By far.
Why else a lot of people rush to have one?
People simply have a short memory it seems.
As for “being single is better than being with the wrong person” thing that we got so tired hearing, is a matter of a stupid choice, your stupid choice. You (those who say this silly line) can simply quit and become single if it’s that bad.

It’s easy to say you don’t need something when you have it.
Same as rich people always telling poor people they don’t need money. Sure a billionaire knows what it’s like to be poor
It’s always people with past relationships or in relationships telling forever alone people they better off single. Look no ones making them stay in a relationship if it’s so bad they should break up. Me thinks they enjoy their relationships. Me thinks they’d find another if their SO left them.
Being single might be better the. With wrong person but it’s not better then being with the right person

This.
A lot of women have no issue jumping from bf to bf. All the women at work are dating now. Bunch of coworkers hooked up together:(

Or we opt not to enter a relationship w/ someone we don't feel strongly about & remain single because it is a better option.. and I do. There have been people interested me, but I wasn't into them & would rather be single than try to fake being into them. Not interested in spending my time or theirs on something like that. And, of course, none that I've been truly interested in have been that-kind-of-attracted to me mutually, so, single I've remained. No way I'm ever going to have a relationship with anyone that I don't feel strongly attracted to. There've only been fewer than a handful of people who I'd have started a relatioship with if they were also into me.
But oh well, whatever, long term goals to focus on w/ casual sex here and there whenever I feel like it & I'll get by ok. If things change, if my idealds change, if I meet someone just write.. whatever, cross that bridge when I come to it. But for the time being remaining solo isn't exactly unappealing. I works out quite nicely, really. It's nice to have some fwb, but def not seeking a relationship. It'd have to just happen if it did, and it'd have to accomodate my schedule & life goals or it just won't happen if it's not meant to work out. lol single for 100% of my life lol like I'm suddenly going to have to add a relationship in the mix to juggle. Ha! Not likely, so, whatever.

Me, too. Retro hasn't posted anything wrong. Sly's pessimistic interpretation of Retro's posts get him riled up and it triggers him into reacting with the kinda nasty post he made. But I think that's just as heat of the moment envious reaction vs. true dislike for Retro.

This is how most normal people, male and female, behave (not all) but most, I think normal people are less intense and move on with their feelings quicker. Maybe this is to do with being able to identify which feeling exactly they are feeling, I don't know, but I am always surprised by what other people consider a reasonable time frame.

Being content to be single may be strongly influenced by a persons view of whether this is something they could change if they wanted to in the future. If you look back and see you have been single by choice that is very different to looking back and seeing that you had no options. If you feel you have no options behind you why would any miraculously turn up in your future. This is a depressing thought.
But there have been no viable options. No one I've ever been interested in has been interested in me. I haven't been interested in any of the ones who were interested in me. (more than the ones I was interested in) I could depress myself by assuming this will continue forever, or, just accept that whatever happens happens and along the way I'm still going to get the friendship love I need from my close friends & family/God kids etc, and still going to have as active of a sex life as I feel like it (I'm not everyone's cup of tea, but it's not very difficult to hookup at all), and I'm still going to move forward with work, finances, academic goals etc.. and IF I ever meet someone I truly mutually click with, well, then I/we explore that and see what happens. That's just how life goes for some of us who aren't so easily paired for one of many reasons.

Glad you explained, I was starting to wonder.
I am, by the way, nothing like a pillow.
I don't think I will always be alone, life is never that predictable.
I can do several different English accents, sometimes I vear into using them without realising. My two favourites are Wolverhampton and an upper middle class WWII accent (Sam in Foyle's War).
