Some people jump from one partner to another, chasing that perfect “one.” They treat relationships like stepping stones—temporary stops until something better comes along. But here’s the thing: using people as placeholders isn’t love, it’s avoidance. It’s running from yourself, from growth, from the hard truth that no partner can fix the emptiness you refuse to face.

If you’re always searching, you’ll never stop to see what’s real in front of you. If you’re collecting hearts like trophies, you’ll never know the depth of one that was truly yours. Love isn’t about finding the one by trial and error—it’s about being ready to recognize and nurture the right connection when it arrives.

And maybe the question isn’t, “Have I found the right person yet?” but “Am I ready to be the right person?”

Because real love doesn’t need constant replacements. It needs presence, honesty, and two people who choose each other—over and over again.
