How do I harden my heart for a life alone? I tried love and I don’t think I can do it, and it seems I can’t ask my friends for help. How do I mentally and emotionally prepare for a life of solitude and be happy? No bs “get help” either just advice

I feel like that’s the wrong way to go about it, just be open to whatever, go with the flow instead of being too ossified in any which way. Life just is, we don’t control it, find happiness as it pops up in your life. If you have friends, you’re not really alone at all. A soft heart and Mind with firm ethical bounds is a lot better than something scarred and hardened. Hard hearts are not happy

Love isn’t constrained to romance, you can love your family and friends, you can love nature, art, your passions, yourself, etc. Real love shows up as care, so care for said things
