Do you wish you weren't single, then change your mind, a lot?

I do. Sometimes in the same day. One minute I’ll be wishing I had someone, the next minute, I’m thanking my lucky stars that I’m single.

I’m like that with everything. It feels like I’m channeling someone else’s opinion. It’s like I forget who I am and just parrot something I heard.

I confuse people. Someone will say “I thought you said you love romance movies?” And I’m like “Huh? what?”

In other words, you’re normal!

Scary cartoon! It’s like the 2 phases of my life. Before and during/after diagnosis.

I think you’ve just lifted a weight off my shoulders 77nick77!

It doesn’t bother me, to be honest, being single. But then I have always had certain uh, qualities. Idealistic, narcissistic, introverted, schizoid tendencies (preoccupied with fantasy), etc. What would be an enjoyable relationship to me, I don’t think it’s something that is possible in real life. I categorize it with the rest of my fantasies which I know will always be my cherished fantasies but nothing more. It’s actually not that hard to get a boyfriend/girlfriend, if that’s your only requirement, just a partner with a pulse, but there is no appeal in that for me. I sometimes get lonely for a close friend, but that’s about it.

Yes, I vary too. Today I feel lonely and wish very much that I had a boyfriend or husband like everyone I know. At other times I’m happy that I’m single though. I’m not sure if I could still adjust to someone. There is a friend who wants me to be his girlfriend. We see each other once a week and call sometimes. But I’m not interested in more with him and he knows and is fine with this.

Think I’m just still sabotaging my relationships and connecting to the wrong girls more then anything.

I sometimes get the urge to have a warm body near me while I am sleeping. Maybe that sounds kind of creepy! But it rarely happens so I just go on with life. If the right person comes along so be it.

I could of sworn I typed and replied to this question sometime not too long ago. It’s kinda messing with me.
I hope nothing bad happens.

I love being single. I’m Asexual anyway. It gives me the freedom to be myself and not keep sacrificing myself to help someone and they take advantage of it all. I’m not a selfish person. I gave all that I could and really made myself very vulnerable.
I have nobody and that’s ok with me. I just hate that someone used and abused me for that long (5 years).

I just wish I had a dog to get me out of the house and go on walks with. That’s all I need.
I’d feel safer with a dog too.
