I struggled for years with separation anxiety (a few bad break ups and rejections). Ended up in a position where I needed affection and a relationship to feel worthy/happy although it was never enough really. Ended up getting married to someone I'm immensely incompatible with, which I can see so clearly now (of course, right?) but honestly, through the demise of my marriage I have learned more about myself, how strong I can be when I need to be, and have a clearer vision of what I want out of life. I think being single is an amazing thing, if you can appreciate it. But being in love is beautiful too (with the right person of course). Honestly, I think it all depends on your outlook and perspective! (Sorry for the ramble )
