During a discussion with a friend last night, he said I'm bitter - particularly about dating/relationships. Earlier he said I was too negative. So, I started thinking...am I?
I know there are times I sound negative, and when talking about my own relationships, that's just part of the defense I created for myself. Sure, I've had my share of shitty ones and my share of rejection. I was very bitter for a while. You know what, I'm not 100% 'cured' however I've realized there are times he is just not that in to me. I'm learning to recognize the signs. It goes both ways -- sometimes she's just not that into him.
I've decided I'm not bitter. Well, not all the time. Know what I am bitter about? I'm bitter when a guy is interested in me just for sex. However, it doesn't last long, it's not worth my energy anymore.
This all started when asked for my thoughts. I look back on the advice my closest friends tried to give me. Sometimes they were right on, sometimes they weren't. I sometimes listened, I sometimes didn't. I'd get annoyed at times. I know now they just were giving their 2 cents and being there for me. And I'm glad -- I learned alot from them even if it wasn't at that moment.
