Both lifestyles are a grand adventure!

Everyone single on earth wonders if they are missing out on the couple experience at times, and everyone in relationship (mostly happy or mostly unhappy) envies the freedom & flexible lifestyle of their single friends sometimes!

Gifts & challenges in both directions!
Agreed heartcore. More often than not, I find myself wanting what I don't have. Freedom when in a relationship and a relationship when I'm single.

I think that is because I have recovery to do regarding my codependence.

I think the goal for me will be to strive for balance in all things but especially romantic relationships
