Diva’s Table Topic: Can a man with children be self-sufficient without a woman? • Stats: Becoming Emotionally Self-Reliant - zen habits Are you emotionally dependent? Ask yourself these questions: • Are you looking for a romantic partner to make you happy? • If you have a partner, do you look to this person for love, for sex, for support, for reassurance, for validation? • Are you upset if your partner doesn’t react in a certain way, doesn’t meet a need? • When you’re alone, do you feel the need to fill the loneliness void with distraction? Are you always on your phone when you’re alone? • Do you complain a lot about other people? Get mad because of things they do? • Is your relationship the center of your universe? What about your relationship with friends or your kids? • Do you get bothered if your partner does something that doesn’t include you, or cuts out something that you’ve been doing together? Do you get jealous? Word of the Day/ Definition: Raillery; good, humored teasing Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9 “But he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ mat rest.”
