Loving anyone is very, very painful. I'm not sure what the point is. Looking for a "partner" seems to just be a form of self-sabotage.
It's too bad. It always starts out so lovely and delusional.
I will be alone again, and the next time I'm alone, I'll choose to stay alone for a very long time, if not for the rest of my life.
Objectively, it's easier with a partner - someone who is supposed to bring you up when you're down, and take the reins when you lose your way - but isn't it more that we just want someone to keep us company when we're at our best and worst? Don't we just want to have someone to bounce ideas off? Doesn't it just mean we're afraid of going it alone?
It just takes knowing how to take care of yourself - financially, medically, etc. Prepare for your future and have enough, and then you can stop relying on someone else to support you. Then you don't have to deal with the arguments and insensitivities that break you down and traumatize you. Then you can appreciate your happy moments without trying to make anyone else relate. It can all be for you, not them. Everything you gave to them - all the money, time, and affections spent - you can give to yourself.
It's pointless to commit to such a parasitic thing as a relationship.
