Looking at singleness differently

Oct 06, 2010 19:14


Throughout my late teens and twenties, including up until the present (27 now), I've always had issues with being single. I felt like it was a negative thing for me and always craved a relationship when I wasn't already in one. I feel like I was always looking for at least two things:

fwiw, the gentleman who wrote The Secret is also the same gentleman who charged a bunch of people lots and lots and LOTS of money to die or get quite ill in a poor executed attempt at a sweat lodge. He's being tried for murder, I believe.

The Secret was actually written/produced by a woman named Rhonda Byrne, and the sweat-lodge guy (James Arthur Ray) was actually just one of many speakers in the book/film. On the other hand, I generally consider the validity of a book's content and the author's character to be two separate issues.

Besides, there are many Law of Attraction books and resources out there other than The Secret. My personal favorite at present is Ask and It Is Given, by Esther and Jerry Hicks.

The longest lasting relationships I ever had, sort of happened when I didn't expect them to.

I also have a tendency to, as well, go single for a year or more between relationships.

I personally don't really read any of those books on law of attraction and whatnot, because the way I figure it, if someone thinks i'm all that, the bag of chips, and the large soda, then they will make that known.
