Another word of advice for everyone on these boards: do not seek self-discovery by adding someone to your life, add someone to your life only when and if you truly feel ready and open to be yourself and give another person an opportunity to see the person you are happy with when you look into the mirror. Only then will you truly be ready and open to start a new chapter in your life, doing this early will only self-sabotage your efforts and set you back. Only when you are healed or accepting of your destiny and situation can you offer the best of yourself, never offer someone a broken and unhealed soul because you wouldn't want anything but the absolute best you to be seen in someone else's eyes. Do not rush the healing process and do not get into a relationship until you are truly and fully ready. You will know when you are and you will feel it then.
Well put, C. "Self" discovery is about becoming the best you possible. Someone else may complement that best self, but ideally isn't required to be the best you. I continue to wish the best for you and hope the path to healing remains rewarding. Best, P
