The idea that having a significant other will make your life complete or fulfilled is quite far-fetched, which is why it’s best to stay single till you truly love yourself. Finding someone to love you does not make you any more complete than getting a loyal puppy would.
Loneliness is not a good enough reason to get into a relationship. You’ll only end up settling for someone who doesn’t deserve you or worse.
Here’s why we think it’s best to stay single till you can truly love yourself:
Self-love is the purest form of love
Until you’ve learned to truly love yourself you won’t really understand what love is. The ability to value yourself truly and understand that you’re amazing and worth so much is what helps you set a benchmark for what true love should feel like.
Loving yourself will keep you from making unnecessary compromises
It’s easy to lose yourself in a relationship and get stuck in a situation that’s not healthy when you don’t really love yourself. You end up making compromises and giving more than you’re getting, which leads to a lot of heartache.
The truth is, being in a relationship without truly loving yourself is never a good idea. You’re not emotionally or mentally ready for it and you might end up hurting yourself or the other party. So take some time to fall in love with the amazing person you are and then, you can invite someone else into the picture.
