J, I came across this exchange and had to say that I wouldn't yield so quickly to someone trying to convince you that you really don't need others to find happiness/fulfillment. People weren't meant to be lonely. If I could conjure up true happiness from within, I certainly would -- but that just hasn't worked for me. As sentient humans we ultimately need to reach out to others to feel whole, to feel fulfilled. It's not easy bc, as you say, many have their guard up or are have issues that limit them...but that doesn't mean the quest to connect isn't essential.True, and maybe I needed to make that comment to process something in order to let it go and realize no one else can fulfill me.
