I had two thoughts. 1) Words can hurt. 2) Try your best.

What would your note say? heart

In three words? Gosh okay, probably "you are enough" or "don't overwork yourself".

I would say, tell someone,

Dont let them hurt you anymore, never get married, and its okay to have dreams.

you dont have to live up to those expectations,

its okay to cry.

its ok to be sad.

and its ok to tell someone that your being hurt.

I would say that happiness cannot be found without connection to others, and that I am no different in this respect. It may feel safer to need no one....to be an island. But it won't bring happiness. Trust is an important thing to learn. Learn how to let people in slowly, and to choose those you trust carefully. But learn how to take down the walls. Learn to be emotionally vulnerable with the people you choose. It will be okay. They will not turn away in disgust. By letting people see all that you are, you can learn that you will be found acceptable, even loveable. You will find that your vulnerability makes others feel more comfortable to be emotionally open as well. Ultimately, it will make you better at loving others, and the act of loving will bring you more joy than receiving it.

To my younger self, I'd like to say that your present is so much precious and happier than your future's gonna be. Perhaps it's the happiest time of your life. Future is full of just anger and emptiness, a deep hole in life, who knows, perhaps it can get better :)
