I thought I had to do everything perfectly and efficiently for my partner. In doing so, I became more of a mother to him and less of a mate and lover. I catered to every wish, want, desire, and need he had to the detriment of my mental and physical well-being. I'm never going to do that again nor do I have a desire to be "all things to all people". I'm less intense now and I like myself more in this state of contentment and self-reflection. The time will come that I want to be "super" to my potential mate, but it does not mean I have any intention of being a "superwoman" ever again.
