Would you rather die alone or settle for less?

[kereru]

it seems like all my friends around me either delude themselves or just take what they can get, some of them go out with real assholes, or with people who they don't particularly even like, and some of them even say flat out "I'm afraid of being alone"

my mum preferred to go out with an alcoholic for almost 2 years rather be on her own.

sometimes I feel like I'm strange because I don't really "need" someone like other people do. I d rather die old and alone and get discovered two weeks later half eaten by rats then end my days with someone I don't really love.

I don't want to resign myself to the idea of spending my life with someone who I don't completely connect with on the deepest kind of level. some people say its part of growing up, but that's too f***ing depressing!

I'm going to hold out until I meet that person who really makes my heart skip...even if it never happens.

what about you guys?

I understand how you feel, it's odd but it's not necessarily a bad thing. Now I'm not quite sure what you mean by settle for less, but I do know I would not. If I'm going to look for someone to spend the rest of my life with then I'll look for someone I'm attracted to physically first, because if you're not at least somewhat attracted to someone well... don't marry them, of course when I say physically attracted I don't mean look for someone who's insanely hot I mean just look for someone you're attracted to. That's the easiest thing, then you just have to find someone who you're happy with, someone who's not just a lover but a best friend. The physical side is easier to find but the most import part to me is the connection, and it's not always there, so I'm kinda happy just chillin where I am.

You can't live life to it's fullest with someone you don't care about or don't care much about. I'd rather wait a long time for the right person, and nobody says that will lead to passing away alone. Waiting ensure that I'll find someone with similar ideals, morals, and values. Someone who will understand respect, trust, integrity, honesty, etc.

I would Never date someone that I do not have feelings for and would never settle for anyone less than perfect for me =)

If you settle for someone that you don't really like then the one who is right for you comes by you'll miss each other because you are already taken...

Only one life so either do it right or not do it at all =P

I would rather die alone. Settling for less is never worth it and deep down you feel like a sell-out. It have settled before in the past and it felt like I was selling my soul.
