If you realized that it was impossible for you to be in a relationship, what would you do? Would you just accept it or would you do something?

At the age of 31, I've never been in a relationship and I realized that I'll never be in one.

I'm NOT looking for sex, I'm NOT looking for hookups. I just want to love and be loved. However, I realized that will NEVER happen. Yes, you can say "you should go out more" or "you're not looking, so how are you going to find love?" but for me it's not that easy. It's much deeper and complicated than that.

So if you have ever been in a situation like that how did you deal with it?

I just live my life for myself and remind myself that I’m happier without than with. I will never experience heartache. I will never have to feel jealous, and I am an extremely jealous individual.

I wish I was like you...

Just have to consider the positives of being single as opposed to the negatives. Yes, there are actually positives to being single

[Asker]

Yes there are. I'm just tired of being one but I can't do anything about it.

[CriticalCatDad123]

You’re problem is you’re stuck on the negative. You’re doing it to yourself 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Asker]

I'm not focused on the negative, I am a negative. But that's another story...

But thank you for your words. I appreciate them. You're a wise man.

"Never forget that you are absolutely unique. . . just like everyone else!"

[Asker]

Thank you, those are kind words. I appreciate them. :)

Not my case yet, but honestly, I think I'd just lead my life as it usually is. Help with family, hangout with friends, do hobbies, etc. My life would be the same as it is right now currently.

I’m the same age and I’m in the same boat as you. For me, I just accepted it and move on about my life.

[Asker]

I should be able to do that, but I'm not. I admire you for being able to do that.

I would create a life full of activities I could do by myself. Marathon running, video games, travel, gourmet cooking and other stuff.

Just enjoy doing your own thing.
