We make it sound like being alone is the most horribel thing in the world. "I don't wanna die alone" a lot of people tend to say. Are relationships that much of an issue? I mean look around. Everyones gettin divorced, due to that, everyones just living together to make sure they have an easy escape plan. "Keep one foot out the door just in case." With all of this, surely relationships can't be that big of deal? Is being completely alone and happy really that impossible or unatural? I think about this a lot and don't see what's so wrong or unatural about it. Marriage has lost its appeal to me (hate to say that) and just living with someone I'm gonna be honest. Has no appeal what so ever. Just "shakin-up."
Is being alone really that big of deal. Is there really someone out there for everyone. . .? Honestly?

Well I cant say that I enjoy being alone... it sucks.. but I'm not going to settle just so I have someone.. I got engaged at the end of February... to the man of my dreams.. and needless to say he passed away unexpectedly on March 20th.. talk about my life coming to a quick halt....since then I have learned alot about myself.. I miss him so much.. and think of him all the time... all I have are good memories.. so I hold on to those.. and take it day to day... knowing that Gary would have wanted me to go on.. it's hard.. but.. I'm doing it... there are days I feel like throwing in the towel.. so to speak.. but.. like I said.. I have learned so much about myself..
So my advice to you is to use the time you have to the best of your ability and find out who you are.. and find out what it is your looking for in life..
Good luck on your so called search for happiness...

There is nothing wrong with being alone and I completely agree with you about the marriage thing.
What does marriage mean anymore? I mean really, it doesnt mean anything. These vows that we say to eachother when we get married have been bashed and beaten by so many married couples. A long time ago, marriage was the biggest day in people's lives. Now, when i see two people get married, I wonder to myself, "How long is that gonna last?".
I see nothing wrong with being alone and single anymore. It's actually refreshing to see somone want to be like that anymore. It just seems like everyone HAS to be with someone now, and if they are not with someone, they act as though they are helpless. People seem so immature and scared anymore.
I was single for a very long time before I actually started a long term relationship with someone. I learned how to deal with being alone and I got used to it. I have alot of fun being by myself. When you are actually with someone, your freedome is slowly stripped from you. It is not so ideal as many people think it is. It just causes so many fights. Life is too short for fighting and arguing!

Maybe there is someone out there for everyone, but if you keep jumping from meaningless relationship to meaningless relationship how are you ever supposed to find that person? I've been divorced for 3 years and have had NO serious relationships since then... I'm perfectly content with being by myself. I have my friends, my beautiful children and my family... People are raised seeing co-dependance. I have learned the past 3 years to be ok with myself, to love myself and realize that I can be happy myself, no one else needed to "fulfill" my life. I'm doing a hell of a job on my own... best of luck to you :)

Hmmm, I might say Hitler's worse,... Atleast Mohammed's legacy doesn't come in an all pervasive united "KILL ALL TEH INFIDELS!" theme (as in there are other views and opinions within the so called legacy). Mohammed's no worse then his, say,... Fertile Crescent prophetical colleagues,... such as Moses and Jesus in legacy, good men with alien (okay, unique is also good, but I don't think this word convey my actual meaning) ideology in perspective of the modern world. While Hitler... I think his legacy is based on perverted obsessions and revenge ideas. Too much bad blood to go around in good intentioned legacies,... why add another one from a really morally questionable legacy?

Humans by nature are a socially oriented species that do best in a community environment. There is a difference of course between being alone and being isolated. Everyone needs their own space and quiet time to maintain their sanity. The level of personal contact we need varies depending on our upbringing and also changes with time. Nothing good comes from cutting yourself off completely from the world around you however.

There is nothing wrong with living alone. It is far better than living with someone you are not compatable with and lots of time this is not realized until after the marriage. Or they walk out after the children are born--leaving bills, problems, children, and so many things for you to deal with.

If a person likes there own company 24/7 and doesn't want to share any of it with anyone else, then it's a good thing for him.
I'm sure you can go through life with blinders on and never know if there is that special someone for you. Now I will shut my mouth because that's all you asked for.
God bless.

I was divorced for nine years and loved every minute of it. I have remarried, but I could sure live alone again and be happy as ever. There is nothing wrong with being alone. At least there is no one to clean up after or report to or cook for. It's got its advantages.

I agree with you. I don't see what's wrong with being alone. As long as your happy then I don't see what the problem is. Another thing all my friends and family that are in relationships always seem to have problems with their mate. Sometimes it makes me not want to be in a relationship just thinking about it.
