Do you have that or are you thinking / dreaming that only a life companion can fill your emptiness?

I thought so too for a long time. Then I saw happily coupled people falling into depressions and experiencing different kinds of troubles.
That's where I learnt that there is not ONE thing in our lives that makes us real happy, because we are many things and we do need many things to make us happy.
When I was thinking that a life companion will be the answer to all my questions I was wrong: I also need a job that I like, enough friends, free time for my hobbies, money to spend on things I like. If i couldn't have all this and had just a life partner.... I honestly don't think I will be real happy.

Please, do not think 'magic'! Do not think that just one thing will save your life. You are the only one who can save your life, putting in all that you need

Thanks for writing. I think I need to reflect on what you've said before I can really write a response.
