Conventionally, it could be said that the mindset of someone believing that they are nothing without their partner&amp;amp;mdash;in other words, defining their identity in terms of the other person&amp;amp;mdash;is a dangerous and unhealthy sentiment. A person should have enough self-identity and sense of self-worth to know that they have value even outside the context of a relationship.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
