Why do so many comments online talk about how we don't need a relationship or friendship, yet we're a social species that relies on connection to not become mentally stressed out from loneliness?

Like yeah, i get it. Our relationship with ourselves is the best relationship, blah, blah, blah.

I have enough confidence and assurance in myself to recognize and apply this into action

I've heard this many times when i see posts online of people talking about relationships

But at the end of the day, we're a social species.

We do need connection in some capacity or else we become lonely and act out in ways that we think will mitigate our loneliness, only to worsen it in the long run

I don't know why people don't ever acknowledge this and instead promote ✨️self-love✨️ as if anyone can obtain it within a snap of a finger

Or act like if they do have it, it's somehow gonna make us not want a relationship or friendship anymore even tho we're biologically wired to desire that sort of thing

Even the most introverted of introverts still need it

Or if someone hates humans, they'll likely find it through pets or a plant

It just doesn't make any sense to me when people just say "do ABC and you won't need XYZ"

People still have that desire and need no matter what
