I agree here. I'd usually rather have someone with me. Someone to talk to, cuddle with, etc. Someone to have fun with, share experiences, life, etc.
HOWEVER, I take care of myself. Through rough patches, where I was struggling to make it and just couldn't, my parents helped by letting me move back home during my divorce. I pay my own bills, I got my own job, I take care of myself, and I like it that way, too. I like not
having to depend on someone. I think that's a difference between independent and dependent. I CAN take care of myself, I LIKE taking care of myself, but I like sharing my life. Even if I were to marry again, which someday I hope to, I still would want to know that I could take care of myself.
