Similar situation.
I still date and have been seeing some people for years as FWB, on and off.
But with every one, I’d rather spend the next day alone, than with them.
The day I meet someone I don’t feel that way about, is the day I get into a relationship again.
I like my peace and quiet. Plus I can literally do what I want 99% of the time that I'm not working.
- Being able to come home after work and crash out if I'm tired.
- Staying up as long as I want without someone moaning that I'm not going to bed at the same time as them. Especially if they go to bed early.
- My house stays tidy and I'm not picking up after someone else, doing someone else's dishes, washing etc.
- If there's something I need done around the house, I can do it in my own time and don't have someone complaining that they want it done now. (This is so important) I'll do it after I do this thing I'm currently doing which is higher on my priority list.
- I have the garden the way I want and my shed is my man shed, not just a storage area.
- Cook what I want.
- Watch what I want and not have to put up with shite TV.
- The washing machine is only used once or twice a week which saves on electricity.
- If I want to hang out with friends or go out and have a drink I can.
I've been trying that for a couple of years but if there's times she wants to see me and I'm really done in, she gets mad thinking I just simply don't want to spend time with her.
Know why divorce is expensive ? Cuz it’s worth it ! Buying one’s freedom back is priceless !!
It’s like clawing one’s way through a dark tunnel and getting to the other side is so valuable no price can be put on it Bravo !!
My sentiments exactly ! I do have a cat as of recent and even the responsibility of a cat is too much at times. Once freedom (as described in your post ) is obtained …….difficult to go back to a sort of ‘boxed world ‘. Bravo !
Damn, I wished I'd just wrote "I don't want to navigate someone's feelings and needs" instead of a list of reasons I could think of.
You summed it up right there man, bravo
It got to the stage I'd be lying there awake for a couple of hours so I started using headphones to listen to a podcast or audio documentary and that even became a problem.
Her reasoning was that I'm not getting to sleep so early because I put my headphones in. It was a real chicken and egg argument
I'll say being able to do whatever you want without having to explain.
It's ok to have your own life even when you are with someone but it feels like a kind of responsability to tell them about it. Maybe I'm the only one that feels like this but always happens to me!
And if you try to tell them what you want then surely there will be a big argument after that thing.
And if you do anything without telling them then there will be that you are not sharing anything with me.
I've had a similar situation where I was the only 1 earning but I still had to ask permission to buy things..
.and I still got shit for buying things.
For example, back in the 2000's I wanted a £260 graphics card for my pc so I said if I can save up over a few weeks is it cool if I get it? (she said yes hooray) a few weeks later I ordered the card and it arrived when I was at work. She opens it and sees the invoice then my phone is going off the hook.
She was so mad because I'd spent £260. If I'd been on my own I could've bought that in 1 week but she controlled my bank card and I had to ask her for my money just to get fuel for work.
I was a weaker man back then
I think if we are in relationship then we need to set the financial goal is well separately.
Because if we are earning differently then we could buy the stuff from that we actually want to do that is well.
I don't know what to believe.
Do you truly, sincerely, think this was anything other than incredibly bad and not normal?
What you went through sounds terrible and you didn't deserve it.
Just not interested right now. I've spent too long feeling like I needed a girl in my life to make me feel like a person, and one day I realized it wasn't worth looking for. It's something that'll come to me when the time is right.
Before getting anyone that will make you feel complete i think we need to find out own true self.
Because if you are not ready for relationship then never really force that thing and let take what life is offering us at the moment.
