How can I overcome the Disney Mindset?

Anonymous
Since I was a kid I always dreamed of the day of getting married. I would make lists of all the traits I wanted in my future husband. However, now that I’m grown, I’ve realized how toxic that mindset is. I don’t want to keep thinking that a man will save all my problems, or make my life 100% complete. I want to be able to focus on myself and become the best and healthy version of myself.

After realizing the toxic traits that my parents have and hearing negative stories from friends about their ex’s and from social media, it really takes a toll on my mental thinking that it’s best for me to just remain single for the rest of my life.

I still do desire to get married but I just want to stop expecting that some fairy tail miracle will happen to me. Help 🥺
