"توانایی تنها بودن شرط توانایی دوست داشتن است"

Simplified Meaning:

Being comfortable with spending time alone means you know yourself very well and are okay with who you are. When you like yourself and enjoy your own company, you’re not with others just to avoid being alone. This makes your relationships more genuine, because you’re not relying on someone else to feel complete. Imagine a person who always needs friends around to feel happy. This can put too much pressure on those friends. But if that person learns to be happy alone, then when they are with their friends, it’s because they truly enjoy their company, not because they need them. In a romantic relationship, if both people are confident and happy alone, they come together by choice and can love more purely. It’s like building a strong, independent foundation before making a house. Learning to be alone helps you love others better because you’re not filling an emptiness, but sharing your already full life.