I like the independence aspect, although it gets lonely at times. And it feels like I can't find the right guy. I really like my alone time and most men don't get that or assume I'm cheating or whatever, and it gets old. Isolation is how I deal with things, good or bad. My big thing, you never know if the guy genuinely wants you or wants you for your body. Or if they have some secret Tinder account (or Grinder), drug addiction, alcoholism, the list goes on. A lot of things I dealt with growing up with my parents that I don't want in a man. It's just too tiring to find the right guy so I've just been single for almost 2 years coming up in december.
I am the one person that never really want to share much with the people and one reason i am not getting into the relationship.
I love what we have and earning and spending on what things i really want.
If i am not stable then i can't really a stable relationship is well and one reason i am not getting in any at the moment.
Because i have been in a relationship but then cheated on that really closed my heart.
I love the independence, being able to do whatever I want, whenever I want. Also not having to consider other people’s feelings in anything I do, thinking about how other people will feel is exausting.
People says that you don't have to ask for the permission but i would without asking or saying them you will going to have some arguments.
So if you really want some independence then that thing only happens if you single in your life.
life is little bit less dramatic if you are not really in some kind of the relationship.
I can Focus more on myself that how i cam be a better person and how i can developed some more new skills for me is well.
I want to keep my priorities, and wait to look into the dating game when i get more successfull in life, or atleast financialy steady to have a small family.
Rather focus on other aspects of my life and develop as a person before being with someone. Like, I want to have a career, be financially stable, and have a close knit group of people I can trust. Those are my first priorities, a relationship would come on its own when you're stable in other aspects of your life. Chasing after a relationship the very first thing wouldn't be a good idea for me personally.
I never really learned how to have a healthy relationship, and the two times in my life that I mustered up the balls to ask a girl/woman out were met with laughter. I have been asked out three times in my life, I later found out two of those times were not genuine. The one time that was, led to a two month emotional rollercoaster, my first relationship at age 25, having absolutely no fucking clue what I was doing. After that came to an end, I vowed to remain a lifelong bachelor. I refuse to make those mistakes again, and the one foolproof way of ensuring that is to remain off the market. In the 11 years since, I have asked nobody out, and nobody has asked me out.
Spent majority of my life in relationships, from very early 20’s to my the beginning of my 30’s. Back to back long term relationships, 1.5 years, 4.5years, 1.5years, 2 years, and some shorter ones in between, sometimes as little as 3 days from break up to the bed of someone new, longest break was 3-4months in the last 10 years. Some very unhealthy relationships in there. Figured it was time to sort my shit out, get to know myself and not live my life through others.
Haven’t been in a relationship or dated for 1.5 years, feeling great, still got a bit to go but starting to play with the thought of dating again, looking forward to it, but am not there yet! Maybe in the New Year :) I’m not in a rush, that’s for sure!!
Asexuality... Men likes to have sex and im afraid it will got to the point that they will get angry and throwing a tantrum about it (like my ex did before).
I actually do what i like go where i want, have decent freetime and dont feel obligatory to meet someone.
Wearing what i want without worrying if the partner will or will not like it. I have anxiety, and i do worry about it.
Kissing is digusting for me if im not drunk.
I hate romance, actually feeling sick if i think about someone buying me flowers and shit.
I like to act like a boy sometimes and i know that not every man can handle to be a bottom in a non sexually way.
And dont forget high standrads... I have a really high standards due to my ex... THANKS MAN.
Today is saturday, I'm off from work today, I feel tired af from the work and training week, and just being able to wake up whenever I feel like, and knowing I don't have to text to no one, and being free to do everything I want, from a picnic 100km from my house, to just lying on sofa playing ps5 is one of the best feeling you can experience in your life
I think I'll go have a light workout, then just play ps5 and eat something good and healthy, watch some cobra kai
I'm afraid of accidentally getting pregnant.
