Do you think you will be alone for the rest of your life?

Yes. Who would love a physically disabled, and mentally fragile person like me?

I think itā€™s possible I could be alone for the rest of my life. I go on a lot of superficial dates, without mentioning diagnoses and so-called disability. I donā€™t know who will accept me, or if I can accept the kind of people who could accept me. I have accomplished little in the last 2 years since I was actively psychotic for many months of it. I choose to be alone and write about my adventures.

Most likely, yes. Have been most of my life.

I live with my spouse who stuck with me after my diagnosis and put up with me before meds. But if we weā€™re not together. I would choose to be alone.

I probably will be basically alone in that regard. I may have women talk and possibly flirt a little with me. But Iā€™ll probably never have a real relationship with them. My socialization skills are too poor, and itā€™s difficult to find a way to give and take rather than just take.

I would like to have a partner.
I fear Iā€™ll be all alone when my brother passes. However, I donā€™t want to be with someone just to avoid being alone

Never was good at romance.

Iā€™m totally burnt out on romantico/sexual relationships. Iā€™m done. Iā€™m blissfully happy alone now.

I was married for a decade but my husband couldnā€™t take my health issues. I am on the more normal side of schizophrenic too in that I no longer hallucinate and I donā€™t act unusually unless there is something really stressful but this medication was found once divorce was decided. Now, I am not prepared to go into a relationship for fear of what is at risk such as my home and stability. I am pretty much on my own with my daughter. It is lonely and mostly quite boring because I am on welfare!

I had twice a chance to be with a girl. But I wasnā€™t interested in it. I prefered skateboarding with my friends. I was thinking about sex but I never was so attached to having something going on with a girl, I mean relationship.

I lost the desire for having someone around me. And with schizophrenia I donā€™t like to be around people. If a girl would be here it would surely annoy me.

I donā€™t know. Iā€™d prefer to be alone, but I doubt if people are willing to leave me alone.

I hope not. I donā€™t necessarily need a romantic relationship.
But Iā€™d hate to go through life without a good companion by my side

If you felt better youā€™d think otherwise.

I think people have forgotten marriage is about hardworking and dedication to a unit. To a partnership.

Itā€™s not about a means to provide something ā€œdifferentā€ to single life. Itā€™s to complement it?
