all my life i’ve attached myself or pieces of myself to the social groups i’ve been apart of and chased relationships to feel better about myself. In recent years i dated a girl i really liked and got extremely attached to where i couldn’t see worth in myself or my life without her and this carried on for a long time after the break up.
It’s been really hard to get past this attachment and see her move on because of all the things it made me feel about myself and i recognise low self esteem has played a part all my life in attaching myself to others for validation.
Is there anyone who’s been through this or knows how i can correctly go about fixing myself for good?
