Is anyone else content with being alone until someone(new romantic partner) comes in their life and changes their normal flow, then get dependent on that new feeling of having a romantic partner in life?

I swear I was fine like 3 months ago, being alone, finding things to do, keeping busy and working on my hobbies until old associate and I began a brief romantic encounter for a month off and on. As a person who is usually fine being alone, I found that my happiness suddenly became dependent on if they text me, if we spent the night together or not, if we spoke during the day. My happiness was often met with sadness and disappointed because most days he did not contact me.

Prior to this month of him dropping in my life, I was fine. But now I feel like I am grieving from a breakup that never actually happened. How does this happen? I went from feeling content with the choice of being by myself to spending most of my day wishing I could get a message from him or see him.
