True Love
Quote From: lollywillyI would first like to say that no one in the world can MAKE you happy, except yourself. Second of all, you need to figure out who YOU are before you can BE happy with someone else. I figured that out the hard way. I realized that when we were signing divorce papers. He couldn't make me happy. I couldn't make me happy until I figured out what I wanted in a mate and who I wanted to be as a mate. It took me 4 years. But I got it right. And now I am happy. Try it. I understand what you mean. I just started reading Dr. Phil's book "Relationship Rescue", and he starts it with how you have to reconnect with yourself first before you can fix the relationship. I am happy with myself. I'm a very confident individual and know I have a lot going for myself at such a young age. My husband and I have a good relationship for the most part. We are able to just sit and talk like friends and joke around. It's just that affection issue. With all that said, if I'm happy with myself, does that mean that I'm just not happy with him? I know he can't MAKE me happy, but there are little things that would make me feel better about our relationship. Does that make sense, or am I just naive?
