Without a partner? It depends on the person. Yes it is possible for many people. Some people would have a much harder time with it.

Without all those other things you mentioned in your question? Now that sounds like it would be very challenging to be happy with all those obstacles at once.

Could such a person eventually be happy? Yes definitely. Things can change. And some of those things about friends, good results, etc can change with time as well. Counselors can help with that sort of thing too.

Good luck.

Yes I think so, go for long walks, read (library if you have no cash), get a pet, or volunteer to walk one - they love you whatever - friends are important though, try to make some (best place is work or school) but you have to be a good friend too, remember only the very best, two-way friendships last forever so you need be able to walk away if you get put on. Results are not always reflective, and what you don't achieve now you can go back to and try again later.
Don't expect too much of life - no-one is ever happy all the time - we all like being miserable sometimes.

Answer 4

yes to answer, I'm without a partner i don't have my true friends hear with me yet, and iv worked hard for nothing it would seem, but it only seems like that, i know I'll make a good partner to somebody because i know how to work hard at things if you can work hard then that is a very good quality, true friends are hard to find ask most people and they will say two or three at the most if they are honest, money cant by happiness happiness is found inside find a new way to look at your world and turn the things that don't look to good into things that help

Answer 5

Depends on what you consider happy. To me, the absence of pain, serious illness and hunger are pretty good reasons to feel satisfied that my life is on track, and therefor I feel rather happy. Do I feel giddy and excited, on cloud nine?? Well, NO. But that isn't happiness. Happiness is a state of mind arrived at by accepting that which you cannot change and moving beyond it to those things which you can have an impact on, such as meeting new friends, dating interesting people, learning to be financially astute and understanding that working hard is something you do so that you can look yourself in the eye and know you did your best, not something you do simply to gain a desired material result. In short, people, partners, things...... none of these cause happiness. You CHOOSE happiness within yourself and find joy in experiencing the people and things around you when they are enjoyable. Without the inner peace that allows you to feel content and happy, regardless of your lot in life you can never really know what happy is no matter how many rewards, lovers, friends or millions you have.

Answer 6

I haven't been happy for years because I haven't had a true partner because a true partner is also a friend. Money can't bring you happiness but lack of it can make you miserable. lack of good results is depressing I know after working 18 hr days and still failing. If your young enough try taking a different direction in life maybe something you wouldn't even think about.

Answer 7

You have to break down what makes you happy to know the answer to this. I had two Aunts who never married or had children. They led happy lives and spent time together going on holidays and doing activities that they enjoyed. I would say that it is possible depending on the type of person you are but you have to be very strong and independent to survive like this. Sometimes being alone can be great and other times you will want someone to talk to about your life and problems. You can be single and enjoy it but you need some close family members or friends around you to make it work.

Answer 8

money entertains me, a partner satisfies my certain needs, a true friend is all i have when everything else is in dark, and good results can only be achieved with a supportive family in your back... these are happiness, every kinds of happiness. i may not have them all at the same time once in a while but without these things, without these people, i am merely existing.

so i guess my answer is NO i can't be happy without one or all of these.

Answer 9

One could say I have the qualities of the your question. I have accepted that this life may not be intended for a life partner such as a wife or female companion. Some people are here to do great things. It is my belief that one should find happiness within and not be fixated on externals that may sway us from realizing our purpose. All external happiness is subject to gain and loss. When we dwell in material matters we set ourself up for the cycle of happiness and sadness. Turn your searchlight inward, where true love and happiness resides. Our capacity to love (not romantic love) is also the amount of love we are able to receive

Answer 10

You don't have to have a partner to be happy. Money isn't the answer either. Friends or a friend, seems to be something that would make life more enjoyable.

Working hard doesn't always ensure success, many people who live "small" lives are very happy.

Answer 11

You sound as if the world has turned its back on you! Impossible. A paasing reader would think that everyone is conspiring against you. There may be afew ,ike me , who would tend to think that the one strong person who is against you is YOU.Money, friends , good promotions .. etc. you must have set a very unrealistic , if utopian , for youself. If the demand on the others have been much less and and on you, much more , you would be happy person.

Now , you are looking for shoulders , sympathetic hearing and you want many to accept your one sided view.

Friend, life can never be this bad . For anyone. For you too, OPlease come down to earth. If you are looking for a partner who would sympathise with you for life you are dreaming . take someone as partner , who would encourage you, urge you to , egg you to achieve bigger things in life.
