I am not a cautionary tale.
I am your neighbor, your cousin, your daughter, friend, niece, sister, aunt... and I am an independent thinker, and I'm living my life as authentically as I can.
Unfortunately, there are those who exist in my life who find my way of thinking and living to be less than what they would imagine is acceptable.
Well, I'm just going to take off my filter and say one thing to you (*you* being a general, multiple bodied *you*):
I don't care what you think. The fact that you are putting my life under your microscope only tells me one thing: you want out of your own, and into mine. Otherwise, you wouldn't be meddling. You wouldn't have things to say.
Your disappointing behavior is bleeding jealousy everywhere.
My honest thoughts are...if you can't support me and/or at least try to understand the decisions I have made, am making, and will make...then you're just looking for one more thing to distract you from your own unfulfilling lot; I refuse to be that person for you.
And now, here's my unsolicited advice from me to you: wake up tomorrow, and do something different. Ask the questions you've been too afraid to ask. Do the thing you've been too afraid to do. Change the life you're tired of living.
But stay the hell away from mine until you've come to an adult understanding of what it means to live and let live.
