Dear Men and Women, Your Happiness Is Your Responsibility, Not Anybody Else’s
Stop looking for someone who will put your needs above their own, it’s a futile search
Sure, some people are more empathetic than others.
There is such a thing as being loyal to your spouse and being there for them in sickness and health till death do you part.
But in the end, you can only trust yourself. It’s nobody else's responsibility to make you happy.
And frankly, at what point is it unfair to expect your spouse to subjugate and put their own lives on hold should you become disabled, bed-bound, or mentally ill?
If you cheat on your spouse or engage in a high-risk lifestyle, and they leave you, does that mean they betrayed you?
Does your spouse owe you undying, flawless, and total truthfulness….or is it acceptable to expect a certain amount of deceitfulness, fickleness, and selfishness?
When you date and then marry someone, do you become dependent on them to “make you happy?”
Doesn’t true love mean putting someone else’s needs above your own?
Not necessarily.
Being in a relationship or marriage doesn’t mean that person is responsible for every aspect of your well-being.
