[QUOTE="Friday, post: 1721304, member: 27208"] Woohoo!!! Congrats! Veeeeee-k-tor-eeeeee. You now know it CAN be done. You can be the most badass version of YOURSELF, and feel amazing being yourself. That, is huge. A giant, colossal, towering victory. Stamina? Takes practice. Just does. But the more time you spend being your best? The easier it becomes, as you become stronger, more practiced at holding that center. Until it’s rare that you’re not being your best self. Really. Well done. That’s about them, and their life, not about you. Which can be a weird/hard thing to remember... especially when you’ve got the manipulation skills to totally mindf*ck them, to twist and coerce them into doing what you want them to do (instead of showing them the respect of being who they are and making decisions for their own life), and are electing not to use those skills. And, NOT using those skills? They. Still. Effing. Love. YOU. Whether they don’t want to be in a romantic relationship now (or ever, but friends -real friends- get together all the time, once things are right in both of their lives), they still want YOU in their life. You being yourself. Not you pretending to be someone else to manipulate them into wanting you in their life... but just you. Are wanted. As you are. No strings. That’s kinda freaking awesome. It’s totally fair if you don’t want them in your life, if it’s not in a romantic role. But they want you in theirs. [/QUOTE]
