Things I'll Never Say Sorry For

We, as women, apologize far too often for things we shouldn't. This article (here) talks about a study that shows in comparison to men, women perceive that they have committed an offensive act that warrants an apology more often. And most of the time, these "offensive acts" are not really offensive at all. Thank you Pantene, for starting this #ShineStrong campaign so women can be #SorryNotSorry and not feel bad about it.

So, here's my list of things I'll never say sorry for.

1. Being happy about my successes - Yeah, I got a better grade than you, but I'm not going to feel guilty about it. Yeah, I made the Dean's List and you didn't, I'm not going to feel guilty about it. Yeah, I got the last donut. #SorryNotSorry

2. My car or house is not being spotless 24/7 - Dude. I have a life and sometimes it doesn't leave time to deep clean every single day. Plus, I have three furbabies that like to make messes and shed everywhere. #SorryNotSorry

3. My relationship with my husband is amazing - My relationship has nothing to do with yours. We aren't being happy together just to spite you. #SorryNotSorry

4. We don't really want kids - Nope. We like our lives the way they are now. And the world is becoming entirely too overpopulated as it is. What's awesome, is that our families support this decision and are not pressuring us at all. #SorryNotSorry

5. Eating what I want to eat - Although we do eat a pretty balanced diet and I don't let myself overindulge, I simply cannot deny myself chocolate and cheese. Portion control is key! If that makes me look like a fatty (cause I kids am one) then so be it. #SorryNotSorry
