Default Re: Sometimes it feels like a terrible mistake

I appreciate the responses. You all are right. I am in a secure, safe relationship with someone who loves me and I should be happy with that. I feel so stupid sometimes for for not being happier.

Perhaps tales of endless romance have created unreasonable expectations, as it does for so many people.
This is true. For me it was my grandmother. She loved to tell me the story of when she met the man that was her true love. She described the electricity and the incredible emotion when their eyes met...and the crushing disappointment she felt when she lifted her ring finger to show him she was married.

I guess I never realized how badly I wanted to feel that passion and those butterflies--not badly enough to wait for someone that caused it, I guess.
