I know you can never say never. I've been single for almost 4 years now and within those for years I am more happy than actually being in relationship.


Okay maybe my reason to not want to be in relationship is because of my past relationship and just my observation everytime I am out and about. I've noticed that people are self-entitled and self centered. ( example: hearing a converstion where a person just talk about themselves , parents not disciplining their misbehaving kids, adults acting like kids, etc)


I just dont think I want any drama and to add more stress in my life . Not be negative nancy, for my opinion is just a lot easier and happier to be single than to be in relationship.

If you truly didn't need a man, I find it highly unlikely that you would have made this post. You sure have been thinking about it. Thinking about it is wanting it and needing it, and posting about it is just proof that you've been thinking about it. So I'm not buying it. Just my opinion.

First of all, what do most people do in here they post. This is a forum after all lol.

Second Theres a lot of stuff that we think about like jumping off the building when we are overstressed, wanting to yell at our ass-o boss. Is this mean that we want and need to do it because we are thinking about it? Most likely the answer will be a No.



I created this post because mainly I realized that I am happier to be single than to be in relationship. Yes I could say at this moment and possibly in the future I dont need or want a man.

Beside being in relationship shouldn't complete you. It should just be a nice addition.

So why post in a relationship forum when you don’t want a relationship?

I wish is all about me. I've dedicated most of my time and money in helping dump domestic animals.

lt is disheartening for sure when you look around sometimes, especially when you've had a bad run yourself.
Very rare l see a married guy l envy although plenty envied me when l was married but here we are, that didn't work out anyway.
l've thought a lot about it all too since l was married especially as we get older people come with sooooo much stuff, most don't even realize how much stuff they come with. Or if it's not that it could be just differences between you or allowances you need to make or in just accommodating for the other one in some ways or others.People change too so what you start out with and love, might not be what you have in her 5 or 10, 20yrs later, it stops working or out of love.

lt's def' easier alone not one doubt about that, you can do live and set your life up anyway you please these days, no need for any of the above or bs.
lt sounds like if you were to find something that was right and worthwhile-then maybe,, but as it's been for you the way it has and given the way life is without anyway, then to hell with it.
Well , that's fair enough and more and more common these days.

Exactly. Is nice to have someone and obviously i envy those who stays together for better or worse but are they truly happy? Then again everyone is different.
