on being enough on your own - 25 sept. 2020

Dear Diary,

I just turned 22 and for most of my live I felt like I needed to find my better half. That I needed to find myself a boyfriend and that somehow everything would be better after. Now that I have the experience of my first and only relationship that shattered after 2 years I begin to think that I am wrong. I don't want to condition my happiness; why wouldn't I be able to enjoy my life without the necessity of a partener? Sure, maybe I will find the perfect guy for me, but souldn't I learn to be fine on my own? I am the only person I have to accept, and I just realised that.. I don't know how or where to start, but I'll have to start working on that...
