Connection and bonding are just sound ways to rephrase "depending".
In the end you can't be independent emotionally or mentally, or stick to your goals and ambitions and you need someone else.
Besides the aforementioned. I personally never even understood what bonding or connecting is, it seems to be delusional, made up, and weak.
I can understand uniting with others to achieve a common goal or ideal, but not bonding. Never wanted it, never sought it.
Even in my past relation ships which went to hell and beyond, admittedly I was obsessed to a sickening level. But not with the person, but rather what that person could be molded to.
When that obsession didn't meet success, I "sperged".
But it was never about the person, I doubt I can care about a person as a person cause I understand people way too much. And they seem like replicas of each other with slight differences that I couldn't care less about.
On top of that I never desired consciously or subconsciously to be connected or loved. NPD mommies or even hard to get virgins seemed like trophies to me to add in my cognitive collection of accomplishments.
Now mind you, I'm an ego driven individual. Therefore all of this might be biased due to how it's filetered by my own personal bias.
Objectively wise however, speaking purely scientifically without any opinions but sheer facts. Evolution made people develop emotions of neediness or horniness to reproduce.
The brain functions that activate "dopamine" serotonin" or other "good chemicals" are actually there for a functional purpose.
And it has been proven that romantic obsession can be as addictive as heroin.
Given all this, unless I see a person capable of doing something with someone not explainable with science or researches. I will never believe in bonding.
Unless it is ideological.
