I think you may put too much weight on another person, when in turn you should come around and figure out how to enjoy being alone. Alone can be ok. It may not be ideal, but until you can be content being with yourself, you'll never be good enough for another person. Be whole on your own, and learn to love time with yourself, and everything will be so much better with someone else.
ReplyDeleteI love this video on the matter:

There are times that I do enjoy being alone. It is not a matter of being content with myself though, as you say. I have been single and alone, and I have also been married, with a family. Losing something you had is much different than desiring something you have never had. I long for the right partner, not just any. I do not desire to be alone and single, as there are definitely more important and fulfilling stations in life. Happiness is better when it's shared.
