Oh boy! There's lots of hurt, scared and fragile women on Medium, as many of these comments show. :-)

I think this articles expressed a basic - and obvious, in my POV - truth: we are a social species, we need each other, we need fulfilling relationships to live meaningfully. Any sane psychologist will confirm this.

When one denies and oppose this simple human basic trait, usually it means s/he is quite disturbed and/or traumatized. Hence s/he sees relationships as mostly dangerous instead than fulfilling.
