A ridiculous thought, and the answer is yes, of course, because I always think there's a balance, but the thought is there. Actually, I think you say it best: "...shutting people out and shutting new things out in order to preserve this need for independence and my own strength" I think my thoughts are two-fold. While I want to be open to the idea of love, you articulated my very hesitation. I'd only just rediscovered myself, and now it will be a journey to rediscover myself with someone else. It's exciting, though. I'm looking forward to seeing where it all leads. But I can't help but wonder where independence ends and dependence begins. Would look forward to hearing how you did that with your husband... Thanks for the comment and thanks, as always, for stopping by. We really should plan a time to talk sometime! :) Beth: Thanks so much for your comment, though I’m sorry for being a bit late in responding…It’s funny: sometimes I think about the possibility of relationships again and wonder if I’ve become so independent that I can’t learn to rely on another again.
