It's about ME!? Again, such a hard concept for me, I don't like being the focus, I like giving the spot light.
Each of us is on a different journey. Each person's focus needs to be on their own journey. If you're focusing on someone else's journey, you'll trip over a rock on your path while you're watching their feet.

H was the one person I let in...and now I'm reliving my painful past of loneliness, and let down by those I love.
My sitch has taught me that there's only one place any of us can reliably draw happiness and contentment from- within ourselves. You say "loneliness", I say "time with oneself". We're only lonely if we convince ourselves we have to be around others to be content. But we don't. I'm not saying to be a hermit, but I am saying that we don't have to be around someone else 24/7. It's healthy to have a mix of alone time and time with others.
