Thoughts on “attachment”??

As I’m meeting so many people lately who are usually gone from my life within a short period, I’m noticing a trend. Everyone keeps talking about not forming attachments. As if it’s some spiritual endeavor to not get close to others. I think it’s a cop out. I think people can’t form emotional bonds because they won’t deal with their feelings. I understand it’s hard to be a giver, I struggle with that big time. But humans aren’t built to do everything alone. It’s proven that we die early without connections and support.

In this age of needing to connect so desperately, why are we trying to convince ourselves that loving someone unconditionally is the prison? Love is the key, not the cage. Love can be healthy.

I just really don’t understand anymore 😆

@Miklee02 you can order groceries, make friends, have sex (sort of) and do your banking without getting dressed or even talking to another human being

@Pretzel I make sure I shut down and meet and talk to people in real life
I even went to the bank yesterday and did some banking in person
I’m so weird like that 🤓
