I Never Loved Another Person The Way I Loved Myself

I have two completely oposing personalities that are housed in my mind.

Obviously, this makes me sound a little mad but, everyone has an ulter-ego.



That inner voice that always shouts at you to do the opposite of what you’re thinking. The one that urges you to go that step further than you should. And mocks you when you do something stupid.


All those books that urge you to ‘tap into your inner voice’? Don’t do it! It’s a complete con that will release your badgirl side.


This girl, she doesn’t care about credit card bills. She demands the best of everything. Then runs away before she has to face the music.

 
She insists you buy the big box of chocolates and then shames you into eating them all in one sitting before anyone else can find them. Then tells you she still wants dinner.

 
It’s this girl that gets me into trouble. She’s the part of me that’s a sex kitten. Which is really quite unfortunate as the rest of me is just an adult version of my child self.

 
This isn’t to say I’m not interested in being a foxy feline and prowling for men. Just that I’m extremely content playing on my own.

Friends Over Boys

A great friendship is something that’s hard to describe.



There’s a scene from the Sex And The City movie (No, this isn’t all about SATC!) when Carrie, after being jilted, is in Mexico with the girls.


Carrie’s in bed, has been for at least a day and a half. She’s in the dark and she just wants everything to disappear.


Samantha comes in with some food. Sits down and spoon feeds her yoghurt.


It’s almost patronising that Sam is treating her like a child. Making sure she eats, while Carrie looks helpless and worn out.

 But, this is friendship.
When your friend treats you like a child because she loves you as if you were her own child.

She will be there when you’re at your complete worst and want to make the pain go away.


Best yet, she does anything possible to help make the pain go away. Looking after your most basic needs so you can focus your energy on getting through the agony.
