one of the major concerns of BBWs is to be accepted. a lot of times it can be an uphill battle. but it also set me to wondering, how good are we at accepting the love that is offered? what about the positive reinforcement love and admiration we get? how have you evolved when it comes to this issue? what things are still challenging you?
i know that i come from a background where as a woman you're encouraged to be emotionally self sustaining. your encouraged to always be the one giving. that can be a good thing but it also has a whole lot of drawbacks. it can make people feel like they aren't needed. so sometimes that makes it hard to be vulnerable to other people and actually give them the chance to give to me. i still have a whole lot of work to do when it comes to allowing someone to be there for me. its tough. sometimes it takes a lot of effort to take a hand thats offered.
