RE: Stay Independent! Don't Let A Relationship Ruin Your Life!
It always blows my mind how different people's experience an views are based on the environment they grow up in. That line about your only friends should be you boyfriend/girlfriend, husband/wife is mind blowing too me.
I certainly was not taught that, in fact I had to learn the opposite because I liked to spend too much time with my significant other when I was younger.
Interesting post, they always our but this one was rose a bit above :-)
It's true! Sometimes you are raised in an environment that isn't healthy. I'm glad you were taught the opposite. Because I was taught that, I saw friendships as a waste of time growing up, Because I thought once I got married I would need to abandon those relationships. Which wasn't true! Haha. I mean I was able to get a lot done as far as my businesses go. But It's kind of hard starting from scratch on building relationships with people.
Well, I can relate to that piece a little too. When I moved to FL, I moved to an area I knew not a single person. Basically had to start from scratch building a network and making friends.
Helps you really get to know who you are and who you want to be when getting to do this in adult life.
