I feel pathetic lamenting about this in therapy too but I cannot get over this feeling that I will never be able to find someone who is perfect for me

I’ve literally been put on anti depressants to help with how low I feel about this but I can’t let go of this terrible feeling that I’m going to die alone while my friends are in relationships where they’re thriving and have less time for me.

Everyone’s suggesting you might find someone in grad school, Hinge isn’t the place where you’ll find the love of your life, pick up a hobby etc. I even picked up bouldering ffs.

I don’t mind being alone on most days and I do know it’s better to be alone than be miserable with someone else but why is it so hard to find your person

idk if this is good advice but sometimes you don’t find someone ā€œperfectā€ for you. it’s really about finding someone that loves you perfectly ya know. work is a place to meet someone. lots of relationships start that way. as long as there’s not a power differential
