I know some of us say "It doesn't matter! I'll be happy regardless!" but deep inside they think it will be so tough and sad. Others may not really be bothered by the idea of being single forever.
So, what do you think? Will it truly bother you?

Trending & News My answer is a bit mix between A & B
I mean do I miss warmth of being someones special someone? yes
I have the ability to tell when seeing a couple kissing wither that was just "sexual infatuation" or an expression of mutual feelings.
And yeah I hurts when see couples while being single...
BUT -and it is a big Butt here :D *sorry*-
I have few miles of experience on me, and I some how have the ability to predict the future of a matter just by analyzing the data and establish a logical route to predict how will it go. (geeky huh?! :D)
Anyway, based on the current data about my past (psychological & financial) it won't be a wise move to get in a relationship, therefor, I plan my life and rebuild my social skills to fit in to reach the target which is to be emotionally independent.
The issue here is, I wonder why people usually judged such behavior?
I mean isn't private life is the sole privacy of the individual?
Why regard some situations as being "sad" or "good".
Does it bother me? a little bit, should I feel I made a bad choice? NO, because I tried a road and it had a dead end, it won't be a smart move to try the same road again right?
I wouldn't even allow myself to think that way! I do need some privacy at times but being single forever is something definitely to be avoided. I know for sure I'll find my significant other no matter what it takes. And I don't think there is actually something I am "destined" to be especially when it comes to relationships with the opposite gender.
I'm currently single because I'm focused on my career but that doesn't mean I've stopped learning about relationships and how to get along with ladies. And I'll do my best to end up happily married :D
Good mindset!
Being single doesn't mean you're lonely. A person can be in a relationship and feel lonely. I'm 26 and I've chosen to not have had a serious relationship yet because being single is fun since you discover all sorts of people and all sorts of aspect about yourself. Ideally I dream of having a family one day but having been technically single for years proves to me that I could pull that off for years to come because being single is fun!
Basically I disagree with having only two options cos there's lots of inbeteren situations aka living woth someone and not being married, hooking up etc
I think having a good trusting relationship is such a bessing and I have come to appreciate that from being single: so, I'd be so happy if that happened...but I have built the strength to know thy I'd do fine single as well:) cos it's fun and it's better thansettling for something mediocre.
I'm fairly young, and I've been single since the day I came out my moms vagina. I've never really had any problems and there's no telling what will happen in the future. But, I can honestly say, I want to at least experience love in my lifetime. I want someone I can share my life with, someone who's going to be there for me, love me, comfort me when I'm down, kiss me, make love too me, experience new adventures with, be my partner but also my best friend. Someone I can be my weird perverted self around, laugh, go through the thick and thins but still be inseparable. I want to be loved, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't. I don't know what love feels like, but I definitely want to experience it, I really can't imagine myself being single forever.
You are welcome. It was a beautiful answer. :)
It would bother me, I'm the type that likes the idea of sharing my life with someone... making a commitment and going through hard times together and enjoying life together.
I do have a best friend who is like a non-romantic soul mate lol... and other friends so its not like I would be lonely. But of course there's nothing like loving someone and having that in your life.

I think some people are. Whether by choice or past experiences. Not everyone can find someone to share a life with, let alone finding love. Deep down, most of us seek companionship, and most of us will spend our whole lives looking. Some of us may even conform to the kind of love we think we deserve. Will it bother me? Yes, it would. I'd be grateful for the chances I did have, even if they failed, but I'd take heart at the experiences that changed and made me into who I am today, while forever learning to fake a smile.
Yes, it would bother me. Though wall a part of me sees myself as being in a relationship, I'm starting to wonder if it's going to happen.
I've been single too long, but I'm probably looking at another 3-4 years of being single, at least, and that's daunting to think about.
So, I just try to ignore it for now and work on what I need to work on to be a great guy for myself.
It probably would not bother me as much if I were successful at something I loved to do and could distract myself from that issue.
"It probably would not bother me as much if I were successful at something I loved to do and could distract myself from that issue." Exactly!
I may be married now, but I think I can speak for most of us who are from the urban US scene and went to college,and probably didn't hook up with our high school crushes...And in most of he world, people in our category tend to be single for a long time, if not forever...
We've all thought at some point that we might never have a steady companion..what wilth all the frequency of divorces even for those of us who did get married...
And while we thought we would be lonely, I think we actually discovered we weren't any lonelier than the people who were in serial relationships constantly. At least we weren't always in a post-breakup malaise like those 'in a relationship' people seem to always be...
I can't honestly say it would 'not bother me at all' to be single forever...but for sure I wouldn't be bothered a 'lot' given the alternatives...
I do think it would bother me and that it would make me slightly depressed. I would like to share my life with someone that I love. Someone to share plenty of kisses, hugs, and cuddling sessions with. Someone to make smile and show how much she means to me.
That being said, I am prepared to remain single forever if that ends up being the case. Personally, I don't think that I will ever want to have kids and I think because of that there is a greater chance of me ending up alone. Who knows? I might find someone someday.
