You know how sometimes people on your friends list post about stuff going on in their lives, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute! Since when were they working THERE? Since when were they dating THAT PERSON? Since when?" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too

You're section on baggage is very good. Not only seeing a trait in yourself that needs working on, but actually working to improve it, is so hard. It sounds like you have good role models in your family, too, which is helpful. And having a supportive partner makes building your self confidence so much easier, I know from experience. ^_^

Thank you for that insight.

I don't often talk about the baggage (too involving and obnoxious in its size), but I've been needing to recognize it, at least for myself, and do something about it. Baggage and grudges are ridiculous things to carry around too long.

And having a supportive partner is a definite plus! I would never have made it half so far if I had been with my previous bf. ;)

The "yet" in the kids section implies that there are intentions of having some, at least of the non-feline variety. Even if inaccurate, I'm at least intrigued.

It's understandably difficult to be comfortable around others when you're not fully comfortable with yourself. Hopefully you'll find the self-awareness and self-acceptance necessary to bring the kind of harmony you're seeking.

you are correct in making the assumption of the "yet" (hey! It rhymes!)

Bear and I are not actively TRYING to get pregnant, but we aren't AVOIDING either, if that makes sense. Basically, if it happens, it happens! ;)
