I can relate with these.
I spent the entirety of 2010-2020 having my financials and mental health blasted away by my two exes. I've been single for around 8 months now and not even tried to hook up with anyone or start dating during that time. It's been nice and I'm only just beginning to feel like having somebody in my life again, but like the 2nd quote from

, I suffer from a claustrophobia like sensation in long term relationships.
I'm definitely going to be extremely picky if I do start dating again and may just stay single. Looking at myself, I wouldn't be worth dating right now anyway.
