Breaking up to be alone?

[moeburn]

I know its common to break up with someone to be with someone else, but I'm considering breaking up with a girl just to be alone. But for some reason, that sounds like a bad choice to me.

What do you think?

[King Zarathu]

Why do you feel it's a bad idea? I think it's fine if that's what you really want.

As long as you're happy.

[Gigabitch]

No, it totally makes sense to me.

What's wrong with being single, again?

[protonjai]

Being single is good, helps you prioritize your life without girls in the way.

You are only 17. I think being alone is the best possible thing you could do right now.

Shut up, woman.

[vashti]

Shut up, woman.

You are only 16. You'd be better off staying away from the girls, too. They are trouble at your age.

Especially the ones with disorders.

Being alone is much, much better than being with someone you don't want to be with or don't have feelings for. Don't feel like you HAVE to be in a relationship.

I totally agree. My boyfriend just broke up with me a few weeks ago and I'm certainly not looking to be in a relationship again in a long time. Will probably be single a few years or even longer than that and I don't see why you can't be just single. Life is so much less complicated without relationship issues. You have a lot more time to do other things and you can get back to whats important in life. For me thats probably TV. But it could be anything.

I used to talk like that, as recently as six months ago. Now I'm ga-ga. I'm setting my Sooky-timer to see how long it takes you...


Moeburn, what did you do? And this isn't the same girl you were going to buy a ring for, is it?

Mmm... I guess it’s within the realms of possibility that I could meet someone within the year. But considering my hermit TV dominated lifestyle its looking particularly dubious. Also I mostly work from home, which doesn't help with the social side of things. I only found the last guy because I went down the online dating route (maybe not the best way ever, but the easiest way for a nerdy loner like me.)

But then again, who knows. I could be taken over by alien mind control and be out partying it up and hooking up with guys next week. Anything’s possible.

Yeah I tend to be home alot nowadays. Im trying to find things to do to get me simply out of this damned house.

Sooky- You don't have to look for a new relationship or anything(and i would actually recommend against "looking" for one but never give up hope!

I am tempted to go party like nuts like the rest of the society and especially people my age, but I know I don't like it. I dont like being drunk, nor do I like the idea of casual sex. Sex is something so beautiful to me and I plan on waiting till I find a person with the same view as me. I might be alone forever. Who knows. But no matter, getting out to simply be around people is still a great idea.
