So my New Year's Resolution was to stay single for 2019 because I really just want to focus on myself and to some people that is not normal. With today's society I feel like so much pressure is put on people to be in relationships. Does anyone else want to join me on my resolution? Or am I completely weird for wanting to be single?
Relationships are a lot of hassle. Some people just don't think the hassle is even worth it. So yeah, I would say it's normal to want to stay single
Yes, healthy & smart even. Focusing on yourself, your happiness, and being able to be your own companion will lead to much healthier relationships for many reasons.
Unfortunately, i can not dump my fiance & join you. I have this really itchy spot on my back that's hard to reach...otherwise i'd totally get rid of his ass.
Good for you! I guess my question to you would be what do you want in your life. I haven't always made the best decisions as far as partners are concerned, and honestly I think I'm better off single, at least after the last mistake. Honestly though, even if I wanted to find someone now that I'm almost fifty years old it's slim pickings. I don't think people should define themselves, or each other by their relationship statuses.
I like not having to compromise, or put up with another person's bullshit.
I this todays society focuses less on relationships. Yes its normal tho.
If it's not normal than I'm not normal either. After 3 failed relationships I am done with the boyfriend girlfiend crap. I dicided I don't need none of the mushy mushy crap. I concider myself a free soul that needs to be free, Don't need chains or a cage aka a girlfriend and a relationship.
Completely normal! I have been single by choice for a couple of years now. I think it's a wonderful opportunity to focus on self improvement and finding out what it is you really want in life, and also to enjoy whatever you want, whenever you want for the most part without having to worry about compromising to make your partner happy. The freedom is so liberating to me.
I also think it's very healthy to be able to be happy while being single. I feel that so many people try to force and rush into relationships just for the sake of not being alone, even if it is clearly not working out. For me, I'm waiting until the right person comes along and the time feels right. There's no rush!
I would rather be by myself because you think know people it's usually people whom you are close to that usually try to harm you, I trust dogs more than people.
Maybe your friends want to be more than friends? I'm not sure why else they would care?
Then they shouldn't care. If they're worried about you it's because they're insecure and could never imagine being happy alone for a while. That's their own problem, don't let them push their shit onto you. You go and be single for a year, or maybe even longer, and have a kick ass time doing your own thing!
It's actually normal to want to stay single.
I remember when I was single and a lot of people wanted to date me. I enjoyed this attention. I also enjoyed focusing on graduating high school and having 8 people wanting me. It kept me on my toes in a positive way.
However now, I don't think I want to go through that experience as I'm engaged to an amazing guy.
Enjoy your singlehood though cause maybe one day, you might find your person
There are lots of people that just want to be single. I kinda do so I can focus on my you tubing career
Hmph, stupid bizsnatch. You're kidding yourself if you think it's YOUR choice. No one wants to be near your stupid ass. Why? Cuz it smelz like shit. hehehehahhaha
Who is pressuring you?
Outside of parents who want grandchildren or odd family members, why would anyone have an interest in whether someone is single or in a relationship?
Most of my friends that have significant others pressure me into finding "the one" because they might get away if I wait too long, but I can hardly believe that
Well it's normal to want to be single. Tell your friends that you're not interested in anything right now. If they are real friends they will drop it.
The concept of "the one" is nothing but modern superstition. Funny how people hold onto stupid notions like that.
A person could have any number of compatible partners in their country, or around the world. Or, they could have none at all.
Not everyone is meant for those kind relationships, contrary to dogma. Not everyone has the maturity, the willingness to compromise, or the desire.
