is there a such thing as being too I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T

Every woman wants to be that 5 star chick, Mrs. Independent etc.....Myself included I pride my self on the fact that I have my own everything.....These things are material things however they are mine....but as I sit and think about my life going forward and things I wanna accomplish I start to wonder are my goals a little flawed....its to the point where I wanna own my home before I wanna get married......I want my name and only my name on the mortgage.....I think this way of thinking can cause problems when its comes to making a life with my future husband.....that whole attitude that I don't need a man is something I think I personally take too far....Its ok to be a hard worker and work for things you want.....and expect your man to be able to do the same.....but at the same time you still need be able to admit when you need help...if and when I am married I wanna feel like me and my husband are a team...I don't want it to ever be a power struggle or to have a attitude like I don't need nobody.....I don't know about y'all but sometimes i just be tired of screaming independent all the time......

Being able to care for yourself financially is a great feeling and accomplishment. As a not so newly wed, one of the most important things that I have learned while going through the marriage process is that God did not intend for us to be independent and go through life on our own. It is God's intention that there is 1 man for 1 women and that you wed and live as one. With that being said, I still have my own bank account and I don't want to share my money! LOL
