I'm terrified that I might end up alone.

I don’t know, I just feel like I can never keep someone around for long. It’s like no matter how hard I try, they always end up leaving, or they don’t like me the way I like them. I get attached, and then it’s like they drift away, and I’m left wondering what went wrong. I can’t help but think maybe there’s something about me that makes people walk away. It sucks, because I really want to be close to someone, but then I end up feeling like I’m too much or not enough. It just always feels like I’m stuck in this loop where people come and go, and I’m left hoping that maybe, just maybe, someone will stick around. But then I always wonder if that’s just too much to ask.

I can understand that fear I used to fear that myself but as I progress further in life I realize that no matter what life is a gift whether it be shared with someone special or endured alone. I have come to realize that even my days alone are a lot better than having no days at all

I try to stay out of that headspace, because people who become desperate to simply not be alone often end up settling for the worst possible partner. And sadly, there are definitely worse situations than being alone. 🥺

You shouldn't have to try so hard, if someone wants to be with you then they won't make it difficult, and anyway you don't want to be with someone who doesn't want to be with you, that's just grief and a headache
