Is it normal if i feel like i need a guy for motivation after saying i don't?

The thing is I never wanted to be that girl who needed someone to make them happy and motivate them to do bigger and better things, but I can't help the fact that that's kind of happening right now. I always wanted to be the independent girl who only needs herself after all, Ive always been alone and I'm still here; I'm the one who cheers myself up, who makes me happy, who says to keep going, etc. However, I met this guy and honestly Ive never had what I have with him before. It seems like he'll always be there for me as if he really cares about me not to mention in the beginning of us going out, I considered him only as a friend and I could see him as a good friend but he wouldn't give up and eventually won me over. The reason why he grew on me was because of how he treats me. With him though, I feel like I can do a lot because he'll always be there. Right now he's on a trip so I feel really empty like I can't do anything until he comes back. It feels so wrong! Exactly what I didn't want to happen to me. Is this normal?

    Tell me about it! Being independent isn't all that easy, to be honest. I think it's perfectly normal to want to have someone else in your life, who cares about you, someone who actually gives a flip. Hey, we're social animals!

    You should continue to value your independence, but you don't have to be literally on your own in order to do that.
