Attachment causes so much suffering.

I lost my 1 year old cat yesterday she was with me for just around 10 months but i was attached to her. I loved her more than my life. Now the pain doesn't subside , i wish I never had been so attached to her, sometimes even never adopted her( for which I feel bad ) so i wouldn't have to feel this. I don't want anyone else to feel these emotions, no deserves to lose their loved ones. To think that I'll have to mourn atleast three more individuals ( mom, dad, or maybe my brother) in future, makes me wish that I was never born. Why is there such inexplicable suffering in this world.

True... I also broke up recently, I really loved her and still do. Just managed to cut contacts with her yesterday and I'm already feeling a lot more miserable than ever. I too wish I was never so attached with her, but it is what it is ig. Strictly speaking, it's just our brain craving that dopamine rush we always have when we spend time together with that person/ animal or object, it will take some time for it to adjust and rewire itself. The process is painful but let's hope we make it to the other side safely... Life is truly suffering but I still crave that blissfulness to give up right now, I will probably go through this again? Several times at least, but I'm too addicted to the feeling of having someone just for myself to really care about it... Good Luck (:

I agree I wish I wasn't so attached to my relationship
