How Do I Know If I Am Ready for a Relationship?
In short, sometimes I really crave a relationship, and sometimes I think I am not in a good enough mental state, and I need to focus on myself more. This is fine right now, as I am fairly young, but I feel like I could easily fall into this trap of bouncing between the two thoughts for a long time, resulting in never being in a happy relationship. What do you think makes a person "ready" to be in a relationship? Is someone with emotional or other mental difficulties handle a relationship?
Let me know what you think. Thanks!

I completely understadn how you feel, but there is no really being "ready" for a relationship. Most relationships just happen over time with the help of other emotions. But to be is a good mental state for a relationship is mostly you knpow that you are in a stable enough mental statethat ou will not hurt your partner in any way, physical and mental. I know you feel like you want to get into a relationship and I have to say you need to be careful and not enter a harmful relationship. Not only do you need to make sure you yourself is ready for the relationship, but you also need to make sure your partner is ready to be in a relationship. You also should make sure you don't enter a harmful relationship such as an abusive one etc. Most importantly you need to make sure that you aren't entering a relationship because you want a relationship, but because you want THAT particular relationship. I know you want to be a relationship, but only enter a relationship for the right reasons. If you want to talk more, you can message me anytime. :D I hope the best for you. :)
@smallnsleepy I definitely agree with Snowflake. I think with time, when you meet the right person, a real relationship will happen for you. The important thing is that you don't force it and end up getting in a relationship that you will regret later on. Being in the right state of mind also involves you being able to compromise and work with the person who you get into a relationship with. It also involves you being ready to communicate and respect that other person. If these are things that you are capable of than all you need is time to find that special someone.
