learning_slowly Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Yep. That's exactly where I am at - and I keep going back and forth, not happy with either decision. Also, is the one of the 3 things that is lacking, teachable or do you have the ability to learn that connection? Link to post Share on other sites
hotpotato Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Happy being single for a period of time? Plenty of people. Happy being single all their lives? Much rarer, I would imagine. Personally, I could be the former, probably not the latter. My LTR isn't the entirety of my world, but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a big part of my happiness. There's just something about having someone with whom you connect mentally, emotionally, and sexually - and knowing they feel the same way about you. But that's just me. I'm sure there are people who really don't care about having that. Also, despite the importance of a R to me, I'd still rather be single than in a bad relationship. I've left relationships for that reason, and never regretted it. As I get older, I care less about the connection. It seems better to put my energies into things that respond well to hard work. If anything I'd like to have a little romance in my life, maybe, but the connection isn't necessary. Link to post Share on other sites