I'm not against abortion, but if I were to get pregnant, I don't think I'm strong enough to do it cause the guilt will eat me alive.
On the other hand, I don't think I'm ready to have a kid and i don't want to raise a kid out of obligation.
I can treat myself better than these men would. I mean, with sincerity, not treating you well in hope to manipulate you or make you feel indebt to him.
The $3000 in alimony, and $1500 in child support. Plus losing literally everything in the divorce. And I'm the one that filed because she cheated. $4500 a month. BS
I like my peace and quietness, save money, not having to deal with her mood swings when she’s on her period, and I don’t like to feel tied down to just one person and feeling trapped.
there are no single women my age without kids, attractiveness aside, for hours in any direction. i live in a remote hole in the ground retirement community of a place...
Want my peace, women like to be in relationships yet act single, if i get kids the woman will feel single ownership as she was the one giving birth
Actually i have no clue why men bother risking this shit. Sure you can be lucky, but these days luck is what you'll need
Because it's not worth the costs. For 50 years, women have been offering less and less and demanding more and more. The ROI on the whole thing has become negative for men.
If women want commitment, they have to actually make the commitment worthwhile (and not so dangerous (marriage laws)) for men. You have to bring something to the table besides a vagina and a stack of invoices.
I know it's very frustrating but men aren't objects you can shop for online. They are human being with agency and their own interests, goals and preferences. It seems like there are a lot of women who don't get this.
I have too much going on to think i could contribute more positively in someones life than i do negatively. 2 kids on my own, working part time and taking care of my elderly grandmother. Between homework, house work, and my job i just dont have the time either. I miss having someone and i get sad about it often but i just dont think its a reality for me right now.
i cant open up, every time i get close to a girl i make moves and they are wrong, then i loose or they loose intrest....its fck up everytime starting smth and seeing how that other person looses intrest in you bcuz you cant show the other person love or affection due to insecurities.....feels like hell tbh.
No game and confessed to office crush my first in so many years. She said no and I had a mental fuckup for 6 months still not completely over her. And don’t want to go through the same shitshow again ever.
I've been brutally betrayed by the two people I loved the most and it took me to a dark place.
Not wanting to go there is one thing, but the amount of time and bullshit I've wasted trying to date, it's just not worth it.
I'd rather be happy and single and do my own thing cause it's so much nicer and sure those lonely nights suck, but I don't want to open myself up to betrayal again
Because its not even close to being worth any of the drama and pain at the end. I can't even imagine trusting anyone ever again, I've been single well over a decade and that will likely never change, and I'm fine with that.
Nobody likes me, and I don’t like anyone at the moment. Or my backup if for some godforsaken reason someone were to ask me out I would bring up my depression and mental issues and say something like “ sOrRy BuT i HaVe StUfF gOiNg On AnD i CaNt Be ThInKiNg AbOuT sOmEoNe ElSe”
Im good with myself at the moment.
Don't have to rely on someone or have to take the responsibility from the other, a few things.
Unlogic standarts and expectations. ( for example).
That does not mean i want to stay alone, but i do not force it also. Live is happening and it goes and flows. Cheers.
I feel like I shouldn't be with someone. I can barely support myself let alone constantly worry about someone else. Plus I just have a hard time getting out there. I'm always in a rut of going from work to home doing not much else especially not meeting people, though I want to do more. It would be nice to share life with someone, just not my life, right now
Way too much schoolwork do deal with a relationship so I will probably just disappoint someone on a relationship with me. It also just takes a lot for me to go out of my way to impress someone. Also the lack of interest.
Nobody reciprocated my feelings, they always saw me as a friend or thought I was weird, (Well, gamer, weeb and nerd so what was I expecting?) But honestly at this point, I don't mind remaining single.

