For your whole life, without a love relationship between you and a significant other (excluding family and friends) ?

No. I'm not a happy person, that would probably make me a lot happier.

sure, but you'd be missing a lot. although if your time is occupied with other things, then i doubt you'd be too worried about a relationship.

Can't say I feel like I'm missing a lot right now, honestly. I've had plenty of opportunities so far, but I guess I have a complete lack of interest (except for the physical attraction).

Why not ? Maybe you couldn't live happily, but to say you couldn't live ? I mean, you've survived during your childhood without a significant other...

I haven't had any real relationships in my 16 years on this planet and I'm doing fine. And I honestly don't really care if I do become a 40 year old virgin, I have other things to keep me happy;)

you have a life span of about 70-80 years. just because its not hitting you now doesn't mean it won't hit you later. plus it could just be that you're comfortable with yourself. most people that MUST HAVE a bf/gf usually don't think highly of themselves and need a crutch by their side so they don't feel empty. thank you community college psych.

Well, I truly do love my wonderful self... :D

Honestly, there are some things that would make me a lot happier in life (things I'm still trying to achieve).

Why not ? Maybe you couldn't live happily, but to say you couldn't live ? I mean, you've survived during your childhood without a significant other...

Because life is made up of experiences. Why would you want to miss out on an experience that is so readily at hand? (and by live, I meant live happily.)

Other things make me happy, and while I'm not a generally ''happy as a rainbow'' guy, I'm quite satisfied with my life and I wouldn't change a lot of things about it (wish I could be smarter though). Maybe I just don't like girls enough to put up with all the issues related to relationships. Being your own boss rocks, at least so far.

I would always feel this sort of emptiness, and I would be disappointed at myself all the time. I already get this awkward feeling for never having a girlfriend, and I'm 17. I feel like I missed my chances in high school, and life only gets busier when I move on to university next year.

I don't know, I think I'm a decent guy when it comes to ''boyfriend potential'', and I like to think I'm the one who decides whether I'm single or not. Maybe it's actually a defense mechanism because no girl will ever consider me ? *cries while laughing*

Thats what I thought, there is always someone out there for you, that will love you no matter how you act or what you look like. They will love you for *you*. Now im not a bad looking guy but im shy as hell and im lucky my girlfriend dosen't mind making all the first moves :P I call her the man of the relationship! Have a better attitude because there is always someone out there for you :)

A little bit of both.  In all honesty,  I have no potential, nor no future, I'm pretty much devoid of success.  And to be honest, I'll be very upset and pissed with my life if I settle down early.  I want to do quite a bit of traveling (not vacation, traveling on foot).  It's the only thing that I've always wanted to do.

I tend to find that people let me down all the time, why devote myself to someone what will inevitably let me down.

I've lived 19 years without a significant other, i could live 19 more.Â
