Scenario

When you realize you've been performing belonging instead of finding it

I have been going to the same church for fifteen years and know everyone's names but when my husband left I realized none of them actually know me and I feel more alone than when I was new.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You have confused social integration with authentic connection and must now face the loneliness that performance cannot heal.
