Life Path

So many people have different experiences in their live which mold them into the people they are today. For example, I have a friend that was a serial dater in college and jumped from relationship to relationship and never really got be single...her experiences have caused her to be a tad co dependent, but they have also made her extremely accommodating and flexible. Whereas someone like myself who maybe had one boyfriend all of college is much  more independent, but also a tad selfish. Having to always only worry about myself has given me the strength and confidence to handle things on my own, but has also hindered my ability somewhat to think for others and consider whats best for both parties. Neither of these scenarios or life experiences is better than the other. Both of them alike, attribute to shortcomings as well as strengths. The relationship person may not have the best sense of self, but is definitely more likely to know what she wants out of a relationship having gone through various ones. Everyones separate paths have got them to where they are today. The exposure they had to different things led the to this place, but how they view this place and maneuver themselves further in life is decided by their path much less than themselves.
