Needs an upgrade. I used to be very modest and reserved, but now I'm like, openly full of myself. I don't know what happened.
I read something in Marie Claire about women should lower their standards when looking for "the right man" because otherwise they'll be 45 and single and miserable. She attributes the reason why we (women) have such high standards for ourselves is because we surround ourselves with family and friends who endlessly tell us how beautiful, smart, and creative we are, so we get this inflated idea of self. Like, my friends tell me I'm amazing, why would I settle for someone not amazing?
I'm not looking for a husband or anything, but I can see how this would be a problem. Especially with me. Like, maybe it's ok to tell yourself Yes, I am amazing in every way and incredibly superior to most people, but my guy doesn't have to be.
Whatever.
