"Being single gave me time to nurture my uniqueness, my quirks, and my passions. Most importantly? I started trusting myself. I believed in the decisions I made. I stopped looking to other people for validation. And even though I am definitely not happy all of the time, once I really connected with myself, I felt a type of happiness that I have never experienced before."
Yes indeed.
Now it makes me want to think and reflect on what my 20s is like.
