I Want To Be Single For The Rest of My Life!

Late night musings have lead me to think about how I want to be single for the rest of my life, but I am pretty sure I would be anyway. I am not the relationship type of girl, and I say it with pride because society needs to learn being single is the icing on the cake. We live in this society where people are always buzzing about dressing up for dates, dressing up for weddings, but I just do not care.

I have had people in relationships say, “Oh do you feel left behind because I am dating so or so, or getting married?” Well, thanks for asking, but no, I love being single. There was a short period in my twenties where I dated and I thought I wanted those things, but I always ended up dating these guys who really did not like me much, and who were sort of rude to me really. That is just a waste of my time and I moved on and have not dated anyone in over three years. Amazing, right? I do not want to date, and I do not miss it at all!

When I was in my late twenties I realized I pursued things that did not work because I really did not want it to work. I really did not want to date, but I thought I did. I know it sounds improbable to some, but you can have all the fun sides of a relationship by watching a romantic movie for two hours, or by reading a novel with romantic elements. Truthfully I only liked those few moments in a relationship early on, and who knows, I have been pretty much single all my life, so nothing has ever been serious for me. At least I do not have to pretend to be something I am not. Being single is just so amazing because my time is my own, and I never have to go see in-laws, make dinner for him, or anything like that. I do cook, but I often make one dish and eat it three days in a row. I am sure a man would balk at that, which is why I am glad I am not married.

Why I Just Feel Like Being Single

I just cannot describe why I feel like being single so much, but I would prefer to write hubs on my sweetiepie profile at Hubpages.com than date. Going out and meeting new men is a brain drain for an introvert like me, and often I just want to wait at the bus stop without a person interrupting my piece. I am enjoying these days of just listening to the wind rustling throught the top of the palms trees as I walk past the business center for exercise. I enjoy sitting at my computer and typing my thoughts and feelings, and here are some ideas I have about being single.
