Seeking acceptance comes in may forms, either through money, objects, friends or religion. so yes, in a way it is apart of human nature to find acceptance, however. i should have clarified my meaning of putting happiness in others, I meant putting happiness/acceptance in friendships will normaly fail given enough time.however you normal can find both of these in other forms of relationships, I.e spouse or your kids/parents, (these are normal the ones that last forever) as the saying goes. "friends come and go but family is forever." secondly I don't think I said anything about leaving, though i may be wrong. nor was/am I suggesting it. just because no one excepts your belief in sexuality, doesn't mean they don't except you. Not everyone will see eye to eye on certain matters, and sometimes this needs to be said during a conversation, it reminds both parties that you can still be friends even if you don't agree on certain matters.
