It seems like I have what it is to make me happy but it also seems like I push it all away... I have a loving and supportive (most of the time) (basically) fiance', a amazing little soon to be stepson, a place to live, the internet and all you amazing people here on DS... and so much more to look forward too. Why do I push the love of my life away, given up on seeing the baby and have no interest in living some days?....
It seems like if I realize I am happy I find one small flaw to pick at and make a huge one... I always seem to do anything I can to mess up and make it so I ain't happy. I fight being happy basically... Why though? Doesn't everyone want and deserve happiness?

Everyone does deserve happiness. Some just dont know what to do with it when they get it or too afraid to enjoy it. I dont know why this is...but realizing what you are doing may help you to count to 10 the next time you want to push your loved one away.

I think I'll try that... although if I don't say something when something is wrong it pisses me off I would rather take a breather and then talk to him then blow up on him and push him away...

Walking away and coming back to discuss things is a good idea. Communication is key to all relationships in life. Whether it be marraige or friendships,ect. I am quick to react when I am mad. I practice the walk away and come back often. lol. I also keep in mind that alot of times pushing someone away too much can push them further from us. Dont make the mistake so many out there have made.

i do the same. indecision. im not afraid of commitment once things get going, but starting is really hard. i can find flaws in just about everything, and can never just go with things as they are.

Hun, we can never be happy until we are content. We need to learn to love ourselves; accept who we are, flaws and everything. When we walk in gratitude and not covet, then happiness will come naturally. xx

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
