People who are needy or desperate to get into a relationship are often doing it - or wanting to for selfish short sighted silly reasons which they have not really thought through properly. If you are looking for a partner to complete your life, to put the cherry on the top of the cake, great, if you have a lot to offer in return, great it will work out. But if you are clingy, needy, very lonely and wanting someone for selfish reasons you will either fail or lose the person when they work this out. The best person for a relationship is someone who is happy single too, and is not needy.

I was totally happy being single until I started dating this one guy. We dated for 3 years, and over that time I realized that having that special relationship with him was something that I didn't even know I was missing out on beforehand. Now without that kind of relationship in my life, I don't feel lonely, but I do feel like I'm missing out. It definitely made me realize that I think everyone deserves to be loved.
My goal in life is to always be happy. And I have been. I met my boyfriend and he always asked me if I was happy with him. I told him no, that I was already happy before him, but that he makes me happier. If he and I broke up, would just go back to being happy. But then I never dwell on being single or see it as a negative. I believe all things happen as they are supposed to and in their own time.
I am not depressed about being single but I would like to find a dream man soon, because I want babies. I am at that stage where I am not even sure how I feel about it because there are thing I need from a man and I can't just milk his sperm and then throw him in the trash, unless they make it legal.
I've definitely had the last 5 years of my life single, and while I don't mind it and can continue to carry on, I would like to acquire a relationship here in the near future. I'll play my part sure, but I'm also in the mind set that if it happens it happens, if it doesn't.. well that sucks for me lol.
I've broken free of a relationship with a manipulative ex (not that I was amazing either) a few months back and there's another girl I've got eyes on. I've learned some lessons, but I'm not ready for a new relationship just yet. I'm still not over my ex and I've got some mental healing to do.

I'm in a relationship, but I don't like being single.
I’m currently single and it’s not exactly happy being single but it has its perks.
I’m more focused on fixing my inner peace and life than ready to bring some unsolved issues that I may I have left.
I don’t have many but I want to the next girl to be my lastAm happy single, found that the hard way that relationships these way are stressful rather than having a good time with your partner.
Don't get me wrong i do not say all relationships are hard and streesful but being single right now is more peaceful and happy than the previous relations i hadIm happy single, seems like most girls my age have the personality of rat shit, I dont think I've ever seen a genuinely more horrific, disgusting, vain, awful generation throughout history. Yet to meet a girl in person within +/-3 years my age who isn't just genuinely horrific as a human being.
It is OK to be single but it dose get lonely when you see your friends with their love and you are the only one with out some one to love and be loved back. But I rather be single than get hurt again by a guy I think I am in love with. But it would be nice to love and be loved by someone again.
Single but not lonely, but not happy either, a bit unsatisfied with present life but only because of goals and dreams, has nothing to do with being single or being in a relationship... being in a relationship or Being single doesn't make much difference in happiness & life in general I guess, just my view though...
man as woman... Can hv happy life even without a partner, but it s an incomplete happiness... Simply coz each one without the other is incomplete human being!.. So to hv a complete happiness we must find the other half of our humanity... BUT... must know that stay single is better then a partner who turn our life to a nightmare...
at first i didn't mind being single, monthes later tho, i hate it, it ain't even a sex thing, i just hate sleeping alone everynigjt in this big ass bed, hate knowing i could drop off the face of the earth tomaro and no one would care, hate having no one but the internet to talk to, yknow
Single and I don’t want to be. I’d like to know what a real relationship is like but I’m also getting the impression that I just don’t click with anyone on that level, or that I’m too old or whatever. Just a whole bunch wrong that makes it seem like I’ll never experience human intimacy.
People who say they enjoy being single are lying to themselves to make themselves feel better for not being able to be in a relationship. In reality everyone wants a relationship but everyone is so damn entitled and judgmental to actually enjoy their boyfriends or girlfriend. Someone who says they like being single will frown at the sight of a happy relationship
I haven't been in a relationship in awhile and although I was planning on just having fun meaningless flings until I'm ready for a serious one, I'm really desperate for a committed one. Not desperate for a boyfriend, just a committed, relationship worthwhile!!
Atm kinda happy being single because of perks of being single. But I do also get lonely like talking at nights after works, cuddling, spending time during weekends etc. So I miss that very much. Kinda happy but kinda sad I guess. Waiting for that perfect one, not being needy just very curious as per who is she haha
I wish I was in a relationship, but not just with anyone. With the person I know I could grow to love, but can't have for so many reasons.
A bit of both really. Having come out of a long term relationship, I enjoy the single life, however I do miss being with a special someone I guess everything happens for a reason. Right now I'm just going with the flow, what happens, happens.
I don’t wish I’m single because I’m in a relationship now and it feels so good to talk to someone who knows you very well and you can never be too sad because they’re always make you happy and do everything for you
It depends on what your values are
I don't want a relationship. I do, however, want to be in a relationship with a particular girl. I'm perfectly happy being single in most cases, but when I meet someone they make me want one for their sake
I want to be in a relationship now, I wasn't ready to be in one before but I learned that I am able to be alone and gained more confidence. Now I'm looking for someone.
Single. Women cost money. And in the long term cost men too much money in divorces.
If you took the odds of failed marriages, and applied it to something like the odds of a failing parachute, you would never go sky diving.
So why even take a chance in catching feelings with some who is most likely going to take you for everything is what I say.
Sure it does get a little lonesome, but that's what dogs are for!!There are times I wanna be in a relationship and there are other times where I'm happy single hahah, it depends on my mood😭
