'I love me more'

I don’t understand why so many people think girls have to have a boyfriend or be looking for one! I know I rant about this a lot but I came home from class and my parents somehow started to give me advice on how to “meets boys”…ugh! I tried explaining to them that I like focusing on things in my life that I feel are most important. Family, school, work, study abroad, and friends. And if I get a boyfriend that’s fine and if not that’s fine too. I think they get it now…thank goodness. But then it got me thinking about why I don’t particularly care if I have a boyfriend. Suddenly, a line from Sex and the City popped into my head, “I love me more”. That seems a bit selfish, but I just keep thinking about my life as a whole and I realize that soon after college I will probably get married and start having kids, and from that point on I won’t be able to say “I love me more”.That’s the simple truth. At this point in my life, I don’t want to want or need some else to make me happy. And I don’t want to give someone the power to make me sad and lose focus of my goals.
