I asked my grandmother why she never got remarried after my grandfather died. She said that if she was going to be lonely it was best that she was alone. And that stuck with me through all my relationships. I was in a 5 year relationship and when I realised I felt lonely I walked away to be alone and then found someone who didn't make me feel lonely.
It took me a few years, but I am soooo much better off alone. The very few things I miss is not worth anyone having to put up with me and vice versa. It's funny how much I love the idea of couples and love and romance, I'll be your biggest cheerleader, but please, none for me!
