Inner Critic: What Does That Mean To You?

[mamachick]

Brat 17, Cool.
I am happily married and a father of daughters. I have to say, no way do I feel at a ease about having my girls out looking, I would hate the thought of my wife out there if something happens to me. It has always been a tough thing to be single, you can't be careful enough. Just be careful and project the same wondeful caring personality that you are hoping to attract. What else is going to attract a wonderful caring guy?

I have three daughters and it has been tough although they had a better mother than I had so hopefully they are a bit smarter. This is not some criticism against all men. It is just about those that are attracted to me and I now it says more about how I am feeling about my self than them. Guess Im not real hopeful even though I wish that I had some wonderful relationship someday. Until then, ....:)

Trying to take charge of this inner bully... has proven to be the most difficult thing I've ever had to do. I can relate to alot that has been shared, but I get so frustrated... If it was a body part, I'd likely volunteer for amputation. But it's like trying to hog tie a phantom... or put the genie back in the bottle... at times a seemingly futile preoccupation. I keep trying because if I don't it's gonna kill me, kill somebody else, or drive me crazy or make me homeless.

I was just thinking this the other day. If I could just cut it off...
