(no subject)
out of curiousity, not judgement, i would like to ask;
why do some people define themselves by their romantic partners? and not by their romantic partners' personalities, but by stating whether or not they have one - like THEY are an interesting fact about YOU.
if they were children, of course i would understand. you created them. they're a part of you. but, your partner? do they really have thay much impact on your personality, on your soul, that you describe yourself through them?
would love to hear feelings and opinions about this popular strategy.
