I see women talk about valuing their peace over finding a partner. I have hobbies, a career, so many incredible friends, dependable family both given and chosen. I am finally moving into my own place next month. I buy flowers for myself and take myself out to dinner frequently. I feel okay doing things alone.

So when does the sadness about potentially never finding a partner go away? When will I stop thinking about it? Do you have to consciously do the work or does it eventually become easier the more you practice it?
