You don't understand. I never said I wanted an happy person. I said I wanted someone that will make me happy. That means, that person might have struggles and imperfections but can still make me happy simply because I accept them as they are.

I never said I wanted an happy person. I said I wanted someone who will make me happy. There's a difference here. If you have low standards, that's your problem to be honest.

I just want to mention that I feel much much much better this Month. Other very positive things have happened in my life. 2020 has been a very intense year for both (positive and negative) but the positive is taking over).

Yes, I have Black university professors in my community that I am asking for advice. I have coffee with one of them next week. On top of the emotional burden, I am overwhelmed by all kind of requests from well-meaning White people who want to become better allies. They all ask me to be part of their committee, for advice, to write articles, etc. All Black people I know who are in academia or are activists are dealing with this. It's very intense. I got an extra semester to complete my comprehensive exam. I think I will be okay.

I am not dating anyone right now. I started this thread multiple years ago. I tend to disagree with you to a certain extent. Being confident, assertive, independant (and I am) AND wanting companionship are not two mutually exclusive things. Both can coexist within a person. If I was desperate, I would have dated anyone at just any cost. I do not and I never did. Which is why I have been single for so long. I have enough self-confidence to walk away if someone is being disrespectful towards me. And I had to do that on multiple occasions, unfortunately. I know you said this are just general observations, but they don't apply to me. I prefer largely being on my own than being with someone at any cost. I am frustrated because I can't find someone that I will be HAPPY with. Not "appear to be happy" for societal norms. A relationship is not even something I want to expose to others. I want someone that I will truly be happy with and that I will make happy. It's rare to find. A lot of people in relationships are actually not that happy. I want someone that will bring me joy, without being perfect. That's all I am saying. I don't think it has to do with something that I do. I just think I haven't been lucky.

1. My make-up good really good today (I did it myself!) 2- I cooked a great meat and cheese macaroni. 3. The weather outside was lovely. 4. I felt less anxious today.

I am not waiting for men to ask me out. I do first steps too and am very comfortable doing so. There is always something that gets in the way, unfortunately. I am still single and will probably remain so. To be honest, I have given up. I don't want to do this anymore

Why do you ask that question? Simply curious.
