Anyone healed without finding fresh love?

Anyone notice how most posts proclaiming it gets better are from people who entered into another relationship or found love again? As soon as I read posts that begin with the same uplifting introduction only to mention their new partner several paragraphs later, I sigh and close the post.

I realise that comes across as bitter, and I admit there is an element of that. Of course it gets better, though, when you can fill one void with another. And I applaud those whose perseverance were ultimately rewarded, specially if they met someone even better.

However, some of us don’t have the same luxury of falling in love again. Some of us knew that person was our person. Some of us aren’t in a position to attract another person, for one reason or another. Some of us just want to know that it gets better as a singleton.

I’d rather see more inspiring posts of those who pulled themselves out of the pits of despair and successfully healed, without the need for another relationship. Because I, for one, desperately need that inspiration.
