Everyone feels lonely. Some feel it so intensely that they go insane. People have died from it. It's not something to write off casually.

The need for others is part of what makes us human. Despite all efforts to the contrary, humanity is at heart a social herd. One must interact with others to remain sane -- or at least rational.

The need for love is not a weakness in and of itself. Some of the choices people have made while influenced by love have been weak, but inferring from this that 'love is weakness' is like blaming a gunshot wound on the bullet and not on the person who fired the gun.

You can be strong and happy with someone or without. But in all likelihood, you will be happier with someone who understands, appreciates, and loves you.

But perhaps your mind is stronger, or more given to independence than mine was. I hope you find the happiness you seek.

ahh...no no...not at all my point....my point being i'd like to be ABLE to be happy without...i know i do not want to go to my grave alone...i wish i could say that it doesn't matter but i know that's not how i feel....this therapisty phrase pops into my head all of the time "you can't be happy with someone until you can be happy with yourself" so i guess i just feel like it's a must really to work on the latter
