Why society hate Forever Alones?

[basilandthyme]

well I guess value of your social status very much depends on place where you live. For exaple, in huge city such as London nobody gives a cr*p wether you are married, single etc. But in small town everybody knows everything ( my explenation is they have nothing on their hands so they are killing time "acting cool" etc.) so Yes, your marriage status here is very important and people will look down to you if there is something wrong.

I think this is one of the most valid points raised so far. I'm in inner city Sydney and nobody gives a crap about whether or not a person is in a relationship. In our area, we have openly gay schoolteachers, a predominantly atheist outlook and many bleeding heart lefties....none of which receives criticism from the majority. Compared to the variety and acceptance of those around us, being single is of zero interest.

But in a more conservative area, I can imagine that people may have more judgemental views.

Indi, how did you ever get to thinking you would be a Forever Alone: you're goddamned beautiful! No ****ing way that'd happen.

Forever Alone isn't just about physical looks. You'd be surprised how many 'beautiful' people think they will never find someone who will truly love them. Did my looks give me happiness in my marriage? No.

I was so tired after giving my all and then some to my ex. I just gave up. Stopped hoping. I really thought I was going to be alone for a very long time. Then a miracle happened. All because I took a risk (okay I was pushed into e-dating, but whatever) and met the love of my life.

This is why I tell all of you not to worry. Be willing to put yourself out there. It may take a while but you will find the one who is right for you.

that's a faulty generalization...

I personally like them because of how interpersonal the friendship gets and the demonstrated support system which I lacked as a child.

you must be trying to flame

Of course it is. Was meant to be.

I like how everybody on here throws the "WILL find the one" when finding someone can be extraordinarily unlikely, as in cases such as mine.

[HeartIsAching]

I love how you assume you won't... which pretty much guarantees it's true.

If you don't put yourself out there, then yes, of course. Even though I 'gave up' I was still out there, even if reluctantly. He couldn't have found me otherwise.

Well, this summer I'm stepping outside my comfort zone and going for it IRL but when I fail, I think somebody or two owes me a Coke..

[YoungCosmo]

I think I had something last night in a restaurant as were leaving, but I was in a daze after a long day and crashing from sugar so I literally couldn't think of anything to say. We were in an uptown area so while my friends decided to go home after the movie, I thought I'd get a coffee and maybe try something if opportunity presented itself, especially if I were to have run into that girl I am mentioning. Didn't happen, sadly. At least I know I would've tried.

I don't feel the need to be in a relationship. Every couple (both married and unmarried) whom I personally know of don't seem to love each other now. The passion is gone, and the married ones look as if they're stuck together without the passion.

[YoungCosmo]

Both cases are WAY better than being single. If one is involuntarily single, one isn't living life at all.

Too many sit on their butts feeling sorry for themselves, without doing anything to take actions in their own hands.

Loneliness is simply a state of mind, and can be fixed by either mingling with others, or if its truely biochemical.. meds.
