Superiority

I don't want my husband to protect me and provide for me because I am a woman and he feels that it is a man's duty to do that for a woman. I more want him to want to protect me and want to provide for me because he loves me. I don't want a man who thinks that men are the superior protectors and women are there to help and aid. I don't want a man who believes in separate but equal spheres either.



Oh, and btw, I attended a support group for girls who are recovering from eating disorders. I realized that I seriously do have a problem. I mean, it feels under control when everything is just dandy and I can workout how I want to, but it all falls apart if I don't feel like I have burned enough calories. Since Alex and I broke up, I have been skipping lunch on MWF to go workout an extra hour. I don't think anyone noticed because I always eat my meals with the same group of friends that Alex does, so when we broke up and I didn't show at lunch, no one thought anything of it. Or they just don't care if I eat.
