I grow up with the spirit of sacrifice and compromise. I always had hard time to say to someone "No".
Now that I am 33 (and somehow wise), I am following more what I really like.
I am not crazy for my job for example and I have been thinking about changing career, but I still want to give it a go.
In the past I had boyfriends that had nothing to do with me, but I still compromised "for the sake of love", now I am more "fuck off, life is too short to do what I don't like"
