I’ve been single for a year and am starting to feel like I want to get into a new relationship. But I still haven’t understood whether my process of individuation (which began right after the breakup) is serving as a support or an obstacle to that. I’d like to hear your thoughts on this with a general question and a more personal one:

1. After you started delving deeper into Jung’s work, do you analyze factors like ego, persona, and projection in this kind of context? For me at least, this has become practically systematic!
2. How can I tell if I’m really ready, or if this desire is actually a need to fill some void or prove something (to the other person or to myself)? Due to this awareness, it's been hard to figure everything out.

It would be great to hear other people’s experiences!
