I generally agree but think it's very difficult personally to find someone that, overall, beats being single especially during 20's.

Dealing with drama, moods, nagging, more stress, losing freedom on one hand, but avoiding loneliness and having fun and companionship on the other hand.

I think the latter factors begin to outweigh the former as one gets older into their 30's/40's though. If I felt the same way I did at 25 (never felt lonely, never desired companionship), I'd be perfectly fine living out my life single and free and retiring younger.

Of course those factors all weigh differently for different people, so I don't think we should project too much. But I reckon it's fair to assume loneliness would set in for 99% of people later in life.

If you completely remove the loneliness factor, plus the desire for companionship, is it still so bad staying single? Not really.

I agree with this. My friend who is my age has stayed single for years and I always ask if she's lonely and she says that she isn't. She's always doing stuff and has friends. I'm too introverted to be single.

Yes, it's definitely better to be single than in a bad relationship.

Did you get anxiety? That's the really horrible one.

My son is wore smooth out and is in his bed by 8:00 pm every night. He wears himself out mostly but I do help it along. Since I've started working out at the house I take him outside with when I'm doing my kettlebell complexes and give him one of those plastic baseball bats. He just swings away with that thing trying to copy me and getting down into the push up position and back up again. He's 2 so there is no form, rhyme or reason to any of it but he seems to enjoy it, I get to spend more time with him, it wears him out and gives my wife a chance to get things done inside without him being all up under her so its a win for everyone

Singlecels are on suicide watch

Def a pathetic existence

Imagine Being 50 and spending your Fridayโ€™s Worried about $1 beers at the local pub, banging old loose pussy hags, obsessing over the latest local nfl team trades, crying to sleep over the oneinitis who got away, playing call of duty eating Doritos and hot dogs, having no sense of community, watching your friends and their families enjoy life, never being invited anywhere, working at the local factory listening to classic rock, wearing a bandana and leather jacket

I started getting some bouts of anxiety after my big breakup. I hate to admit it, but getting another gf seemed to help. Of course you can still get it even within a relationship, but the feeling of being alone can be a trigger.

I also think too much freedom can be disconcerting sometimes. When you are alone and completely free to do anything, it can be overwhelming. Whereas the structure and responsibilities of a family life (or even to another person) can set some direction.

I've thought about this a lot. Complete freedom is the best option if you don't desire companionship; but limiting that freedom through responsibility is typically better for the human condition.

I also believe humans are bigger slaves to our genes than we recognize. We desire certain roles innately.

Singlecell checking in.

10 year long term didnt end up in marriage/kids. Now too old to start over. FML.

Good news is I wont live long enough to get dementia anyways, so I got that going for me.

I'm sorry all that happened to you and it sounds like it really messed you up. You'd be much happier if you found an age appropriate partner. Not saying you have date a 50 y/o but you'd likely have more in common with someone within 10 years of you. I can't imagine you have much to talk about with a 23 y/o guy
