Amber got me thinking… (lol)

There definately is that whole go from home to husband and then have kids like in a year-which is sad. I know a lot of people that reject or ignore that idea-but some of the older/smaller minded people cling to it.

I…

I agree but for really trivial reasons… Like, I’ve day-dreamed about my days in a dorm room at BYU since I was like, 3. I really don’t want to give up on my dream of a couple carefree years at university. Also, I don’t want to get married right out of high school because then that’s less time that I get to date and get to know lots of different boys. Haha. Plus I want to date the guys my own age after they get back from their missions soooo that’d mean I’d have to be single at 21. :) The whole dependent thing though… I don’t really care so much about that. I mean, I’m a very emotional person. I connect to people. And I accept that. I am dependent on my emotions to give my life meaning and no me importa. 

There’s nothing wrong with connecting to people. It’s when you connect your worth to others. Being able to cope on your own helps people to build confidence in themselves and their abilities.

I think I may be one of those girls that goes from home to husband-still don’t know if I’m moving yet. But I have a massive respect for everyone who lives on their own or with roommates-because it’s too easy to let other people take care of you.

I want to be someone who is secure with myself on my own. If I’m relying on a boyfriend or husband for my worth and stuff then I’m probably going to have issues. Mentally healthy me comes first.

And then there’s the whole kids in a year thing. I know that that’s not always what happens. But when I get married I fully expect people to ask me when I’m having kids. Which is sad. And I kind of feel bad for those people.

I like to think more about the fact that I have an eternity to progress as an individual-and with a spouse.

And lalalala I feel like I almost had a point and then I lost it because I’m scatter brained.

I can’t belive Amber made me think. Gosh. I can smell burning.

Heyyy, I made think happen! Yay!

Eventually I do want to get married and have kiddos, but I want to do other awesome things before that time. I just was so uncomfortable with the idea that you pretty much go from a teenager to a full blown adult in a matter of months (in some cases). I have all the respect in the world for people who do that, but I couldn’t. I want my future husband and I to be co-dependant: working together, neither is more dependent on the other, yet we still like being together, you know what I mean?

I can’t even begin to tell you how empowering it feels to wake up in the morning in a place that is entirely your own. I really think everyone should have some time to themselves for a long stretch of..time (redundancy, yay!). I know it’s helped cement my ideas on who I am as a person.

Totally! Thank you for the Co-dependant line! So many people are under the impression that one person has to be in charge!
