I’m emotionally changed reading that. I’m single and live in a 1910 schoolhouse in Bisbee, alone, but never lonely. I love my relationship with my creator. As life comes to me, I feel Life, my essence in response. I’m the Cake and others are the frosting. I’m good alone but in other’s presence, it’s dessert time 🍰🍮🧁
Good stuff Jeff. I really agree with the idea that no one can fix a partner. Some people look at love like 1/2 + 1/2 = 1. That might work in math but not relationships. Two healthy people in relationship are much more than the sum of the parts. One may chase a thousand but two can chase 10,000.

I love the cake metaphor, Denelle

Yes! I think relationship math deals with multiples at least, and often orders of magnitude –
½ × ½ = ¼
