It really bothers me when people say that their "life is complete" when getting engaged/married or that they can't be happy until they get a SO/engaged/married.

Feels smallminded to me, but maybe the rest of us just want too much.

does it feel very 'lifetime protagonist who has everything BUT love and therefore isn't happy' ? Yes LOL But I can also get her wanting a forever love to go alongside her own career

[therearewords]

I als think that the majority of the people that use the words don't over think them as we do.

Or just live life by a bingo card.

I’m someone who needs a partner. I just feel lonely when I don’t have one.

That's a good thing to know about yourself. Not everyone can be happy/comfortable on their own. I just feel like so many women (and sometimes men) put so much emphasis on finding "the one" and don't concentrate on themselves (I'm not putting that on you, I'm just trying to elaborate on my comment above). I am a firm believer that making your happiness dependent on someone else is a dangerous road to walk down.

Yeah I did that and my bf just broke up with me. I understand now that it‘s wrong for being so dependent but I just can‘t stay alone. I kinda never learned that. My life seems to pointless now.

It's not "wrong" - sometimes you just can't help it. You life is not pointless! I'm sure you are so much stronger than you are giving yourself credit for. You'll get through it. Hopefully you have a good support system around you and you can take comfort in them. Try finding something for yourself that makes you happy so that in your next relationship there isn't as much pressure on that other person to be your sole source of happiness. (Easier said than done, but it might be a good distraction until you find yourself in your next relationship.)
