The Bitter Woman- DATING DETOX advice

While we are detoxing we need to be aware of something, and that is going to be that we have some, if not a lot of unresolved issues with men. Patti is very upfront in telling us that we all have them but it is critical that we say, "I forgive all the men who came before; I start with me!" She claims that forgiveness lightens ones load and "one of the most important keys to dating success lies in not becoming The Bitter Woman." We cannot spend time dwelling on all the past Bad Boyfriends and we must look forward to "all the wonderful experiences we are going to have with men in the future."

I realize that I cannot just wake up one morning and say, "OK, the past is the past, I'm going to be a happy person!" Trust me, I try it everyday... but it's so very hard to let the past go. What I try to do is instead of focusing on the past, and all the bad things that may have happened, I try to look forward to the present and the future by trying to find and do things that make me happy... what makes you happy?

IMPORTANT NOTE:::
SO IMPORTANT- You must accept the fact that you're NEVER, EVER, EVER going to change them. Just drill this in your head NOW, know that even if you try to change them, even if its for the better, it will not happen...k? k.
