So, sometimes whenever I’m spiraling, there’s this voice in my head that tells me that I need a partner. It tells me that, even though I don’t want one, I should get one, and if I just stick it out for long enough, I’ll eventually enjoy having one. There’s no real rhyme or reason to it. If I had to guess, I’d say it’s because some part of me feels like getting a partner will prove I’m not a loser, but in the moment it’s just this voice telling me that I have to do it and I’ll feel better if I do. Luckily, I’ve avoided acting on it (ie asking out a friend that I know has a crush on me) thus far. Does anyone else experience this or is it just me?
