Why You Should Stay Single


Listen Later

This Valentine's Day, let's talk about the loneliness no one posts about.

Have you ever felt lonelier in a relationship than when you were single? Physically with someone, yet emotionally miles apart. Longing for a connection that never quite lands.

You're not alone. Studies show 1 in 4 people in long-term relationships report feeling lonely even with someone they claim to love.

Relationships aren't always the "happily ever after" we're promised. But for most people, solitude doesn't feel like a real alternative either.

So what's worse: choosing to be alone, or staying in something that slowly drains you?

And why are we so afraid of being alone in the first place?

🎧 This Valentine's Day, skip the highlight reel. This episode explores the psychology behind loneliness in love, why we settle, and what it actually takes to feel connected to someone else or to yourself.

💔 Share this with someone who needs more than flowers today.
