You don't sound mean at all, you make good points and I agree with you on a lot, it's actually quite refreshing. I've always been pretty good at figuring things out for myself, but there's this idea that that isn't possible without professional help or something. I'm not saying it isn't beneficial, but I really, in my gut, don't think it's the answer. It's hard to say that to people because you sound egotistical, but I really do my best to be honest with myself. I would admit if I needed help, I just don't think that's the answer for this one.

I'm following my gut, hopefully I will find my way soon. Right now I'm getting the feeling that I just need to hang in there a little longer. I know that a big part of my taking the next step is getting over the women I mentioned, and I think I might finally be getting there.
