Dude, get a girlfriend, get a ******* life!
I know and understand the position you are in at the moment, but trust me you will never feel happier, proud and complete - unless you are in love with someone (and that person reciprocates ;) )

Yes, I believe I have that gift. There is a small percentage that have it. I have been in a few relationships just for the guy's sake. However, from those experiences I realized that I wasn't meant to be in a relationship. I don't have the needs that I find most people seek for. Currently, I am labeled as the wierdo because I don't go out searching for a boyfriend. I rather read a book, do volunteer work or whatever captures my interest throughout the course of the day. I'm single now and I enjoy it. I have peace of mind and I don't have to worry about how the significant other is feeling or having to fulfill their needs. I'm 20 now and I can't see myself getting married or having children. I look at that as a plague. Its something I definately do not want.
Enjoy your singleness and embrace it. To live life without wanting to be with someone is a gift. It means that your meant to spend all your time and energy on something great. Its now up to you to find what that it is.
In response to babyluv...if a person can remain celibate w/o feeling pressured or feeling that they're missing out on life...that's a gift.

Honestly it is really not a gift of singleness, It depends on how you view commitment and if your content with being by yourself. Many people do not want to answer to someone, be with only one person etc. They feel like their freedom is taken away and they want to see what the world has to offer. Some people do get in relationships because they are not secure within themselves and they need that security from someone else. They have no confidence and they want to be loved. But majority of individuals have relationships because it is something that everyone will embark on once in their life. It is nothing like taking "LOVE" to another level and when you are in tuned with another person love has no limits. You enjoy the company and bondage with another person. You can only experience that when you are in a relationship, and many people want that. Many people want to get married etc, so I don't think people only get in relationships for someone to make them happy. I believe that you enjoy your independence and that's fine but there no gift to singleness. It's how you perceive relationships and can you subject yourself to share your life with another person, or would you rather be alone?
In response to Alana, it is not a gift it is a choice. In life you are given options and that's the beauty of life.. I'm not knocking anyone for being single because they are obviously content with being alone but one must ask why?? Well to each it's own..I know a relationship is a beautiful thing and I think everyone should at least experience it. I know I would hate to be 40 without a man or a family and I don't need to seek happiness because I am already happy but you will be surprised when you are already content with yourself and your have a bond with another person. You have the best of both worlds!!!

I'm the same way-
I had a GF for 2.5 years, and I just prefer to be alone. Being with a one girl is boring, and its like taking care of a kid all the time. You have to deal with emotions, stupidity, bitching for no reason, etc.
Being single makes a lot more sense, especially today when you can get some puss on a regular basis without haveing to enter a relationship.

Yes. I, too, am single and appreciate the "gift". Not everyone needs to be married or partnered up to be complete.
Folks can be alone in a crowd.
Anyone can get married/be in a relationship, but key is staying married/in a relationship. It isn't for everyone.

more power to you. i think that there are just some people who are happy with themselves and dont feel the need to have to have someone else in their life in order to be complete. i think that there is nothing wrong with this but i also dont feel that its a gift. i sometimes wish that i had the strength to be single and not feel like something or someone was missing from my life

some people are called to live a vocation to the single life yes, although it is a hard vocation becasue you are called to a life of celibacy, although you are not in an order. However if you feel this is what God is calling you to then best of luck.

I believe that some people aren't meant to have intimate relationships with others.

Singleness isn't a disease. It's not all that common, but we are out there. I enjoy my own company. I'm not into drama -that doesn't mean it avoids me... keep it simple.
