24 Things Single People Are Tired Of Hearing

I do feel like having a relationship is overrated, not everyone needs one to be happy. Why do people in relationships get to "feel sorry" for people not in one?

Because it's not the "social norm." I'll chime in with a little bit of my personal past (unwarranted but going to anyways) I dated a girl for over 10 years off and on and over 8 years steady. We met in elementary school and started dating in middle school. We went all the way through our sophomore year of college (we also went to the same college). We started bickering a lot and drifting apart around that time and she was wanting to quit school and have a baby extremely hardcore for some reason, and I just wasn't going to do that. Long story short, we broke up and she quit school and year and half later she was prego. Broke my heart, and ever since then I just can't find that connection that we had. I don't know if its the connection I miss or the comfortability I miss. IDK. ANYWAYS, I've met women in my age range (I'm 25) and they're either sketchy as hell or severely immature. Am I happy being single? Yes. Do I miss that odd/beautiful/nagging connection? Yes. It's just a really weird time for guys in our age to find someone thats compatible and not absolutely bat **** crazy. Hope this helps you, I feel better just telling someone else something that I've been keeping to myself for quite a while.. Even if it is to people I don't know.

Alpha, I can't begin to tell you how accurate of a portrayal that was of my own life in the present. It's like many of them possess the same M.O. and have baggage they seem to lug around that they're unwilling to part from.

+1

but I'm 23 though. I definitely agree on the immature part. I see a lot of girls who are immature and it's just a turn off for me.
