Do not be with someone who makes you dependent, even in the name of care or love. Do not watch a film series, or a web series, or a TV serial that kind of makes you addicted. The ‘I’ wants to get attached. And if the object that the ‘I’ is choosing to get attached to is such that it promotes attachment, then it is a double whammy; then it is a loss multiplied by a loss.
You are already sticky;you already carry that stickiness within. You want to just go and stick to something or somebody. Now, if you find an object which is equally sticky, or rather which promotes stickiness, then what happens? There is total dependence. So, avoid that.
