What is something that you have said you will never do, but have done? And, did you enjoy it?
(submitted by: Anonymous)
Virtually everything I’ve ever done.
- I swore I’d never hit a woman.
- I thought I’d never control a woman.
- I once hated watching girls cry.
- I never imagined I’d call a girl “fat”.
- I argued passionately, for many years, that pervasive control in a relationship was a bad thing.
As it turns out, most of the things I said I’d never do were things that reminded me of my dad… sadly, it took decades for me to realize that I am not, in fact, him.
PROTIP: Save yourself a lot of trouble and let it sink in right now. You are not your parents. They are lessons, not reflections.
