but are you willing to go months or years without romantic love from another if it means sticking by your standards and loving self?

i’m almost to 1 year and i’m proud of myself. in every moment of loneliness, i chose to sit with myself. i’ve chosen to stand by my standards. there were moments where i wanted to search externally and moments where i did but i’ve always returned to self. i’ve really grown

the best part about choosing self is that i don’t feel played by the world. i don’t feel lonely anymore. i feel solid. i’ve healed codependency and have healthy attachments. i’ve really healed and grown in all areas of live. thriving is an understatement and i’m thankful.
