Long story short, I had a difficult childhood and some very difficult relationships in my late teens and early 20s. Either they were abusive or I ended it for one reason or another.
I have a 4yo dc and have so desperately wanted to provide stability but have actually ended up careening from one messy relationship to another. I feel very guilty about this.
I'm now in a relationship with someone and we're engaged. I've suddenly gone cold which is what I do, i have this thing where I feel as though I'm better alone , and me and dc would just be better on our own, me as an independent single mother. I need a lot of space and feel stifled and confined in relationships. I thought this one was different but then I always do.
Am I just meant to be alone or can/should I be in a relationship? I'm so confused, I just don't know what to do or what to think

Are some people just meant to be alone?
