the rest of your life.......

 

 

 

 

you ain't getting any younger, or prettier....

 

 

I see lonely people all the time, eating alone, mindlessly playing with their smart phones pretending they have friends..... I know i'm not the only one here who has done it.

I used to be bothered by coming off as "alone".

 

Eating out alone, going to a movie alone, wandering the mall alone.

 

 

People typically do that kind of stuff with others.

 

 

Now I enjoy my solitude. Take my time with things, do what I want.

 

 

Being alone forever? The idea sucks. But I am capable of being happy alone, and I know this. The only time being alone hurts is when I'm longing for someone I'll never have.

You might be reading too much into it sometimes. You never know if someone is enjoying their solitude and has plenty of friends when they're doing these things. There have been times when I've just wanted to go out and do something by myself, even if I could have called someone.

Id be ok being alone. I have had a lot of ****ty relationships so I am usually happier alone than with someone. But on the other hand I hate shoveling snow.

I don't give a **** if I'm alone or not, happy either way. I figure if I'm happy with myself being alone then being in a relationship is an added bonus. A partner should add to my life, not become my life.

 

What I find sad is people who can't be single for more than 5 minutes out of fear of being alone. They jump on the first person they find, even though they are incompatible. All born out of insecurity, now that is sad in my opinion.

Ugh. I can't stomach the though of being alone at 30, much less the rest of my life. There are people who can be happy alone, sure, but it's not me. It's not in my nature, and I honestly don't believe it's in our nature as humans.

 

Heh. Maybe that's why I struggle so much in relationships.

I really love my life. I'm ok if alone. Normally I have so many people around me that I'm screaming (inside) to be left alone to do my own things.
