monophobia
Many ppl have the fear being alone / single . They always need other ppl to keep them company . Maybe that's why Adam had Eve ; Mickey has Minnie ... Even Barbie has Ken !!!
When asked in a recent poll what they feared the most , many ppl answered “ being alone ” . In fact , Some ppl actually have extreme anxiety about being alone that they end up having mono-phobia .
Yesterday I had a chat with my frd HY . We discussed many things including her fear of being alone . Tho she doesn't suffer from monophobia , her fear of being alone does cause a certain level of anxiety and depression . She feels alone in Canada , without her security blanket she always has that sense of insecurity . And I think that is the reason why she misses so much being in a relationship , especially in the holiday season when everyone around her is partnering up . I do understand her feeling , it's very much like playing a game of musical chairs ~ when the music stop , you're the only one without a chair ... which makes you feel like a loser !
But sometimes I think the cure for any type of anxiety is to put yourself in the situation you fear and work thru it . So if you fear planes , you should fly more regularly. If you fear being alone , you should learn to be happy and survive on your own ~ Yup , a mate / marriage doesn't guarantee you will get rid of the loneliness or have quality time with one another ... sometimes it's just being lonely ~ together !!!!
