Are You Actually Ready for Love — or Just Lonely?

Are You Actually Ready for Love — or Just Lonely?
Being alone is hard. So hard that sometimes anyone feels better than nobody.

But loneliness looks a lot like love when you are desperate enough. It blurs the line between 'they are good for me' and 'they are just here'.

I learned this the hard way. Every time I chose someone out of loneliness, I ended up lonelier than before.

So ask yourself honestly: are you ready for love, or are you just afraid of the quiet? Because the person you attract when you are whole is very different from the person you attract when you are empty.
