This is kind of an antithesis to the Do You Crave Love thread.

Its for the people who can be happy without relying on another person. Don't get me wrong, I think its perfectly normal that some people wish to be in relationships (sometimes I think about it myself), but making it the purpose of your life and making your happiness depend whether you are in a relationship or not is just dumb.

There are so many other things that can make you happy, so find those things and enjoy your life without depending on another person. I believe that single life is much more productive.

I agree. I can enjoy life alone very well and almost function better without people around in my life.

I've always admired loners and thought them to be emotionally stronger.

I haven't been able to be in a relatiosnhip more than 5 months

maybe I prefer my single life?

I'm not really single anymore, even though im alone every ****ing day and it makes me depressed.
and yes being single is awful, knowing nobody loves you, hate that feeling.


so im not single and happy person.

even though im a taken and unhappy person since i never see him

I've been single for 1 year and 6 months!! I'm depressed sometimes but I'm fine most of the time

I've been single for almost 2 years, 10 months now.

Andddd I don't give a ****, I'm perfectly happy.

Never had a bf. And I don't need anyone to be happy.

There's only three men that I'ma serve my whole life, it's me myself and I

Gay sex is easy to find but gay love is practically non-existent.

Sis it's not true, many gay guys are such ****s it's true. I assume you are around teenager or college age at most? Thos guys are the ****tiest cause men take a lot more time to mature than women, and often they just came out not too long ago and would rather just experiment and have fun for a few years, but gay love does exist! Don't give up!

Nothing makes you appreciate being single more than getting out of a life-sucking relationship.

I've never thought of having a relationship, because my life has been perfectly fine without it. I don't need it, I have a lot of friends and family and their company is more than enough to make me happy. I also know a lot of people that choose to remain in a ****** relationship which is pretty messed up and unhealthy in my opinion (unless kids are involved in which case it's understandable.)

At some point though, my bestest friends are going to be married and have kids someday and I will end up at the lower end of their priority list so I think that will make me sad, but that's far into the future.

Its a bigger virtue to appreciate something without having the need to try the opposite.

I know that single life is good and I don't need to experience a life-sucking relationship to be convinced about it. But if that has helped you...good for you

It's a lot less hassle and a lot easier to be single, but sometimes feelings get in the way..

Sometimes I wish I was in a relationship but I don't know if I'm ready yet.

Haha, it wasn't really a suggested course of action, more like a retrospective acknowledgment, but okay.