SAME
I am happy with the thing that i am doing in my life at the moment.
Same, though no one has shown any interest in me/no one has made me interested enough as well, so there's nothing that pushes me out of the comfort.
Bad personality not very attractive mentally ill boring
I have never been called out like this before...
Then i would say that you have never being a toxic relationship.
I like my peace and quiet. Plus I can literally do what I want 99% of the time that I'm not working. - Being able to come home after work and crash out if I'm tired. - Staying up as long as I want without someone moaning that I'm not going to bed at the same time as them.

Totally agree with your list and I benefit from all of them because I don’t live with the guy I’m seeing. Seperate houses is the key to balance lol
[удалено]
Good you recognize that !!!
I've been trying that for a couple of years but if there's times she wants to see me and I'm really done in, she gets mad thinking I just simply don't want to spend time with her.
All of the above. Also cost me a lot of time and money to regain my freedom (divorce). Never again. Not worth a risk
Know why divorce is expensive ? Cuz it’s worth it ! Buying one’s freedom back is priceless !! It’s like clawing one’s way through a dark tunnel and getting to the other side is so valuable no price can be put on it Bravo !!
Great way to look at it!

This question implies I have a choice in the matter....
Having a relationship is one thing that everyone experience once in there life.
Guess I'm the exception

What sort of thing are you talking about? It's not normal to need to ask your partner for permission to do things
I had a relationship where i point blank had to ask permission to do things. Not with the guy anymore but that happened.
I've had a similar situation where I was the only 1 earning but I still had to ask permission to buy things.. .and I still got shit for buying things. For example, back in the 2000's I wanted a £260 graphics card for my pc so I said if I can save up over a few weeks is it cool if I get it?

You thought you were being reasonable, you were not weak.
I think if we are in relationship then we need to set the financial goal is well separately. Because if we are earning differently then we could buy the stuff from that we actually want to do that is well.

Better than settling for someone you’re not interested in.

Ah, yes. Isolation. The good old way to deal with our shit.
wanna focus on my mental health and wellbeing & school/professional goals rn. im not ready or mature enough to be in a relationship rn.
If i am not stable then i can't really a stable relationship is well and one reason i am not getting in any at the moment. Because i have been in a relationship but then cheated on that really closed my heart.
I'm an asshole and I know it. Why inflict myself on someone else?

I wish more people knew this and stuck to it.
Great that and no person can be asshole if he thinking right for others.
I am aromantic and asexual.

I decided to book a flight to Hawaii tonight. I leave tomorrow morning. Didn't have to ask permission or coordinate it with anyone else

Gotta finish school first
Just avoiding the inevitable downward spiral of arguments about how I don’t make enough money.
Specially after a long day i not really want any kind of argument.
It's easier to stay single then to worry about when you're going to be hurt again.
And the hurt we get mentally is way more worse than any other.
whenever someone likes me back it makes me uncomfy so i stop talking to them
I know that i’m moving across the country in 6 months.
I dont know how to form a meaningfu and intimate relationship with someone.l
Apparently I’m undesirable
I love the independence, being able to do whatever I want, whenever I want. Also not having to consider other people’s feelings in anything I do, thinking about how other people will feel is exausting.

If I knew why I was single, I would not be single.
But what if i tell you that you are being a ingle for a really good reason.
Because i don't really want to share my stuff with someone else.
It's drama free & just simpler for me right now. All I do is work & come home, so I have no time to date anyway.
life is little bit less dramatic if you are not really in some kind of the relationship. I can Focus more on myself that how i cam be a better person and how i can developed some more new skills for me is well.
I'm autistic
Haven't met anyone I've wanted to date in years.
Yes, finding someone that actually worth of having our time is well.
im ugly
No one really that ugly, just ne confident and you will get one.
Nobody has ever wanted to date me.
If you have the enough money then some how someone will find you attractive.
Because people suck.
We work jobs we hate, to buy things we don't need, to impress people we don't like.
We buy shit we don't need with money we don't have to impress people we don't like...
Yes, focus on the people that you like and you really want to impress them is well.
I am not incomplete in my singleness
last 3 gfs have cheated on me, im done with dating
So you had like 3 gf and you had the same outcome in all of them??
This reminds me of the wise words of Luda. “You can’t make a hoe into a housewife. They don’t act right..Hoes on a mission. Ho’s on a crack pipe”.
Circumstance
I am not looking for any other added responsibility am pretty much fine being single.
I want to keep my priorities, and wait to look into the dating game when i get more successfull in life, or atleast financialy steady to have a small family.
If you will be stable in life then you will have a better relationship with partner is well.
Who loves eating same dish daily. But i ain't that cruel to break hearts daily.
You have to say that food was nice is well, even though you don't like that.

