Posted 2 months ago Why does our main focus always end up with needing and wanting to be in a relationship? We get a divorce and look for another one to marry. I have been marriage free my whole life of 40 years. No divorce, no kids. I truely have no problems! I laugh my way home thinking, I am going home to my house and no one is going to put a damper on the end of my day. I get off the hook so easy! And I love being single. I know my friends and family love me, I can visit or invite them over almost anytime. Just listen up to what others are saying who are either married or dating. Mostly they complain they are dealing with a struggle with the other person. Now, I know there are an elite few lucky ones who are truely happy and blessed and in a very healthy relationship or marriage. These people are right . But others who try to force cohesiveness with another complicated individual...eyyiieeyyeiii ...give it a rest already. Read a book on relationships to experience more success or accept the fact that its ok to be single! |

| Posted 2 months ago I think it's more because everything in our society is relationship oriented. Better tax breaks for married folks. . . if you eat this Acacia and clean out your colon and eat these other disgusting berries you'll lose weight and attract a mate. . .if you do this and do that etc etc etc- it's all focused on relationships or getting one. Outside of that, there are three things that are inexcapable to all due to our primitivve evolutionary drive. . .sex, fear, shelter
I think ultimately most people are terrified of being alone and not everyone has your courage (nor mine) to go at it alone.
Walk in Peace |

| Posted about 1 month ago Why does our main focus always end up with needing and wanting to be in a relationship? I don't feel that I NEED to be in a relationship, but I WANT to be in one. I am a single girl in my early 30's. My last serious relationship was 5-6 years ago. Most of the time I am glad I am single, but more and more I wish I were not. I will not be dependent on someone, but I do want the companionship of another. As great as your friends may be, they have their own lives, their own schedules, their own things that keep them busy. A close friendship will never be as connected to you as a partner would be. |
