Just wondering if anyone can help me out here please?
Over the years it's become apparent that I am someone who doesn't like too much affection or sex. Even when I meet someone new at the start of a relationship it's not something I'm fussed with but I am aware to the other person this seems odd or cold. I tend to go along with it in the first few months and then slowly settle into my normal self.
Most ex partners have commented on my lack of wanting to give or receive affection on the same level as them and some have questioned my loyalty despite this not being an issue whatsoever.
I am not someone who relies heavily on affection to be assured of someone's feelings for me. For me it's more about the intellectual connection and the ability to be able to do things separately but in the same house, or just being able to relax and have a laugh about something on TV.
I enjoy my own company and solitary hobbies like reading, baking and gardening and very much enjoy a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere.
Does anyone think I am more suited to just companionship or is it that there is someone out there that would be suited to me? I am only 30 with a 3yo DD. I am career driven and financially independent and stable.
I just worry that I'll be own my own forever. It's not that I'm unhappy but the future seems a tad dull without having someone to share my life with in that sense.
Opinions welcome :)
