fear of being alone

I know I did the right thing breaking up with C (again), but I'm fighting the urge to run back and try to fix things, even though I know that in another month or so, I would be right back in the same place.

My main fear is of being alone. I love having someone to talk about my day with, spend time with, etc. I have lots of friends, but most of them have boyfriends or husbands so I often feel like a third wheel when I'm with them.

I'm only 25, but I'm scared that I'll never meet my mate and get married and have children (something that I want eventually, not right away). Breaking up with the person that I believed would be there to do all this with me has rocked my confidence in men and in love. I love C so much, yet love is not enough.

There are so many wonderful things in life to enjoy, so why am I so scared of being alone?

Breaking up from any relationship is hard enough, but breaking up from someone you love, well done sweetie. I am not sure as to whether I could do this. You have been unbelievably strong, don't give up now! There are loads of people out there looking for someone so don't think that you won't meet someone. You will, but you certainly need time as you still love your ex.
Join new clubs, begin new activities, you could even go on holiday for a while. Enjoy loving and being with yourself so that when that right person comes along, they will too.
Well done again! If you can do what you have done, you can do anything. Luv Samantha x
