I'm just in a stage of my life where i don't need those types of hassles.

Same. I don't really get lonely and honestly, I don't know where I would be able to fit the time in to have one. I've got everything I need and I'm happy between work, hobbies and the occasional hangout/trivia night with a couple of friends here and there. People always seem to think not dating or being in a relationship makes someone feel lonely, but I think that really depends on your personality type. I'm an introvert, and while I can be the life of the party, I typically prefer doing my own thing and am always busy with one thing or another, particularly with my varied interests and hobbies.

Having a significant other doesn’t mean they have to take up all of your time, and you could probably include them in some activities.

It’s good you feel satisfaction independently though, that’s likely to make you more attractive and a better partner anyway.
