My point isn't that your partner shouldn't bring you happiness, they should. My purpose of the take was that they shouldn't be your only source of happiness. The moment you start living for someone else, is the moment you lose yourself. You give your life, your purpose to someone else and once they leave, you feel like nothing. Like you have nothing.

Out own attitude is one thing that we have COMPLETE control of!
Unfortunately, too many people give control of their attitude to others... and wonder why he/she is so unhappy.
happiness won't come to me unless i bring it myself, that is why it is my responsibility
Yeah but when it comes to love it's hard no have your happiness depend on one person :(
because nobody will bring happiness to me i have to earn it
Anyone can influence ur mood but at the end of the day, you get to decide what and who affects you.
Well, in fact nobody will ever be there for you or understand you better than yourself...
Dang, nobody will even satisfy you better than yourself so...
FAP FAP FAP 4 LIFE!
Everyone should be their own main source of happiness.
It's not as easy as it seems, it's a process not instant gratification
To keep your spirits at a all time high so you can be as happy as possible
Everybody is in control of there own happiness and if you want something bad enough you will work to have it and work to make yourself happy.
so why do i see things like "you make me happy", especially people in relationships..
People say that because the other person brings happiness into there life but are not the only reason for happiness.
@MysteriousDarkness Exactly!

I agree, your life is your responsibility.
Couldn't agree more!
Yep. Single life is the best way to go.
As long as you're happy and content.
Only if you enjoy being single.
I mean I develop trust issues and insecurities in a relationship. So forget it.
I have a lot of trust issues, but that's something you have to work on. You have to find someone who is willing to help you work on that as well.
Life IS good :)
Thanks for the take.
Chase a check never chase a _____ ...
Yes and no, my husband makes me happy! :)
I get what you mean. I'm not saying don't allow anyone to be a reason for happiness, just don't rely SOLELY on them.
It sure is not anybody Else's responsibility.
Fantastic.
You are the master of your choices
I enjoy being single.
Nope it's not my responsibility
@Jordan26 The fact that you think 0% of your happiness depends on yourself is depressing.
That mentality is what brings sadness to a person. I hope one day you realize that it IS your responsibility.
