A few questions

 

How many of you have been convinced (in the past) that you are going to spend the rest of your life/die alone? How did you get over this?

 

How many of you are currently convinced you are going to spend the rest of your life/die alone? Why?

 

How many of you actually have spent almost all of their lives alone and expect to die alone?

I myself have none of those fears..I'm fine by myself and have no desire to NEED someone to complete me. I know that I'll meet someone that I WANT to be with but, not out of needing them.

Before my recent ex, I was alone for quite a long time and I know I don't NEED someone to live my life. I am also sure I will find someone to share my life with, eventually. There's no need to rush it.

How many of you have been convinced (in the past) that you are going to spend the rest of your life/die alone? How did you get over this? - I felt like this after the ex ex. Now i feel like this now to with the current ex. If I was to be honest with you, that is something we will never know until it happens.

 

How many of you are currently convinced you are going to spend the rest of your life/die alone? Why? - wont spend it alone, as there is always someone for everyone, but will it be the same bond as before? no....it may be better than that bond :)

 

How many of you actually have spent almost all of their lives alone and expect to die alone? ---dont be so pesimistic. If that is happening its done by choice :p

This is how I always feel when I am single.. I know its irrational but it seems to always crop up. Statistically i know that it doesn't make sense to think that I will be alone forever, and Im sure I wont - im only 27. But every now and then I do let it get me down.

 

Why is it that alot of people seem to go from relationship to relationship and never be single for more than a month or two, whereas I seem to stay single for up to a year at a time and dont seem to meet many people despite going out all the time and having a really good social life. Im starting to think that its simply a confidence thing. Some guys just go for what they want whilst others sit back and wait for things to happen.

I feel like that right now...but I know it is because I am just recently single. It is a crappy and scary feeling, but I want to want to be with the person that I am with. I would rather be alone than wish I was alone.

1. Never felt that way in the past.

 

2. I am convinced of this now. Partly because I found the love of my life but he didn't want me, and partly because I'm 38 and the guys I meet are all taken or gay. Plus, I am not physically attractive, so that narrows my chances a lot. I've gone two years without being asked out, and I don't see it happening anytime in the future.

 

3. I haven't spent my life alone, and I don't expect to die alone because I have wonderful friends who will always be there. But I do expect to die without having had another romantic partner.
