It took me a long time. Honestly, I’ve always been terrible at it. I’ve always jumped from one long term relationship to another. It was my fear of going to bed alone that drove this constant hunger for affection. But I recently spent some time with “the one who got away” while he was in town and I realized that I was filling this void in my heart with people that aren’t even right for me.
Then it hit me. I keep the ones that are wrong for me because I need affection but it ends up bad because they were always wrong for me. It was unnecessary drama in my life, not to mention the emotional and mental strain. Being in the wrong relationships was making me unhappy.
Now that I’m on my own, I feel a sense of freedom and a whole lot lighter on the mental state. I’ve been happier.
It’s ok to be on your own. It’s better than being with someone completely wrong for you. And until you learn how to be happy on your own, you can’t be happy with someone else.
I like when it’s quiet..
