Could you live the rest of your life single??

Recommended Posts

Hells yes!

As a matter of fact, I think I will. My recent bouts with dating have proven that I don't have the time or patience for anyone else in my life. I'm way to selfish now and I really don't care about anyone but myself. People are too needy and shit and I'm a fucking bitch. Ask anyone!

I don't even have time for a pet.

You will feel that way - until you meet that one person - the one that makes you realize that life really wasn't WORTH living without them.

Not very many people meet that person.



Exactly, and the fact is too many people try to shoehorn someone else into being that person just so they won't be alone.

See the "dating sucks" thread for more on this whole phenomenon. Too much game playing when in reality, it ought to be quite a bit more organic than that. If it's right, it's right. It hasn't been right for me, yet (at least not mutually!) so I'm still single. And living my life fully.

I can still remember my real estate agent (female) telling me when I bought my house 2 1/2 years ago "Good for you for not waiting for a man to buy a house." I just looked at her and said "I waited until I was financially ready to do it. Whether I was single or not never entered into the equation."

Doesn't mean I have given up on finding that mythical soulmate who will make me realize all that I've been missing, but till then, I'm going to enjoy my life anyway.

Actually the one from sunday is semi-serious I think. She is even trying to set me up with one of her friends.

well?? ;)

I bet I could, though I doubt that will happen. To me, having someone to share life with is a bonus, but they are not my reason for living.

What about you?



Sure. I felt complete and was often very happy with life before meeting my soul mate. I'm not sure how long that would be though - I did nearly everything I wanted to before my 30th birthday and would have rather been done by 40 (much sooner when things were crappy).

Don't ever settle for less than what you want and deserve.



I could never settle for someone whose standards were so low that they would settle for someone like me.

I always thought I would until I met my boy-toy almost 5 years ago now. Being in love and sharing your life is incredible;).

Having said that, if God forbid, this not work out, I wouldn't have any problems on my own. I'm ridiculously independant.

I hate to say it, but I would really rather not spend my life single. It's not the vision I've ever had for myself, and I don't really want it to change. If and when it comes down to that being my destiny, I'll deal with it then . . . not sure how well, but I'll deal with it nonetheless. [:/]

This actually was a sign of how much my boy-toy cared about me---I bought my first house when I was 23, (a little over a year ago). In short, it was very important to me, but my hunny wasn't ready, even though legally I'd be the only one techinically committed to it. Despite the fact that it scared the sh!t out of him, he still worked so hard on upgrading it with me/for me and put a lot of his own time and money into it.

Whether you are in a relationship or not, you have to stay true to yourself and the things you want or it will never work out/never be happy.

Good for you, NWFlyer for doing that;):P
