I don't give up but I'm trying to be happy and content without one. I'm physically and mentally tired from dating and trying to find someone. Maybe they can look for me!

I am not actively seeking a relationship but am not turned off to the idea of being in one.

That's where I'm at, and I'm all right with it. I just come on here because all the dynamics I read have a "memory lane" quality.

But being single isn't all that bad, really. A lot of relationships turn out to be way much more drama than they are worth.
A healthy outlook. Congrats on the weight loss if it was intentional and helped your confidence.

I found you dont really need anybody to enjoy your life, I still enjoy traveling and going out alone, even dining alone

it's like getting a 50% discount every time I go out to eat since Im only paying for one



being single and free is great
You have an interesting take on things.

I haven't given up on relationships or dating at all, it's just not a priority and I never made it one in the first place. I'm not "single and looking", I'm trying to focus on passing my classes with good grades so I can get out of this place and get my life started. If I find someone that likes me for me and can handle my weird schedule and sleeping habits... I'd be more than happy with that. If not, it's not a big deal and I'll simply keep doing what I do.

I have temporarily put looking for someone on hold. I had a health issue and just had a couple of operations that I need to recover from before I am ready and/or interested in seeking someone new. I do have a couple of FWBs that take care of me in many ways, although they both know friends/FWB is all that is possible, they aren't looking either so it works out...

Oh I did that before. As soon as I did, is as soon as I met someone.
