Don’t get me wrong there is no doubt that i love my boyfriend dearly. I mean he’s amazing and with out a doubt the best. And i’m lucky enough to have nothing to complain about in our relationship, because it just works. However i have just one confession… 

As picture perfect as our relationship is, theres one flaw that i just have to point out, over the past few months that we’ve been together i felt like i lost something along the way. Something that i promised my self i would never lose, especially because of a guy, and that is my independence . 

I’ve been independent for a while now, I’ve been taking care of my self and providing for my self, not only financially but emotionally, physically, and mentally. But since I’ve been in my relationship i feel like i lost that independence that i was so proud to have. And i have to admit I’m so disappointed in my self for allowing this to happen. 

I’ve been able to stand strong with or without a man on my side for years, and i don’t plan on changing that. If this means distancing myself from eugene to regain the independence i lost then it is something i’m willing to do. because i have to be selfish and look out for my self, because god forbid my relationship goes down the drain atleast i’ll have my pride and independence to hold on to. 

I am independent not interdependent.
