This was forced on me and it feels like my life is over. It feels like I can’t be the person I used to be anymore. I worked so hard on myself, I’m very kind, charming, attractive woman with a great career. I was being so intentional about dating and someone took that from me by taking advantage of me. Because I knew what I brought to the table, my standards were so high and now I feel like I will never be able to date someone like what I was looking for before. Because the reality is why risk it with me when there’s plenty of other fish in the sea. I’m hoping I can just learn to be happy without love. Has anyone found love where you feel you didn’t have to lower your standards?
