Are relationship worth the pain of break ups?
Some context, I’m 26, I’ve had 4 major relationships, a 5years one, the others close to 6/7 months. And I had quite a few shorter stories (30 something, while traveling, or just few dates, you get the idea)
They have all ended for different reasons, cheating, disconnection, loss of attraction, you name it.
Do you guys feel like it’s always worth a shot?
For the past 4 years I’ve been single, tried to avoid intimacy due to self protection.
A woman came in my life like a storm, pushed things forward, from strangers to flying to the Philippines together in 3 months.
A week after, she ghosted me and broke up.
I think she is an avoidant, but that’s beside the point… the point is that I was so convinced of not having anymore relationships, and she convinced me otherwise. Just to end in the same way, probably even worse than my previous experiences. I’m quite over it. No biggie.
What do you guys think? Are relationships worth the risk of break up?
Because I feel like the lows are not worth the highs.
