Hmm, am bored and was perusing the subforums here and noticed this sub. What are we allowed to talk about?
This is one issue that's been on my mind for many years. I was married to someone in a foreign country, but we were only together for 2.5 months. I divorced her earlier this year. But, with the exception of a couple of brief internet relationships, and that marriage that didn't work out, I've been single for 25 years. People don't notice me and ignore me and it's been like that a LONG TIME.
I've lived as a hermit as long. I've come to the point where I have mostly accepted this reality, and I realize I would be terrible in a romantic relationship anyway. I like the freedom to do what I want, when I want. But there are times when I do feel loneliness. As I've gotten older, I've wondered when I will ever meet anyone, if ever (I _do_ believe I will be alone the rest of my life).
I like friendships because it comes with all the benefits of a relationship without the drawbacks. You can come and go as you please and maintain a safe distance. But still, some times it would be nice to have someone.
Just posting my thoughts here.
