I'm single and I'm perfectly happy. I wouldn't want anyone in my life right now or for the foreseeable future.

Single for 5 years now. 90% of the time I'm happy. Had a date yesterday and i don't know why I bothered 😂😂

Yes. I have no intention of being in a relationship again in my life. I suppose if an absolutely perfect person fell into my
lap then I would consider it, but they would need to be happy to never live together, to just spend time together a few time a month and be willing to give me space when I need it. Which isn’t likely and that is 100% ok, I love my independence, I like solitude, I like being able to just do things spontaneously without considering another persons wants and needs.

I am single, although I am happy I secretly want my ex back, but I know its not going to happen! So yeah, happy to be single forever! (Sort of)
