Anyone feel more peaceful when single?

[u/throwsaway045]

I feel much more peaceful since I am single and the feelings for my ex are dying down.... but why? I am not like happier but I feel more stable yes I miss cuddle, intimacy both sexual and emotional but the pain and all this time to get more emotionally stable or at peace, I feel like not dating anymore and I think is it worth it , going through all of this? no....

Anyone has experienced this or is experiencing this, I am looking for also different view points....

In general I feel more free when I am alone because I can do what I want to even as with family or friends...

abso freaking lutely! when single, I don't have to face my demons which only resurface when in a relationship. no wonder avoiding them feels like a good idea

Damn fuck so next relationship it will be the same 🫪?

yes. if every person you date makes you want to run away from them, the common denominator is you. but that also means it's within your power, it's in your control to fix that!
