I notice I haven't been interested in any kind of romance recently

I think sometimes romantic preoccupation can be a distraction when we lack purpose.
I've been growing and learning a lot, but there's a sense of discomfort in how comfortable I am without it.

Yes it's great and some chapters are focused on other things but i do miss that naive feeling of vulnerability that comes from wanting someone.

I’ve been there many times. There were times during those periods where I thought I was ready for romance, but soon realized that it wasn’t what I desired once I started getting “closer” to people. Unfortunately, that may have come at their expense and I do feel bad about that. But I suppose at least I stopped things early. It’s human nature to want all the things that come with romantic relationships, I think. It can be a bit unnerving when you realize how comfortable you can be without another person. For me, at least. I think I’ve inadvertently distanced myself from some great people because of it.

I've been at that place for years now. It's strange but I can see so clearly now how unhealthy my romantic daydreams were when I was younger.

@CrazyMusicLover That's how I see it too. It'd be nice to have a healthy version of that but I don't think I'm emotionally open ATM to it
