Dear selfhealingorganism:

Your second thread gives me more information about your mindset and life situation. It is very unfortunate for you that you were born to the woman you were born to.

Understandably, for the child that you were, what your mother said was very important and so, what your grandmother told you was also very meaningful to you. As the adult that you are, if you look at the situation as objectively as you can, you can see-

that neither your mother nor your grandmother deserve to have authority over your thinking.

And so, the two options don’t have to be: make money in the sex industry OR be a bag lady.

I suppose this is why you came up with the third option expressed in your first thread: to be in a monogamous relationship where the man takes care of you financially while you get more education, have a profitable career and/ or be a stay-at-home-mom.

I will be waiting for more of your thoughts and feelings in this thread and the first, hoping to communicate with you further.
