i consider myself an independent women because i don't NEED another person to be there for me. i can BE on my own. i consider myself fairly stable in that arena and i have a lot of goals and ambitions that i'm working for--on my own. sure, i may still live with my parents and still depend on them for some things but i have my own spending money and pay my own bills and part of car insurance. i may have a wonderful boyfriend who takes care of me, and is there for me, but i don't depend on him for anything i work for. it is just normal to want intimacy and affection at this stage of my life. i'm not literally independent but in spirit, i think i am.
