    Hi @Abcd1988 Do not be sad your fiance loves you the way you are. It is not something you have any control over. Have you had a recent appointment with your GP to see if you are still on the right medication?

    Always remember you are enough just as you are.

    Take care.

    It's like we're brought up to believe in 'Supposed to'.

    • Supposed to have done 'this' by that age.
    • Supposed to be married with 2.4 children by that age.
    • Supposed to be earning xxxx amount by that age. etc etc...

    Constantly comparing ourselves to others rather than just living our lives for ourselves and those we love the best that we can.

    I jokingly call money 'Social status tokens' because I think it's laughable that the value of a person is based on wealth and material possessions

    The only thing that should matter is being a good person and upholding your personal values/beliefs.

    I can guarantee your fiancée values you, and your love far more than all the money in the world.
