Have you ever thought that you would be alone for the whole life?

I do sometimes. I've always had a hard time connecting with people, and finding someone that likes me enough to be in a relationship with me just doesn't seem likely.

Same^

 

All the time

 

Every day haha

 

I worried about that when I was in my late teens. I was scared to be alone and never find anyone, so I got into two relationships back to back that lasted a total of 5ish, closer to 6 years. I wasn't happy. If you're worried about being alone, just realize that being alone and happy with yourself is better than being with someone you're not happy with just to avoid loneliness. But for me, no, once I gained some confidence I never really worried that I wouldn't be able to find someone. I think I'm pretty laid back and likable.

 

Similar to Kodo and a few others, I don't buy into that whole 'there is someone for everyone' stuff; a bunch of cliché nonsense if you ask me.

I don't think I'm relationship material anyways and, considering I'm nearly 24 and haven't ever even gone on a date before(and I don't really care at this point), it's only proving itself to be truer and truer over time in my book.

Not to mention that any of that rare few who's ever probably even considered some type of interest in me likely think I'm an awkward ass weirdo upon first encounter... :lol:



P.S. If you are amused by awkward looks when single, attend a Valentine's Day brunch by yourself. It works!

 

Well I mean I believe there is some for everyone, I just feel that there is so much bullshit and people in the world that we often miss them completely. Then we become so afraid that we'll end up alone that we settle for someone.

And I rather be alone than settle

 

I think that everyday, I don't just mean relationship/dating wise, I also mean friendship wise. I have misophonia which causes me to have fight or flight responses from certain noises. It can actually get pretty severe sometimes. Then there's social anxiety, pretty much just anxiety in general actually. Then when you mix in an uncertainty about my sexuality you get someone who finds it very difficult to make/keep friends let alone date someone.

 

I do because I'm a loner. It doesn't sit well but it's the sad truth. Far as romantically it's hard to trust these days.

 

I suspect I will, but I don't really care. I'm generally happier though by myself without the burdens of the constant demands of a partner.

Happy days

 

Yeah I have actually thought about it a lot.

I suppose it doesn't help that I live in a small town with few gay people around and when all my friends are in relationships and I'm a constant 3rd wheel.

The fact that i sometimes feel there's a small chance I'll actually meet someone I connect with, am attracted to and who is gay/attracted to me makes it difficult to be optimistic...especially when theres no examples of happy lesbian couples on TV coz they all end up dead #the100

 

Do you watch GLEE? Brittany and Santana are in a happy relationship, a few ups and downs, but that's part of any relationship, and it ends well. (but I'll stop there in case of spoiler).


And yes, sometimes I think I will be alone, but I think being alone has its benefits.

 

You know what, I do sometimes worry about being alone, but I feel that might be me, cause I'm very weird to all people.

 

The answer depends on who you are.

For me, the answer is yes. Being alone is almost too easy for transgender individuals, but I am also not straight. To make things worse, my being of an ethnic minority doesn't help.

There are some advantages of being single, for sure, and I am prepared to be optimistic and accept those advantages for a long period of time.
:icon_wink

 

Yes, definitely, after waiting for so long to have a relationship with a woman. And being so selective.

 

While I did talk to my therapist and notice I think about a lot of bad things but I haven't ever thought I would be alone forever.

I just think this:
'I hope I am able to find the perfect guy.'

And hopefully I do when I grow up.

 

I actually feel like this right now :lol:

 

Almost 31, never been in a relationship, and rarely feel that connection with another person. It's most definitely crossed my mind. lol My friends are much more attractive and interesting, and even they're having a difficult time. I probably don't stand a chance. XD

 

Yes. Many times. I even thought I'd stay celibate forever sometimes too. It's hard, but the thought does flash by more often than it should IMO.