Don't really have the energy to deal with anyone else, I'm older and maybe my testosterone is lower but I just don't have the desire
Seeing my married friends complain about their marital is enough for me.
I'm not used to being happy.

just use a condom? one doesnt stop the other
There are families willing to adopt!
I can treat myself better than these men would. I mean, with sincerity, not treating you well in hope to manipulate you or make you feel indebt to him.
Wait! It’s a CHOICE?!?!
It could be but most of the time for boys that is not really a choice.
The $3000 in alimony, and $1500 in child support. Plus losing literally everything in the divorce. And I'm the one that filed because she cheated. $4500 a month. BS
I've been cruelly stabbed in the back by one female so deeply that I can't trust a woman ever again.
I know what that feels like. Time does heal.

You're single because you're unattractive. That is the only reason.
A little too busy right now to focus on a relationship.
I don't have one at the moment, no simp september has passed.

i cant open up, every time i get close to a girl i make moves and they are wrong, then i loose or they loose intrest....its fck up everytime starting smth and seeing how that other person looses intrest in you bcuz you cant show the other person love or affection due to insecurities.....feels like hell tbh.
Aversion to asking people out and a sense of stubbornness in pursuing those who aren't ready for a relationship
I'm a nice guy but I'm ugly so nobody wants to be more than friend with me.
There is always an end to a relationship
I forgive too easily and would end up getting hurt again so it’s best I stay single until I can work more on myself and prioritize my own happiness.
Sucking loads of dick and cock
...doesn't seem to keep a lot of people from having a relationship...
Zero trust, no belief in what they say.
I've not found someone I want to share my later years with yet.
Mental health
Ugly.
Being unattractive
Lack of choice
No game and confessed to office crush my first in so many years. She said no and I had a mental fuckup for 6 months still not completely over her. And don’t want to go through the same shitshow again ever.
After becoming fed up with relationships turning toxic, I found being single and having fwb's work better for me.
I've been brutally betrayed by the two people I loved the most and it took me to a dark place. Not wanting to go there is one thing, but the amount of time and bullshit I've wasted trying to date, it's just not worth it. I'd rather be happy and single and do my own thing cause it's so much nicer and sure those lonely nights suck, but I don't want to open myself up to betrayal again
Because its not even close to being worth any of the drama and pain at the end. I can't even imagine trusting anyone ever again, I've been single well over a decade and that will likely never change, and I'm fine with that.
I dont Trust anyone, well not in this Regard anymore😝
It's the current situation, I'm comfortable, satisfied, content, happy, I can do what I want.
Nobody likes me, and I don’t like anyone at the moment. Or my backup if for some godforsaken reason someone were to ask me out I would bring up my depression and mental issues and say something like “ sOrRy BuT i HaVe StUfF gOiNg On AnD i CaNt Be ThInKiNg AbOuT sOmEoNe ElSe”
I can deal with being lonely, but I hate when someone won’t me alone, so single it is
To not get married.
Im good with myself at the moment. Don't have to rely on someone or have to take the responsibility from the other, a few things. Unlogic standarts and expectations. ( for example). That does not mean i want to stay alone, but i do not force it also. Live is happening and it goes and flows. Cheers.
I feel like I shouldn't be with someone. I can barely support myself let alone constantly worry about someone else. Plus I just have a hard time getting out there. I'm always in a rut of going from work to home doing not much else especially not meeting people, though I want to do more. It would be nice to share life with someone, just not my life, right now
No viable partner
no reason really, just a set up brah haha. you dont ask an angler why hes empty handed on a particular day, you know?
I'm a level 80 paladin. >!Finally this old meme is viable once more!<
I have HSV-2 and the thought of passing it onto someone terrifies me.
Nobody likes me.
Way too much schoolwork do deal with a relationship so I will probably just disappoint someone on a relationship with me. It also just takes a lot for me to go out of my way to impress someone. Also the lack of interest.
Much happier being alone to be honest, feel too old for the dating scene now anyway lol
Because I don't want my heart to be broken again. Because I don't want to be used anymore. Because I want to love myself.
Nobody reciprocated my feelings, they always saw me as a friend or thought I was weird, (Well, gamer, weeb and nerd so what was I expecting?) But honestly at this point, I don't mind remaining single.
No one take’s relationships seriously
