I'm afraid of dying alone.

I'm afraid of being in a relationship. I just want to be left alone honestly.

Nah, I'm good either way. I actually kinda like not being tied down...

I'm afraid of being alone forever i don't mind being alone right now but as I get older i am scared though

I'm always afraid of being lonely, that's because I was subtly put out my group of 'friends'.

No

Yes
I'm depressed and have suicidal thoughts

Not at all, i've never been in a relationship and i'm fine

No, my family is enough and I don't need somebody else to be the reason I'm happy.

Yes, I've battled with depression for a while and honestly I just want someone to connect with.

I like the idea of having someone to spend time/sleeping beside etc with but at the same time I like nights where I don't have to 'entertain someone'' (I mean doing movies and dinners etc) when you're in the early stages of a relationship.

Tbh...I've always prided myself on being independent and self-sufficient, but lately I've been feeling particularly lonely. My thoughts aren't enough to keep me company, and I just want a special someone to share my life with and to cuddle with at night! Even so, I do value my alone time and need it often...

I am alone. You get used to it. Although i will admit, I get overwhelming urges to be with someone but at the same time I just can't see myself in a relationship.
