Re: detachment

@Nisha25

how does one learn how to do that? i get close to people and when i develop a deep connection to them i get so afraid i’ll lose them and i did lose a friend that i developed such a strong, almost soulmate(in friendship) bond with, this particular person had to move back to the home country b/c of some issues(private ones).

i’ll say that this person was almost like a guardian angel of sorts when i really needed somebody by my side during a very difficult, scary time we were there for each other, learned so much from one another and now there’s a void where this person existed.

we’re both better people b/c of the influence we had on each other, or atleast speaking only for myself, i am so much more confident and strong now more than i was before.

i’m just trying to learn it so that i can master this art for the tough times to come, has anything ever worked for anybody else, it’s hard to be totally apathetic to another person for me

It’s always difficult losing people when we get close to them. Life happens and things change. You shouldn’t have an attitude of keeping your distance from people, because sometimes people are just in our lives for a brief period. And if you gain anything positive in that brief period, it makes it all the more worth while.
