Ya know, I think that one of the hardest things to do in life is to discover who you really are and what you really want.

I have a friend who always has to go to the "new and fun" place to eat as well. It always secretly annoys me, and I have finally started to push back. What's wrong with "old and comfortable"? Those new and fun places are often far away, tiny, and way overpriced. Classic example of going along with someone else so you don't rock the boat, but then your pocketbook and stomach hate you for it later. :)
As far as knowing what I want. I have always followed a slightly odd life path - definitely not how my friends and family would choose for me, but they love me anyway. :)

"Someone even mentioned that I'm "secretive." It's not that I'm secretive, I just don't feel like the whole world needs a say in what happens in my life! I think that when I made the decision to make my own decisions and not continually ask for advice when I already had an opinion, that's when I truly started living my life for me."
So very true. It's not about being secretive, it's about finding our own truth regardless of outside influences. I find it hard to discuss about my relationship with others even when they do ask because I dont want to spill too much about what's going on sometimes for fear of "jinxing" the situation or just worried that other's may not like certain things about him for me and then they will judge or give opinions. In fact, someone in my codependency meetings that I go to gave her opinion on something about my boyfriend and it really rubbed me the wrong way and then I started doubting him and myself for a brief moment, but then realized that her opinions don't reflect my beliefs and after that episode, I decided just to keep my mouth shut about things and that's the last time i will mention anything to her regarding him.

I think keeping quiet on some personal things, especially your relationships, makes them more special and sacred. It keeps something for just the two of you - the rest of the world doesn't need to be part of that. Good for you both for sticking to your guns on that.
