After this long , the best and worst times in my life she has been there. We have seen everything each other has good and bad. There nothing we can't do or get through together. I will never be single again, statistically I will die before her. |
Such a beautiful thought... until the end, I guess that's how life is lol.
Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive
Single.
I would like to have someone to be with for the rest of my life sooner rather than later though, I mean I am 28 now, but I am the first to admit that I miss a couple genes in that department. I usually don't like people a whole lot. I mean I could be friendly with others, but I hardly ever "like" anyone. Slight problem.
Anyway I don't mean "for the rest of my life" in the marriage-terms really, I don't care about that. Almost everyone that's closest to me has been devorced, except my grandparents, so it kind of seems like a waste of time and money to me to get married. What's really the point, in my experience it only 'jinxes' it. But I digres, if I meet someone that absolutely wants to I'll probably be swayed anyway.

I'm single by choice. My last relationship was 6.5 years and the one before that 3 years. I'm enjoying the single life. No committment, so much freedom, and an assortment of ass. Makes me question why I ever thought relationships were a good idea in the firt place.

Ah these are all short term thrills that will end eventually. Once your friends start getting married with Kids etc and have little to no time for you anymore you will be wanting to spend your time with someone.
It sounds like you just spent the years above with the wrong people. If I spent nearly 10 years in two relationships that ended in failure like you did, I would want the what you have aobve too!
I'm married. I'd say happily, but the missus is currently hogging my PC playing Sleeping Dogs >_
I've been dating the guy for about 10 months now and only good days ahead, he's the best thing that's ever happened to me 
Married with three children.
First child: very difficult and stressful.
Second child: Easier at first, but then the terrible twos and tyrannical threes struck home a lot harder than the first.
Third child: Very very easy in comparison . But I think it is more because my life is more accommodating of that, I am very comfortable with quick planning, and have much more energy. Also, my wife stays at home now, which makes it much easier for us to have preparations for free time to do stuff.
But yeah, marriage is not a big change. The big change was when kids come along, free time usage changes a lot. It becomes much about going to events where other kids are around. Less about going out all night with drinking, and more about going to the zoo and parks and stuff.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Damn man, why?
Is easier than ever to start dating nowadays.
Considering I am asexual and a-romantic I am single. Now in the past and in the future. So I probably do all women a favor by remaining single since I am not able to have a comitted relationship in the first place.
Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
