to do next. I will be starting an online degree in psychology next year with a long-term view of changing careers. I also have an idea for a number of books I plan to write.

I’m an overthinker so I wanted to know every detail

Keywords: {0}

I’m an over thinker so I wanted to know every detail about my dorm, how everything works and I don’t think I found enough information anywhere. I looked up YouTube videos and on any Texas State social media’s but nothing was answering my questions, it all seemed so confusing. I believe I’m a very independent person and I will find a way to do it and figure it out, so I did.

The more I grow with my anxiety, the more I want to experience on my own

Keywords: Blog Posts , anxiety , independence , mental health , social anxiety

I have always relied on my parents for everything, and they have always been able to provide it, which I will forever be grateful, but there’s just days where I don’t really feel like interacting with anyone I live with, and not because I’m in a mood or anything, it’s just the energy I put into an interaction, is energy I’d rather spend on something else. I guess this is why I’m always out with friends, and if I’m not, I try to leave the house at least once, just to get some space.
