Disillusioned Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Is my lack of a family a turn-off to women? I've been living alone for 3 years this month... my late mother was someone who didn't think big, and like all parents, she was illogical... but most of the time I got along with her, taking care of her when she was dying of cancer. I know plenty of people who say they'd LOVE to live alone in their own house... apparently their idea of Heaven-on-Earth is to be able to crank the stereo as loud as they want and get drunk and puke on the floor whenever they feel like it. These people are mental teenagers. What happens if I have a heart attack and die in my house? What will happen to my dog? Will people on the web cheer because it will mean one less lonely man? Sometimes I wonder if a lifetime of solitude is worth it. Good thing I'm openly asexual, else I'd be drilling holes in the trees out in the back yard and screwing them.

brainygirl Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Erm, gonna leave the whole "asexual" think alone. I don't think its a turn off, but then my mother passed nine years ago and my dad remarried and moved across the country, so its not like I have close family ties either. I have had people ask about local family, but I always figured it was because I live in such a rural, small-town area that its unusual for people to be disconnected like that.

Jane Doe Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Personally, a lack of family wouldn't bother me at all. That way there would be no in-laws to argue with and the Christmas list would remain short. You don't have to have a lifetime of solitude. Even if you're not in a romantic relationship, there are billions of people in the world. Have you thought of taking a class, joining the Jaycees, Ruritans, Lions, etc.? There are lots of lonely people just like you. Go out there and meet them! Link to post Share on other sites

vampirkat Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I'm glad to get away from my family, they're a bunch of religious idiots that are small minded and won't respect my decision to exercise my american right of freedom of religion, those idiots (i choose to be deist). i'll be sooooo glad to live on my own so i *can* crank the stereo as loud as i want. you just got to make some friends that will check up on you once in awhile so in case you do fall out dead with the stereo blaring, someone will eventually come by to see what's up since you haven't answered your phone. ^_~ Link to post Share on other sites
