How many of you don't care if you have a girlfriend/boyfrien

Post Reply New Topic

I have decided I just dont care if I have a girlfriend.


I think I will just get to my genetic limits in life and own some exotic animals.

For a long time, I've wanted a special someone in my life. My first love broke up with me a little over two years ago, and I was looking for someone to replace her. But, now I have moved onto acceptance. I am much happier now, and okay with being single, but would still loved it if I ended up meeting someone else.

I do care. I just don't want one. There was a time that I didn't care, and women threw themselves at me, because that's what happens when you stop caring: they start caring. So I went back to caring, and I'm still single. It's nice, because I just want my peace and quiet, and girlfriends are loud and obnoxious and don't know when to shut up. She can find some other guy to give her a black eye-I'm too busy writing things. Women are a hassle and an unnecessary burden.

I "care" because it affects my life (for better and worse), but I don't mind or suffer for not having a boyfriend. It's specific individuals that I concern myself with.

I did not care much when I was in my mid-twenties but I do care now. At least a little bit. I have some other important issues to deal with ... I'd like to have children but I first want to have enough money to care for them. A regular work and income would be nice.

Its not a bout neccesarily caring its about other priorities in your life.

I don't think you go out and find someone intentionally, I always feel its something that happens when you least expect. I think making friends and sharing experiances of the human condition with others who stimulate your life and enrich your world are more important to your happiness and well being then these semi-structured social constructs we call "dates"

Go out, get a life, literally...best advice i can give you

Better off without

I do care, and have no doubt I'd be better off with. And with love-shyness, you are definitely going to care.

I don't care if I have one just to have one. I mean, if there was someone I really really liked and I couldn't be with them I might mind, but I don't care to have one just for the sake of it. I have someone I could date (well, date more seriously) right now and I don't really care to because I don't see the point unless I have really strong feelings for him.

My mindset has always been it'd be nice to be with someone but it isn't the be and end all. Especially now with having so much else on the go, thanks to university and work which has been so consuming I've barely had a social life (at uni) for the last month or so. I have my vision and my plans all laid out for the next 18 months at least and will make sure nothing gets in the way of that.

The irony in all of this, is that I'm going on a date tomorrow, which if all goes to plan, I'll then have to fit a relationship into what is already a pretty busy lifestyle I have. But I'd rather have that problem then not have it.

I like to think I don't care, but fact is I do. I'm so lonely these days.

You can't live with them, you can't live without them.
If a man resigns himself to that paradox, he may get ulcers in the breadbox, but he will have no bats in the belfry.
But often they are like drinks for the alcoholic. One is never enough.
To abstain is to chose the life of a Trappist monk and to die of indigestion.
If I had my life to live over, I would chose a job as the live-in manager of a cathouse. I could pursue my second job in my spare time and I would be nicely edified in my manager's job and paid for it. I think this is what they call having one's cake and eating it too.

Having a partner doesnt neccesarily cure lonliness if anything it can lead to dependency and that isn't healthy at all cause it just causes stress to them for you to rely on them for your sole social life or activity.

Companionship is something you find in friends as much as lovers
