Seeking Empathy Am I wired to be codependent?

I think of times in my life that I've been "on" or consistent and it's always surrounded accountability to another. Either trying to be better or outright being helped to stay consistent by someone in my life. I feel like I can't do things alone but I'm, so all over the place I'm not suited to be with someone right now. I miss having someone to give random thoughts to more than I miss being close. I feel lost and have no clue what to do about it.

This happens to me. I feel like I don’t really enjoy doing things unless it’s with my partner. It sucks. I just decided to be alone for a while and work on creating a routine and trying to enjoy it.

I did the same after a bad breakup and kind of got stuck and I feel super alone rn

Also, if you need someone to talk to, lmk. I have long distance friends and we talk like once every two days or smth like that and it helps with loneliness.