This is exactly what I want too! In my 40s and still single :-(
"I would like to share my life with someone that I love. Someone to share plenty of kisses, hugs, and cuddling sessions with. Someone to make smile and show how much he means to me."
It wouldn't bother me. I only love and can tolerate my friends and family, anyways.
Plus, I'm not a huge fan of people.
Call me arrogant, if you want. I'll just shrug my shoulders and keep reading my book. That's when I'm at my element and way past the point of really caring what anyone thinks.
My individuality is dependent on proving to myself that I really don't need a close, romantic relationship. I don't understand why people say human beings are social creatures, that we need to be connected. As far as I'm concerned and from what I know, connecting with someone is extremely difficult. Its also never guaranteed that you will make that connection. To me, that just means that human beings want to be connected, but they don't need to be. A need is something that should be met, regardless. A want for something has to be earned and you don't get a connection with another person unless it was through effort and in which case, its decided and thus earned.
It would suck sometimes, but if I were really going to end up alone, I'd still find ways to make myself happy. I'm mostly a loner anyway. I'd like to experience what it's like to care for and be close to another person in an intimate kind of way, but I won't force a relationship that isn't meant to happen.
Forever?Forever-ever?
Yeah,it would bother me terribly.
Right now,being single might not bother me because I'm still young,however,I can't imagine being alone when I am 50.That seems depressing as heck.I've seen that scenario up close and personal and that is not something I would want for myself.
Depends, if I find something I am really passionate about doing that I can spend my life doing. It would not bother me if I had to stay single but without that I would be bothered at being single. A the moment hanging out with my friends and playing sports are good enough reason for me to stay single.
Lol it bothers me now and just the thought of it is scary..but yes I would be really sad about it no matter how much of a front I would be putting up in front of everyone.It one of those things that I can't imagine being single for ever,I want to have the whole relationship thing going on having someone by my side.
i have been single for most of my adult life so far. I am happy right now, but I do believe that you learn a lot of things when you are in a relationship, just as you learn a lot being single as well. I want a good balance of both of these things, not too much one or the other.
I didn't choose to be single,Its the circumstances that make me that way,I tried hard to find some one but seems like I am meant to be single forever and watch other couples hold their hands and cuddle
Wouldnt bother me one bit. I've always been independent and I like to do as I please. Not dealing with another person would be perfect. Don't get me wrong dating and sex is fun but I can do with being alone
At a point it will but at another it won't. No because I could do whatever I like if I wasn't in a realtionship and yes because who would show me love and passion , you have to admit no likes being alone in life.
yes.
I'm a firm believer in self reliance and not settling. I don't want to ever be with anyone for any other reason than love...but I certainly don't want and would never choose to be alone forever either.
I think every single human on this planet desires companionship, no one really wants to be alone. In my heart, I can admit that it would bother me.
I would probably hate it! But I guess I could be content anyway if I decided to. Being single forever might make one obsess over something too much? Like fitness, crafts, cooking etc?
Single? So what? Not a big deal! :P
Actually, for me it's even better.
Hmm living independently in peace! :)
How about you, miss Sally?! ^-^
It would bother me. I'm OK with being single but not forever. :)
It'd bother me... probably too much to really want to deal with. I'd probably be an alcoholic then >.>
Yeah I'd be pretty distraught.
I still believe in love... Somehow. I'd like to get some of that for myself someday!
Nope not a bit. In fact my ideal relationship would be one of maintaing separate residences. Just as place to escape to when I require some space
Humans are social animals wired for intimacy. If an individual doesn't have that social need fulfilled, it could be bothersome.
Hard to say really. But I think at least it wouldn't bother me that much. Spending my life with someone I love has never really been a goal of mine.
Yes it would bother me! That is one of my biggest fears in life. I am a people person so the thought of being alone forever scares the crap out of me.
That would make me frustrated. I love family and children. I'll probably have kids soon. My wife and I are working on it. It is better to be alone than in bad relationship. I found woman of my life. I'm very happy about it.
I already know I am going to be single forever because I am extremely ugly.
I wouldn't feel the best about it but I'm Catholic so I know God is in control of my life and has a good plan for me, I trust His judgement.
A, sh*t I need someone to share the memories with!
-love Sosa
Yes it would bother me sometimes but I also love being alone. And as long as I can be with my mum everythings fine for me :D
It would bother me. I grew up with divorced parents and always wanted to have a strong family unitof my own.
Depends what you mean by single. Never legally married is more than fine to me.
I would want someone to spend the rest of my life with that I could tell anything to and be able to put all my trust in.
nope
just like one of your poll options quote "not one bit" unquote :]
yes. heck it bothers me right now from time to time :/
Yeah, it's great having someone to love and spend all your time and share everything with
i have nightmares of being alone and single... :(
Not if I can still f*ck B!tches.
*shrugs*
Yeah, it probably would.
I would never want to be single forever...
i would fucking shoot myself
It would bug the hell out of me.
I already know am going to die alone
It would bother me a ton
Yes, it would :)
