I asked myself that same question and decided that maybe the answer is that I really don't want to deal with a man right now so I decided to back off that.
Just got back from my road trip to Dallas. I was at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center & I saw a couple kissing & being all lovey-dovey and it warmed my insides....I want that so much.
Another thing I noticed them doing that I never thought of before: they had their hands in each others pockets! I've never done that with a girl before! I'd love to do it one of these days. Funny how I forgot that Homer & Marge Simpson did it on an episode of the Simpsons.....now that's a real couple. Homer & Marge....how many trials and travails have they triumphed through? So many. Real loving couple.
So sad they're fictional. Still, a couple to look up to.
Because I am sick of answering the question "Why are you still single?"....
And also because it would be nice to have someone around that I genuinely wanted to be with again. I haven't had a serious relationship in years, mainly because I have been moving around and spent the last year abroad. But I have grown tired of constantly going to bars and ending up with hook-ups and nothing more. I want a relationship if for no other reason than I think it would be good for me.
Just thought of another reason I want a girlfriend. I've been trolling UrbanSpoon for a good chunk of the night checking out local restaurants old & new. I would love to go to these restaurants with a foodie girlfriend! That would be amazing & make the experience so much more memorable and worthwhile. We'd enjoy the experience together. And then work the calories off in bed later on that night!
I keep wondering, why do I want a girlfriend so badly? Aside from the fact that I've never had one & I'm curious about what it's like.....I think it just seems nice & it's an idea that really appeals to me. A girl that likes me and enjoys spending time with me? Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside just thinking of that.
Sexually, it's almost tangential: I can get sex other ways via drunken hookups, CraigsList trannies & worse comes to worse, prostitutes. But a RELATIONSHIP? That's something you have to earn. Someone who likes you and whom you like in return? Not common at all.
It pains me when others seemingly get what I want so easily and then throw it away by cheating and being "less than there"; but things happen for a reason, I guess. Maybe I'll get a chance someday.
Why do you want a significant other? Or NOT want one, if that is the case?
They throw away what you want because, just as there is alone suffering, there is couple suffering. You're just exchanging one form of suffering for another.
However, in almost all instances, you don't need someone to find peace and happiness. But unhappiness always requires teamwork.
