Doesn't matter.
I've got this person.
I spend it with them.
You know, why didn't it work out?
Well, this relationship is working out.
Will I ever find somebody better?
Well, look, I just did.
relationships give you a role.
They give you answers.
They give you something to pour your energy into.
They give you a guaranteed plan, a guaranteed sense of self-worth, and a sense that you've been picked.
And I get it.
It's absolutely terrifying when you have that designated relationship free time, especially if it's the first time in your life you've truly been single.
You're not used to spending this time focusing on you and what you actually want in life.
And so a relationship becomes a way of filling those holes or those gaps in your self-confidence and your self-esteem.
There's this whole theory about this from the 90s, which basically says, I think it's called sociometer theory.
There we go.
Sorry, tripped over my words there.
But
It essentially says that when somebody really ties their sense of self-worth to external things, the loss of such external things can feel much more painful than if you are somebody who ties your worth to internal things.
