3.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. For me , it does get lonely at times, cuz I am so use to being with someone , so I do prefer having a girl by my side , but I don’t want to just find some random girl to be by my side , I want great chemistry and connection with her first before I even consider being in a relationship again , so in a sense I am kind of being picky with who I end up with next , since I had my heart broken a few times before , so I definitely don’t want to experience that again, especially at my age now. So at times I rather be single then to end up with someone that really isn’t good for me. I like taking the slower path with someone over the faster path. I feel my previous relationships has taught me to be wiser about who to accept and not accept into my life , I don’t expect perfect because no one is perfect , but I want a girl that values relationships, that isn’t selfish , that understands boundaries aren’t control thing because they are both set between the both of us to be on the same page with each other so our love for each other can continue to grow. Unfortunately I ended up with girls’ that wanted me to follow boundaries for her, but when it came to following boundaries for me , i was considered insecure and controlling, which wasn’t the case at all. Because all I wanted was to be respected the same way I respected her. So when a girl tries to write Sucker on my head , little does she realize I will start writing Sucker on hers’ if she is pulling shady shit with me. Unfortunately na lot of girls’ think they should be catered to at all times, that think she deserves the princess treatment at all times without having to give in return , that shit doesn’t work with me whatsoever , if she wants to be a princess then she is best to treat me like a prince , not a joker. So until I find a girl that isn’t selfish and only thinks of herself , my ass is staying single.

Nope, not at all.
It used to, when I was younger, and between relationships, but after having a couple of long term, very serious relationships, I find that I'm much happier, and more at peace, being alone.
My last relationship ended about 2.5 years ago, after 15 years together, and I find that I'm not even interested in another one. I'm content to be by myself, and plan to stay alone for the forseeable future.

That's great!
3 moYes, often. However, I’d rather be single than unhappily married. I always keep that in mind.
I also like having no one to answer to or share my money with. I can spend it however I want.

3 moI've not been single for long enough for it to bother me quite yet but it probably will once I've decided to put some effort into finding someone new

3 moYes. It's always much more fulfilling to share experiences with someone at your side than going it alone. I'm not a fan of being single, but I'd also rather be single than end up with someone I'm not happy being with and don't see a future with.
Being single is lonely and unfulfilling. And I'm sick of the world pushing this garbage of making especially women think that being single is empowering.00 Reply
2 moWell being single for a long time can be lonely but it’s important not to get so desperate you’ll settle for anything. It’s better to be alone than to be abused, cheated on, used, and completely miserable.
00 Reply1.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. I've sort of become used to it and incredibly emotionally hardy in a certain sense. I can really look after myself emotionally, and seldom get lonely or needy. It's far from being all sweetness and light, but honestly, it's going to be weird adjusting to being in a relationship again, which I think might happen soon.

3 moWell I'm an introvert and technically single but I can pretty much get a date any time I want so I'm loving my life right now. I have the fun of dates and romance but none of the drudgery and drama of a formal relationship. And I'm free to do whatever I want nearly all the time. That suits me at the moment.

3 moIn away yes being single isn't all that great
Being single offers immense freedom, personal growth, and peace, but it can absolutely feel lonely or challenging, especially with societal pressures. It is often viewed as a valuable time to build self-worth, avoid toxic relationships, and invest in friendships, yet the desire for companionship is normal.

3 moWell yes being single does bother as after certain age your friends are busy in their own life , you also want someone with whome you can share your feelings
You need someone to have sex
You need someone to cuddle
You need someone to hug
You need someone to tease
You need someone who wish good for you
You need someone with whome you will create a life and a mini version of yourself.00 Reply
