Boy was I wrong. Hear all about it and read about it on the blog by clicking here: https://www.comparedtowho.me/what-i-thought- would-fix-my-body-image-part-two-marriage

If you are single, have you ever thought "If I just had a man . . .I wouldn't struggle?" (It's okay if you did, that's what I believed!
