Ladies celebratin’ ladies

Bottom line, I guess: I really honestly believe that it’s true, that women can have a complete and fulfilling life made out of work and friendships, with or without a significant other. If I could go back and give my 18-year-old self advice it would be to love my friends more, and let the dudes come and go as they please. What about you? What are your hot tips for the investment of your affection and time?

    At the moment, honestly, it’s sunshine, salt water and places without Internet connectivity. Why can’t the whole world live within six blocks of me, again?

    re dudes come and go:
    I got lucky, I found a life partner, and he’s definitely not ‘come and go’. We’ve been together 20 years and I hope we’ll both have another 60 (:

    I think the point is not that romantic interests are (or should be) exchangeable, but that a woman is a valuable person by herself and does not need a man to become valid and have self respect. In my opinion, making entirely clear that I wasn’t going to tolerate any bad treatment and that any such would be pushing the ejector seat button on the relationship kept the bastards away enough for me to find my genuinely nice guy.
