Hello! I'm new to Gaia and browsing the forums. I thought this would be a good place to ask some questions and get to know people.
I have two things bothering me of late.
The biggest I think is the loss of self. I read all this stuff I had written when I was really young and feel I lost a lot of my spunk and creativity. Beaten by life? I dunno. I feel like I'm having to conform to survive but it is putting out that spark that makes me well me. I begin to find myself being a sheep instead of the unicorn I want to be razz And I have started relying on others and being less independent. I don't like it but to survive in my life I feel I must conform. How do you not lose your spark with mundane life crushing it?
The second thing is I am totally a late bloomer so the dating scene is...very intimidating. I am not a Tinder girl or a social butterfly. Doesn't really appeal to me and I'm a romantic at heart and don't really want a series of flings. I actually am fascinated with people around me who are able to fall in love or have crushes easily. I know I should work on myself and leave myself open. But, any advice for a late bloomer? Any stories how you met your loves?
