A lot of people chase love because everything else in their life feels unfulfilling. life is hard. some people seek out love & intimacy to soften the blow of life. i think it’s a natural human response to desire closeness when you feel spiritually & emotionally alone. when you reach the point in life where you find fulfillment in yourself when you’re alone. or fulfillment in your life’s work or even friend groups that provide you that level of intimacy you deeply desire. you’ll probably be more patient in terms of seeking out romantic love.
some people get really lucky and when they’re seeking out love because life is dull and difficult, they find someone who illuminates theirs. encourages them, inspires them and helps them to do better everyday. a match made in heaven it seems. but that’s rare when you’re young.
either way, i write this not to shame anyone of course. seeking out love, no matter the reason will always provide you priceless self-awareness you never had before. but i share this to foster deeper awareness. possible insight or reflection into yourself.
ask yourself, at this point in my life, why do i deeply desire romantic love? is it loneliness? unhappiness? stagnancy? or just genuine readiness. after you get your answer, ask yourself, is there anything i can do right now to show myself that same love i desire from another?
Think .. Ponder .. Self inspect ...
