The Importance of Working on Yourself in a Relationship

When we have a partner in our lives, it's very easy to push down our negative feelings towards ourself. When they're gone, you kind of feel left in the lurch and you feel abandoned. But all of that is irrelevant to this man. The pain is just highlighted because he is not there as the bandaid. And sometimes, unfortunately, sometimes it takes someone leaving us for us to realize that the only person that's going to be there for us to pick ourselves up and to make ourselves happy is ourselves.
