How do I stop idealizing relationships and people?

[Intothevoid666]

I’ve never been in love and maybe I’m way off but I feel like I’d be waaay happier if I was. Maybe I just use the thought of being in love with someone as a coping skill or something. But like I see people who are in relationships and they seem so happy and I’ve never had one and it’s hard not to think I’d be happier in one and like I know obviously all my problems wouldn’t be solved then but like I don't know any tips? Is being in a relationship as good as I’m making it out to be?

If your not happy single you won't be able to have a happy relationship either.

I’m happyish single but I don't know not having a consistent sex life or emotional Intimacy year after year would make anyone sad no?
