How many of you want a relationship and how many prefer to stay single?

Question

Peter_Penetrator · Accepted Answer

Relationships would be more likely to last if both parties communicated better, were more honest with each other, set boundaries and respected the other person’s boundaries. Get out of a relationship sooner once those red flags go up rather than trying to work it out. Yes, there are relationship issues that will need to be worked out, but red flags are a strain on the victim’s mental health. Don’t date someone because you just want sex from them or date someone just because you don’t want to be alone.
———————————————————————Depending on what state you live in there is a waiting period between the time a person files for divorce and when the divorce is finalized.

We need a similar law where there would be an 18 month waiting period between the time a marriage license is bought and the wedding day. Some people are too quick to marry. If the state you reside in requires a “think it over” period before a divorce is finalized, there needs to also be a “get to know them better” period.

I neither one or relationship nor want to be single I simply want to be, and should a relationship come may it come in peace.

Sometimes I think we get a little too, hung up on whether relationships or being single really matters or not. For me and the grand scheme it’s about finding what makes us happy as people and ultimately trying our best to live life. Even the relationship is too completely separate lives needing to be lived simply coming together. It doesn’t mean the importance of the separate things are any less.

So for my money neither Just happiness.

Depends on what the exact situation is.

If it's simply not wanting to be alone, no. I tell trash, morons, etc., to go to hell. I'd rather be by myself.

I don't settle with shit like that.
PLENTY OF TIMES I've been in that situation, surrounded by people that are supposed to love you, cherish you, appreciate you, by title or circumstance or choice, but I know what it's like to be completely alone. I've been around too many 2 faced people. So I don't bother. I stay away, save time, and do what's best for me.

At the moment I kind of like not having to deal with men on a sexual level. My heart is a mess right now and I don't really know what my next move will be.. I sort of want to end myself so there really is no need to look for love when I have that mindset hahaha.

As a relationship coach aiming to share some sparks and insights, I can tell you different preferences suit different folks, and it's all perfectly valid! Some desire that heart-fluttering, lovebombing romance, while others cherish the independence of singledom. Personally, the beauty of a relationship lies in shared experiences and growth, but hey, a little me-time never hurt anyone! 😉 It's all about what makes your heart race, whether it's love or freedom. What's your vibe?

HawkPerception · Answer

Being in a relationship has always been better than not being in one for me. You have someone to share experiences with, listen to and support you just as you listen to and support them, and life is just less dull overall.

I will never understand people that say they don't want a relationship because they're afraid of getting hurt. Even if you are hurt, it's better to love and lose than never love at all.

AviatorTom · Answer

Why are these mutually exclusive? Marriage isn't for everyone. Is it not possible to have a meaningful relationship and stay single?

jewel · Answer

Best option for me: stay single

JustMeQ2 · Answer

Staying single is something I will never understand, like a lot in the replies here.
What’s the allure of it I’m unable to prove.

If options and variety are so good, I’m gonna test it with random flings and escorts.
To convince myself that this is the way.
The test was fun, I had all the variations and emotional roller coasters. For a short while, the fun was like a drug. I didn’t leave a kink unexplored, and quality compromised.

Only to find that “ if you can buy it with money, it’s not worth it”.

Freedom…There is no sacrificing freedom in a right relationship.

Don’t lose sight of what’s important, and that what’s important is not attainable with money.

Cheers 🍷

Lliam · Answer

I got into my first relationship when I was 16.
I always liked girls/women and sex and preferred being in long-term, infatuated, monogamous relationships as opposed to hookups. I like having a female partner.

I finally got married. My wife and I have been happily married for 28 years, had LOTS of fun, and have built a wonderful life together. We love each other. I would be lonely and miserable without her.

ManInChains · Answer

I prefer to stay single. I’m too broken and damaged by women to have a healthy relationship with one anyway. Besides, my resentment for women is through the roof. Toxic femininity is everywhere and it is even encouraged! I’m far happier focusing on writing my urban fantasy book series. I don’t need any distractions. I receive enough platonic love from my family. I don’t need any other type of love in my life. It will only lead to more resentment I don’t need.

noohair · Answer

Men decide if the 80% good in a relationship is worth the 20% bad and take the 80% and deal with the 20%. Women take the 80% and go to work on the 20%. At this point in my life, and having been married for 26 years, I am now divorced. I do not think that I want the 20% in my life. Not even 5% or 1%.

I'd only want a relationship with a good quality woman, but since those are nearly non-existent in the USA, I would rather stay single than deal with all the stress and nonsense of being with the ones that actually exist.

Shamalien · Answer

I’d love a relationship, but it has to be with the right person, and I’ve dated enough to know that most people are just not for me, at least not in my city. I’ve dated around, but nobody I could see a future with, other than one…but her parents are kind of crazy so I don't know
