If I love being single, is it a true preference or a coping mechanism?

Is loving being single a genuine preference or just a coping mechanism for being unable to maintain a healthy relationship?

Humans are social animals who evolved to thrive and live in tribes, not turn into loners or live in isolation. We are designed to want sex, affection, love. It is abnormal to not want these things

Marriage has never lost its value. It's just that you can't do marriage

Could be both.. .

I love being single, I can go out and date as many hot guys as I want, travel anywhere I want, flirt and not be guilty, be at peace, be free and happy at life.

But deep down, I crave sharing this happiness with someone.

It could be for some people. I definitely believe most people are better off with someone else, but it can be hard to find that person, especially in today's modern world. Personally, I've gotten used to being alone, but would definitely like to find someone compatible.

Only the individual can know that for themselves.

What do you mean, "you can't do marriage"?

As someone who “loves” being single, you’re in the best position to ask this question. Like do you personally feel as though you’re just trying to cope because you can’t maintain a healthy relationship?

AI reworded the question. I didn't write it

Does it matter? You do you. If you want to be single, be single.👍
