Now that I think about it, it's not so much beng single that gets me, it's more the peer pressure from my family and some friends... almost every time I meet older folk (or even not-so-old) from my family in some social gathering, someone is bound to quip along the lines of "you should really meet a nice girl" or "I was looking forward to seeing you here with a date" or "You're such a dashing and positive young man, yet you don't have a girl on your arm".

 

Dashing, my ass.

I want to marry someday, but my right hand is registered under the same social security number as my own .

 

It will happen for you - but Alphifa is right, try to never put your self down its your right to feel good about your self. Listen to more rock and heavy metal music.

Let me guess, you live with your parents, may or may not have a part time job?

Or your parents are generous with you?

You got good digs at the house and life is comfy? (not having a go im just guessing from experience based on your post)

[Agozer]

Living with 'a' parent, moving out in 6 months time or so. I have a job, full-time. Don't know how long that lasts though. As far as generosity goes, I suppose so.

That's part of the problem, humans are raised to believe that they need a partner, when in fact they don't.

I am shocked by the amount of guys here who would prefer or believe they will be single all their lives... and are just OKAY with it!

 

First and foremost, there is no way we were not designed to have a partner. If we're designed to reproduce and have sex...then a partner must be involved. There's a reason why women get so attached after a few nights of sex and oxytocin (google it) running through their bloodstreams. From our primal ancestors to today... men, just as much as woman, need partners, and there are consequences involved for not fulfilling this requirement.

 

From personal experience (and not from a simple random sample), I know too many men who have given up on the fact of finding women. They resort to constant nightly porn and masturbation and can not gather courage and willpower to approach women they desire and start conversation. They get too nervous, get the jitters, heart starts racing uncontrollably, and they flee. After many years of this, they throw the flag, and give up completely. During the day, they tell people they are happy living without a woman, but at night they are filled with insomnia and long for a beautiful woman to have sex with or be by their side.

 

Much of this I blame on the Dotcom/Technological revolution of the 21st century, as too many men have become engulfed on computers, video games, and the Internet. As a result, I have seen quite a few suffer from common symptoms -- such as, hand sweats (can't even shake hands with men) and having to deal with an entire host of OCD issues because the little things in life take over their brains. Their gaming consoles, video games, and computers become their lives and prize possessions. There has to be a medium or were JUST WASTING OUR FUCKING TIME!

 

I firmly believe we need partners... doesn't matter if your gay or straight... to live a happy and well-balanced lifestyle.

Yeah yall got to get stung by a woman!

It's inevitable really. The human body is designed to be attracted to at least the male or female, or both, whether that person desires to or not.

What conflicts?

mostly all relationships are affected by the one before it.

I think it's interesting that there are a lot of men who complain about being "Forever Alone", or try to act bitter about other people being in relationships when they haven't put forth the effort to try to approach females and create their own relationships. To me I get a satisfaction when I can talk to a person I've never met or seen before in my life like I've known them before, a smile or perfect annunciation and the tone of your voice makes it easy to talk to people, male or female. I find socializing more interesting than just approaching females, that seems a bit more narrow category.

I totally feel the same way. This might be one big difference between introverts and extroverts though... nevertheless, this doesn't break down the idea that both still need partners.
