Better, stronger...
Better, stronger...
Has anyone here noticed that after recovering from the hideousness of it all, you are a better, stronger, more secure version of your Pre-N self???
I feel that way. My boundaries are much stronger now. I'm not talking about just with men, I mean with everyone. I am more direct. Less wishy-washy. I'm leading more. I'm contributing more.
And as far as dating goes, I no longer lose myself. I used to lose myself quickly. Hand over ALL my power. Now I don't lose my head.
Here's my analogy for why...
You know when you get food-poisoning from a specific food and you KNOW you will never eat that food again because just the thought of it makes you want to toss your cookies???
Well, that's how I feel about men and losing myself. I lost myself completely in both N's. The last one was a doozy. It made me so sick. So sick, that I can never "eat that food" again. For any man. I am also pickier and less "desperate" or hungry. Guess that makes me less likely to be preyed upon.
So something good came out of the N after all...
I am a stronger, better me. Anyone else??? What did you notice?
Heck yeah!
