I would never assume that I would live alone for the rest of my life. It's great to have a steady relationship, or even marriage, yes. But I would never torture myself for being alone. If I've learned anything in my teenage years it's that a companion isn't everything. In my opinion, the most important thing's in my life are: My health, My Positivity, and My Family. People come in and out of my life everyday, so why should I worry about one staying put? If it happens for me, it happens. I'll be happy of course, but being by myself and getting to know me wouldn't kill either.
Great respond
thank you, I appreciate the feedback.
People are brought alone to this world and they die alone too. It is the truth whether you like it or not.
All the encounters that we have during our life fulfill our moments, but your existence and life events does not depend on other people. You can be surrounded by many friends and be alone. You can be in a relationship and feel alone. It all comes from your attitude and level of comfort with yourself. If your heart is fulfilled with good cause, happiness, compassion, you will never feel alone and the right people will always be in your life.
That quote always irked me. While it looks oh so good in theory, it doesn't hold up. Half the time they will be surrounded by family and loved ones, and a lot of times their significant other will be there too.
people that think about the future too much are naturally under more stress and anxiety then people who are focusing on what's happening in their lives right at that moment. don't worry about the future just focus on what's going on in your life right now. good things will happen. focus on the people who are in your life right now and how awesome they are for being in it, because were only here for so long. people really need to get to know themselves as a person an individual that thinks for themselves before getting into a healthy relationship not a co dependant one. no I don't think iam going to be alone, I've got god by my side all the time I never feel alone
Ummm sort of...
I'm still in love, I still want to be with my ex, and at the moment being with other people has a very bad effect on me.. (I run out the room crying, I get very defensive, I stop eating and sleeping and I start being sick as well)
So currently, yes I think I will be. I feel like I'm meant to be with my ex, but he is in a different place to me. I can't be with anyone else, and it's not lack of trying, but for my health it's best for me to be alone. Maybe it's just not my time.
I do hope in the future for something to happen though. But right now, I just don't want to be around other people really :)
Couldn't agree with you more! And you kind of answered your own question lol
But if you wanted to know:
I think there is some (quite high unfortunately) chance that I might not get married. One is because I have a set of goals- of things to do before I die. And they are very all over the place and I don't know if someone is going to be up for that kind of lifestyle before settling down.
And the second reason is because I refuse to "play the game". I am not going to play around with him to get his attention, play hard to get, or not answer a text to make him curious. I am going to be me- 100% and if he can't handle that fine. The problem is most people who have that attitude, don't tend to get married. So no, I am not complaining about it, and it would be nice to have someone, but that just isn't likely and currently isn't even an option. (I'm still living at home and my life is a little complicated at the moment.)
Not to mention the gay guys are taking all our candidates
;)
I did, but it didn't bother me much honestly. I have loving friends and family. And career ambitions to focus on. Actually, I liked being single because it made it easier for me to focus on my schoolwork. Then lo and behold, I get a boyfriend when I least expect it. I think as long as you're comfortable with yourself and give yourself opportunities to meet new people, something will happen eventually.
Then again, I'm still in my first relationship. Maybe being single after experiencing what dating is like sucks. :(
Unquestionably, I will perpetually be alone. That is, if I do not do a full alteration of my personality. And why the hell would I do that? For the sake of love? F***no. I mean, who the hell would love me besides myself and my friends?
Sure, I've been told that I can be a pleasant, adorable and sweet person when I want to be and not a cold, cynical, sarcastic and acerbic tongued bitch but how lacklustre is that? I prefer myself the way I am and if other people don't like that...how the hell is that my problem?
I’ll be alone because that’s my choice. And even if it’s not, I’m not going to cry and whine about it. I’ll just get laid.
i hope I don't stand alone, but there's not that many decent girls to go after; I've met afew, but there taken, and there are some girls that I have connections with, but there are some things that some can't accept; the way I see it; life is getting worst; and we are living among lies; if I stay alone well; OK, I'll die in a nursing home or some thing, but I will do good in life and injoy it; I'll give to the poor, and be the weak that would lead the strong, I'll make friends everywhere and travel where life takes me, and if I live by faith to the point no man can; maybe be take from this life with out receiving death like Enoch from the bible
we all die to come out of our fleshly shells, into our true forms, its eternal death that people should worry about. there's somebody out there for everyone
well I'm a high school junior and I've only had one boyfriend and I only let it last for about 2 weeks and it was because I got tired of him always breathing on me when I was with my girls. I do think of it when I see all my friends with theirs boyfriends or girldriends and I'm the 1 that doesn't have that special someone. I sometimes think I'm gonna be single for ever because I'm crazzy not in a sycho way but I like to do fun/daring stuff I'm random and loud and I love to talk. And maybe it will change when I'm much older buteveryone is getting married right out of school so what are the chances of finding a guy that will like me for who I am and not for who they want me to be. AS well astreat me right and not bully me or cheat on me. But only time will tell and I know I'm still young so I have plenty of time but its not on my priory list I'm focusing on my schools and then carear and the rest is unknown.
yes I do.
Im okay with it aswell. I work alot, and have a very busy life. Every relationship iv had has been to much for me to follow up on. I don't do somthing right they get angry, I do do enough they hate me, I go above and beyond they take advantage. I'm better with casual dating.
im also more of an animal person lol, I don't want kids I want dogs. and possible a horse one day:)
the way I live my life, I can be a hermit at times. I go out and I enjoy my friends and social events, however when I'm done, I'm done. pluse I love liveing by my own schedual, I do what I want when I want no one telling me otherwise.
I do better alone.
