After an abusive relationship I was happily single for over two years. No walking on eggshells! No being on edge all the time, no fear, no stress, no nothing.
All the more am I annoyed with my bouncing back to old toxic habits, aka… waiting for my man, thinking “is this the one?” About every guy I find attractive. Panicking about getting too old am missing the bus.
It’s depressing and I want it to stop! I need advice 🙏
Thanks in advance
You decenter men by centering YOU. it's that simple. Its a muscle you build by regularly, frequently, consistently practicing prioritising yourself. then when you come to a 'pressure point' (ie you get 'tested'), your muscle is already stronger and so it's easier to discern/feel/sense what is right for you, and what isn't. OR, if you slip up, you catch yourself, MUCH SOONER and are able to self correct faster.
Get into the drivers seat of your life. build a beautiful life that is at the highest standards. You won't think twice about a low value man having access to that, have much firmer boundaries, and, the RIGHT man will jump at the opportunity to be a VALUE giving part of that.
Fill your life up with beauty and healthy relationships, center YOU, your dreams, goals, values, standards.
