Fall in Love with your Ownself



From the very early stages in our lives we are told that we need a ‘partner’ to persist in this world. The very likes are molded in a way that we conform to the idea of an ideal partner, girls are taught to cook, and the whole financial burden is put on the shoulders of the men and they are trained to be the head of their families. What the society oversees in this stereotypical structure is the need to grow as an individual; in the process becoming that eidolon the person loses their true identity. Their world revolves with their significant other as the center.

By the time we hit adolescence, a dating guide crammed up in our heads. We know all the dos and don’ts, we know how we have to attract that person of the other gender but what we don’t know is the true likes and dislikes of our own selves. The whole life is spent in finding that one person but we forget the most significant person of the all, ourselves.


At the end, the society will only shun you for doing anything that they deem wayward or unethical; no matter what you do you are going to be judged. Being completely satisfied with the person we are is a luxury we generally overlook, we define ourselves by the relationships we have had and in that process we lose ourselves. The only person whom you can actually depend upon is yourself, so I suggest you to get in a relationship with yourself. Go out alone, develop your own ideas unadulterated by the opinions of the society. Take out every first date ideas or how to guide to nab a person to stick by you from your mind and start worrying about yourself.
