If you can't answer this question for yourself, you have no business being a therapist.

It's a shame you don't like weddings, I'm going to a "military wedding" this weekend

I bet that will be cool. Maybe they'll cut the cake with a sword.

That doesn't sound even remotely cool

And exit the ceremony under an arch of swords/sabers. That really is very cool.

They will, they'll also do the Saber arch, my husband is in it. We had that at our wedding and the cake cutting.

Oh naive one, it's not about being "cool", It's about the tradition and the symbolism behind it.

Honestly I don't care, it's not interesting to me at all.

In another post you said you want to start a family and be in a relationship..

It's never going to happen until you learn to compromise and stop being self centered.

I just don't care about other people's weddings. I can compromise, when I'm in a relationship all I do is compromise

You will never be happy if you cannot be happy for others or even manage to be mildly interested in things that aren't all about you. It's that simple. Having a husband and child will not change that, in fact the amount of compromising in your life will multiply. By a lot. A LOT.

Doesn't work that way. You either care about others as a character trait or you really just don't. You can't bargain your way through life by saying you will change once you get what you want.
