Today, I will be available for closeness and intimacy with people, when that’s appropriate. Whenever possible, I will let myself be who I am, let others be who they are, and enjoy the bond and good feelings between us.

The Language of Letting Go

Am I too critical of people? Do I place people on a pedestal that they will inevitably not live up to? I’m not sure in all honesty. I don’t think that I knowingly do this, instead I push people away out of fear of rejection + abandonment.

So how do I change this? Do I let go of the “ideal man” and “ideal person” notion that I have in my mind? How can I be more accepting of other people? It’s ironic really, because I fell into the Dicktard woman trap because I was so unconditionally accepting, and yet now it’s something that I struggle with.

Ah well, it’s not an imminent issue for me, so I suppose when the time comes, I’ll deal with it. (Can you tell that I’m in a laissez-faire mood at the moment?)
