being in a relationship makes me happiER for sure... absolutely yes
but that means I am happi-ER... and it does not mean that I feel any kind of miserable being single, I am still happy and more than pleased while single... but with a partner, is just a different level and very much happier, well, at least that has been my experience
Although I've already explained my past relationships, somewhat surprisingly I have noticed that times I was killing it in life, I was with someone. At the time I believed we were working towards a common goal, to our collective benefit, but really they hated me and didn't give a shit about any of that stuff. So you know,... kinda bitter.
The question is overly simple. A QUALITY partner MAY provide happiness and fulfillment, but never to someone who hasn’t discovered happiness and fulfillment within themselves. Furthermore, a poorly chosen partner or even a well chosen partner at the wrong phase of one’s life will bring only heartache, during and after the relationship. Any examination of this issue that fails to acknowledge the nuances of compatibility will ultimately result in failure.
Well I had a partner for a year and 9 months and it was the most horrific year and 9 months of my life oh god she was awful, so I'd say that I'd rather be alone than be with anyone.
At least I can do what I want when I want and I haven't got to worry about being stabbed (yes she did try to stab me) or yelled at or belittled. So I'm fine being alone.
Companionship is always a good thing. Life is meant to be a shared experience. But is it necessary? No. I've made a life of being pretty single. And i think i'm quite happy. You're born alone and you die alone. And most people in relationships are alone anyways an just don't know, or want to accept it anyways lol. I guess all I'm trying to say is at the end of the day it's just you. I don't care how close your relationship is.
I've been single for over 2 years, and I never do hookups. I've never been in a relationship I saw going the distance, so they're always just disappointing, and I can't help but think about the inevitable breakup. Being single can be lonely some days, but really it has helped me to focus on what I like doing and where I wanna be in the future
Dude, need to find a good woman I know it's hard but they're out there. I am a hard discharged United States Marine and I've seen many relations go far as a man who says hell no I'm not dealing with that love can change your mind. I hate to say this but it's better to find someone that loves you more than you love them. You will get there but in your travels always put them first and they will always love you more than you love them at first. Because of what is happening between you you will love them more than you know because of what they are given to you. I loved being single I cannot believe I'm at my wife and I like being married I never thought I was that guy. GOOD LUCK TO YOU MAN!
Much appreciated, man! And thanks for the advice! I hope I get there some day, but right now I see myself being a bachelor for quite a while based on my plans for the next few years. But life is crazy and you never know what to expect, so maybe I'll meet someone who changes every plan I've made. Glad it worked out for you and you're happy!
Relationships are beneficial in a lot of ways when you find the right person, but still optional, you don't need it to feel fulfilled and shouldn't be your only goal; but the hardest part of being alone is finding peace within yourself.
If you are unhappy without a partner then you shouldn't be getting into a relationship. Relying on other people to make you happy is unhealthy and a recipe for disaster
There are good and bad on both some people can't function without having someone others are happier alone it depends on each individual I can only answer for myself I would be the one that can handle being alone and not feel lonely I have lots of things I can be doing
With the right partner I think so. I haven't ever been fortunate to have one. But the only times I don't feel lonely is when I'm with good friends. Alternatively when talking to someone on a dating site when it seemed there was a chance of anything happening if that makes sense not sure it does.
Not actively participating in pursuit of a pairing, leaves me feeling like I'm only an observer / tourist in life. "Yah gotta be 'in it' to 'win' it..." Its an inherited evolutionary motivation. ~
@Djaay D/s refers to dominant/submissive relationship in BDSM. Some people in D/s are swingers, but that's not an essential part of this dynamic. You can be monogamous.
Depends on the partner but generally having company is a good thing to have in life especially with a sexual partner. The thing you dont want is to be entirely dependent on someone else for you being happy.
In my experience, having a partner has only brought me expenses, stress, arguments, and wasted my time. It has never brought me happiness or feeling fulfilled in life.
does living with someone that has the ability to Make me Stressed out and worried make me happier? I would say no I’m not psychotic like that. and Prefer Living alone where I’m the only one I have to Worry about.

depends who your partner is i chose him but my husband sucks!!
Why does he suck
Both though a partner can bring you the opposite, misery and a feeling of not belonging anywhere.
I do love being in a relationship, I suffer from loneliness easily and having someone to come home to, that is what life is about for me.

@Smashingdoozy yes very much this.

Having my current, yeah.
Honestly, I need a D/s to be happy.
Plural means possible cheating might be prevalent
@Djaay plural?
D/s... PLURAL *
@Mia-Wallace, I don’t think he understands the term. I think he thought you meant dick/s rather than Dom/sub dynamic.
@dynamicyandere Yes I think.
@Djaay D/s refers to dominant/submissive relationship in BDSM. Some people in D/s are swingers, but that's not an essential part of this dynamic. You can be monogamous.
Oh... sorry !
Depends on the partner but generally having company is a good thing to have in life especially with a sexual partner. The thing you dont want is to be entirely dependent on someone else for you being happy.
I think you need to be able to be happy alone in order to make someone happy in a relationship.
With the right partner even good things can be improved.
I was happy before, but yes I am even happier now. That only works if you pick the right person though.
In my experience, having a partner has only brought me expenses, stress, arguments, and wasted my time. It has never brought me happiness or feeling fulfilled in life.
does living with someone that has the ability to Make me Stressed out and worried make me happier?
I would say no I’m not psychotic like that. and Prefer Living alone where I’m the only one I have to Worry about.
I often feel trapped. But that just lets me know they aren't the one for me
