Is it normal that i've been this way?

I'm 28 y o man soon to be 29. I'm in the medical field and doing quite good. But my relationships have always been rocky n emotionally traumatic.
So I've given up on relationships altogether. I've been single for 3 years and have a fuck buddy who's older than me.
At first I thot I'll eventually find some good girl who's more in tune with me but since a year I've stopped hoping n given up.
I'm good looking, stay fit n am very healthy but I don't make any friends either. I feel very good without any relationships n am very happy but I'm afraid as I got older I may regret it. is it normal to fear this?

    No matter which choices you make in life, you will always wonder if the other choice was better. Whatever you choose not to do, you need to let it go and accept your choices for what they are. Don't get hung up on them.
    If your life feels worse around certain people rather than better, you're making the right choice by not being around them.
    If you need someone in your life, they will show up and you'll know you need them.
    We walk in and out of one another's lives on a daily basis. There's nothing to fear from that, no matter fleeting the exchange.

    • This is comforting to know.. But we know of people who wished they weren't so closed off to 'opportunities' and keep regretting abt 'the one that got away' so...

    Just keep your fuck buddy seriously the majority of people out there are a bunch of retarded psychopaths.

    • That's not an option actually due to some circumstances and I'm not attracted to her personality at all

    The illiteracy of your post makes it very hard to believe you are doing as well (not good) as you say, in any medical field capacity, except possibly as a janitor.

    • Did you even for a second think that may be English isn't my first language, or second language! Well I guess you've made up your mind. :)

    whether or not you'll regret depends on how well you know your self/priorities.

    are you working in or still studying medicine? it's difficult to have a demanding career and have a rship that isnt so much drama that it cripples everything else in your life. so I can understand being content with a fwb but why give up on rships? why not make it a kind of passive process, where you're not desperate to get into a relationship but you still keep meeting new people. I'm not saying string along a bunch of women but get to know anyone that intrigues you. soon enough you'll come across someone who you'll know you want to go the distance with

    • That's exactly what I thought a year ago but gradually I realised relationships are too much work n mentally draining! I'll going for a fellowship next month n It's easy for me to keep everything on a back burner for a career but on odd days I fear I might regret it later..
