We all recognize and have felt the pain of not being in an intimate relationship. We feel bad, like something’s missing. Yes, we’re okay by ourselves, being on our own. But there is an actual physical and emotional pain sometimes that goes with not having a mate.

Then when we finally find a mate that pain goes away. We feel whole, happy, fulfilled in a deep emotional way. We are in what can be called the honeymoon phase of a relationship, the first few months when it’s all wonderful. That pain of not being in a relationship has gone away.
