+1 yYes, It means that they are healthy and truly ready to commit. Someone who is not happy with themselves and single is going to be codependent on their partner to give them a sense of completeness. The partner will have to be responsible for their happiness. I see so many relationships start off this way and insecurity and codependence crashes it just as fast as it began.
True love is true acceptance, Boundaries and empathy foe self & partner. Not only love is based off of different forms of attraction but its also base on timing of when the heart is truly open to revive, teams has been worked on and maturity has grown. Beanie happy ‘cause a stronger sense of self therefore it will help greatly to navigate through a relationship.I find that too many people that are not taking responsibility from themselves and discovering who they are cannot really have that true love until they unlock that. My opinion is based off of relationships myself and all my family members and friends around me.

+1 yNo I know some people that couldn’t bare to be single and ended up in relationships but I think the HEALTHIEST relationships happen when the person is in a happy go lucky mindset about their singleness

+1 yI most certainly do not. If that were the case, then Love would be even rarer than it is. I know for a fact that people can find true love, who were decidedly NOT happy being single. I've seen it happen. More than once.
What it comes down is being willing to wait for someone who truly has the potential to be that true love; rather than finding a boyfriend because you can't stand being single. Be single. Be single until someone you really like comes along. But you don't need to be happy about it. You just can't settle. You have to be willing to be single rather than settle. If you had to be happy about it though... that would be perverse.

Probably. I don't really believe in true love anymore, that's just an opportunity to get abused.
However, I do know that the only place good relationships come from is either adversity that makes people grow closer quickly, or being emotionally available for each other so you have the space to be patient with each other's flaws and get to know each other.
Happy people are the only ones who have the emotional availability for others. Everyone else just gets told to work on themselves until they don't need anyone.

+1 yI don’t think ONLY happily single people find true love. But it does help to be happy being single before looking. From my experience, I dated this girl and I was so happy to have a girl actually like me and find me attractive. That I became dependent on validation from her, BIG MISTAKE. Moral is to not get a boyfriend/girlfriend in hope to fill a void of loneliness. I’m actually somewhat happy single just because I’m doing whatever I want but also I do miss having someone by my side and me by her side just each other afloat
20 ReplyIf your happy single then it often mean you have a healthy mind. Healthy emotions. Emotional mature.
They often take their time and don't desperately rush into a relationship, that means they often can jump out of a relationship if they feel there is a few red flags. That ultimately ends up with them finding people similar to themselves.
And that means yes, they will often find stabil love that will last.00 Reply
+1 yI think you mean can you find love only if you’re perfectly content being single? I’ve heard that before but then there are people who have a deep desire to be with someone and then they’re content once they’ve found the right one. In theory, if you are perfectly happy being single, then you probably won’t be happy being in a committed relationship anyway.

+1 yYou do not need to be happy already to find love. Conversely, people who are subscribing to the fairytale concept of "true love" tend to be unhappy as they have unrealistic expectations that may lead to poor choices.

+1 yI don't think marriage proves love. If it did, you wouldn't see so much divorce but, I do believe love can be found. My parents prove it. The question is, how. How do they stay married, even through all the sh-- they've been through

Anonymous(30-35)+1 yno i don't. i think anyone can find love, regardless if they're happy being single or not... some happily single people just want to stay single, also.
00 ReplyThe problem with trying to find love when you're unhappy alone makes you look needy and despereate. Probably not the right mindset to find the right one

People who aren't emotionally and physically needy do not need relationships or sex.
People really need to stop confusing lonliness with desperation. - +1 y
No it doesn't, having needs doesn't make people settle, it makes them picky,

No, hookup culture is extremely naive to believe in.
It's not a culture, its an std and single parent stupidity epidemic.
