In 2023, Brazilian influencer Suellen Carey made headlines when she chose to marry herself, a decision that drew considerable attention. Now, a year after her self-marriage ceremony in London, Carey has decided to end this unconventional commitment.
While she valued the experience of self-discovery, Carey found that the solitude became overwhelming. “I learned that while self-discovery is important, knowing when to close a chapter is crucial too. It was a valuable experience, but I feel ready to move forward,” she explained.
Carey admitted that the constant pressure to be perfect for herself was exhausting. “The hardest part was the pressure to be flawless all the time. I realized I was demanding too much from myself, which was draining. Even in a marriage with oneself, it’s important to embrace our imperfections,” she shared.
In a recent interview, Carey revealed that her high expectations were unattainable, leading to significant fatigue and loneliness. This realization prompted her decision to seek a genuine partnership.
Before ending her self-marriage, Carey attended ten therapy sessions to address the challenges she faced with sologamy. Through this process, she explored her feelings and sought to resolve her issues. Ultimately, she concluded that ending her self-marriage would be a crucial step in her healing and personal growth.
