I've always been way too emotionally dependent on the men in my life, as if my own identity relied on being in a relationship. I'm very happy married now, and I have more space to breathe than I ever gave myself when I was continually chasing, or like you say trying to 'lock someone down' - and that started in the gap between my relationship with my ex and my husband. I'm grateful I got there before meeting him (even if it took me until I was 33 🤦🏼♀️) It's a great attitude to have, thank you for writing about this x
im sorry baby im working on it!!

Crossing out "Dying," and "that he had," is genius. It made me giggle. Insightful piece, as usual!
This reminds me of the best dating advice I have received …”a relationship is two people choosing to spend time together.”
Love as an active choice is beautiful- I can say from experience.
The awesome part? It’s true for monogamous and polyamorous relationships.
i feel so seen!!!
