My heart goes out to you with regard to the death of your loved one.
Do not let death and grieving pull you permanently out of the realm of intimate relationships.
Human connection is foundational to all kinds of success. Taking it seriously has served me well.
- silverquiet 3y agoLoved one is probably overselling it - she cut me loose for the man she would eventually marry and then passed away a few years later, but it certainly made it all seem even more pointless than before. I’m mostly responding to all the advice I see about the benefits of marriage. My response tends to be something like, “so…?”. It occurs to me that no one of these people really talks about the benefits of dating, which seems like a pretty significant prerequisite. And again, I suspect there’s a lot of selection effects going into that data as well. Not that I don’t appreciate your comments.