Yeah I feel that way, though I will eventually get married from an arranged marriage. I think this because I'm really shy, and even now when I think about it, I only talk to a few guys, one of them being gay and the others being unattractive in my opinion. I'm just really shy, and I hardly ever talk to guys unless they talk to me first, that's just the way I am. BUT I am not sad about this. Yeah I get all these desires to want to be held in a man's arms and of course sexual desires kicked in a few years back and blah blah blah but I don't cry a river thinking about the fact that I may never fall in love. I mean, I have so many friends that I love and I love my whole entire family and even though I've never dated before, I've never particularly wanted to, and I've always been content with my life. So yes to that I'll never fall in love, but no to that I'll always be in a state of misery about it.
My motto is, "I am one of the nicest people you will ever meet in life." That's exactly what I do and for a shy/quiet guy, I am pretty damn social and anytime I make a new friend, they are surprised how polar opposite my real friends are to me.
So yes, I don't have a problem socializing, but it seems like all the girls I do like, don't like me and all the girls that have made it obvious that they like me (except for one), I didn't like more than just friends.
I know I won't be alone forever, but at the same time I don't enjoy the wait at all. 20 years and waiting.
Man this is one massively long list I was going to read it, but I changed my mind. Too answer the question no I don't think I'll be alone forever. And I know I'll have to work really hard to achieve that goal. And to be honest I don't really see how I'm going to pull it off. But what I do know, is that giving up isn't really my style. And there isn't in anything better in life. So I'm going to keep fumbling in the darkness, with my hands outstretched until I find that special someone. And when I do I'm going to hold on like my life depends on it(because it does). Oh and if you want to know how hopeless I am(I know, I'm still young). But I am a 20 year old virgin, who's only had one girlfriend for around 30 day's. And I have only felt the lips of a woman 5 times(Her my gf).
Let me quote a Buddhist monk I know; 'there is single suffering and there is relationship suffering, they are different types but the amount of suffering is the same". Basically what that means is while you may sort of idolize and fantasize about being in this wonderful relationship, you're not picturing the crap that happens in relationships as well, even good relationships. I've been single for a long long time, mostly cause I'm really shy, but also cause I really don't care that much. All you're doing is trading one type of suffering for another.
I don't know if I'll be alone forever, but it's a big fear or mine.
The frightening part is the fear that what they say about real love, about it being all special and everything in movies and books and pretty much everywhere might be true.
Does the fact that I've already thrown away someone I actually really loved mean that I've lost my chance, that chances are I won't have that with anyone again? There's certainly the argument that I don't deserve it, but so many of the people I know can so confidently say, "no I've never been in love". Surely, of all the people I know there'd be more than 2 other people who can say, "yes, I've really been in love" and surely there'd be someone who could say they've felt that way on more than one occasion? That's what scares me, that I've blown the only chance I'll get already, which is bad enough when you're already sick with guilt because she deserved better.
Honestly at this point in time I'd say I'd be perfectly content "dying alone" as long as I have some other companions (friends, family, whatever). If I was stuck on a desert island with no other human companions then I'd definitely be depressed.
I don't really think about it much because I'm not even interested in a relationship anytime soon anyway.
Whatever happens, happens. Both ways of life--singlehood vs. relationship--have their good points and bad points so I may as well just focus on the good whichever way I end up going.
I do believe that I'll end up dying alone. And, ultimately, what does it matter? The world won't suddenly become a better place if, on the very slim off-chance, I ever get a girlfriend. Sure, it'd be nice for ME if it DID somehow end up happening, but I've come to terms with the high probability of my eventual death in solitude. Hey, at least, this way, fewer people get hurt when it happens.
Do I get sad about it sometimes? Of course I do; perhaps more than I should. But, life is transient, so anything I happen to end up accomplishing in this life is all more or less meaningless, anyway. Good thing I've never really had much in terms of ambition, then.
While I don't really think I'll be alone forever, the mentality does get to me, especially never having that "true love" sorta thing and just year-long lovers, here, there, and between.
Mainly based on my past, and thinking ill never be able to understand what to do around girls. Like, I could be what you could call "myself" and never get anyone because I'm not displaying the traits girls deem attractive, or I could try to be flirtatious and confident and not ever get that girl who would truly love my original personality.
I am of those people that really do believe I'll be alone forever and it really doesn't bother me. I don't know why, but I can't seem to ever get emotionally attached to any guy. If I start liking them and we end up dating, I literally wake up one morning and the feeling just vanishes. It also doesn't help that I really don't believe in love. Every relationship that I see amongst my friends and family is f***ed up beyond belief and if they're so-called "madly in love"... I think they're just obsessed with each other and it's pathetic.
Yes, I'm not one to give up easily but the people I date seem to... But with my job I'm going to be away 8-10 months of every year until I'm forty. What girl/woman will wait that long to see me, i.e. date me for two months each year without falling for someone who is always in their life? If I were to wait until I am forty then who am I going to date? A lot of people will have settled down by then, and the people left may not be suitable as I'm rather picky. And I'd have no idea were to start meeting people my own age since my life had consisted of being entirely introverted. To be honest I could list problems all day, I mean I haven't even talked about the problems I bring into relationships...
If a girl really loves you, she can wait as long as you ask her to wait. Or as she needs to wait. Sounds maybe weird but it's true.
Yes, but she probably won't have time to fall in love with me... I'd probably be around for about a week at a time before going off again. Even if I'd met someone on the first day I think it's abit much to hope she loves me by day seven... considering girls I'd dated for months barely managed it. Then again I'm pessimistic.
Nouschka, that is bad thinking because it isn't true at all, even if it may have been at some point. That way of thinking is only for the movie Frozen and things like that. When it comes to real life, girls will only accept either what they want or what is available to them. Nobody is going to wait for anyone because nobody wants to end up alone. Its just the way of our generation.
