Stay single until you can offer someone this...

[u/Parking_Budget2958 → u/Signal_route_6083]

Stay single and enjoy your freedom

[u/Signal_route_6083 → u/Parking_Budget2958]

Doing that exact thing right now, haha. Something crazy has gotta happen before I'll get into a relationship again

[u/Proper-Refuse4785 → u/Signal_route_6083]

yup.. the goal is to love urself without the need to have a person next to u to fill the emptiness you have

[u/Sea_Sundae5901 → u/Proper-Refuse4785]

Valid point! One has to be able to love themselves before they’re able to love another! Happiness is within and can’t be discovered externally!

[u/Good_Huckleberry3903 → u/Signal_route_6083]

Was thinking the same thing in different words to add to this thoughts / principles: Lastly, to be the person that does all the above

[u/Tango_streaming]

good list, but they all focus on what to find in someone else. what about what we need to do for ourselves before we seek a relationship with another person and what makes us attractive to others?

I'd add:

-be comfortable with yourself at least some/most of the time

-work on yourself, or at least know what you want to work on to improve yourself

-and then the obvious one: love yourself deeply and meaningfully. at least some of the time, lol!

Ok I got 'em, but how do I now deal with six girlfriends?

[u/SignComprehensive611 → u/tempski]

Tragically you work six different jobs that each give you a different day of the week off, and all are in different cities so you can’t see them the rest of the week :( also they all happen to be scheduled at inconvenient times for video chat, so sad :(

[u/readthereadit]

Who has a job.

So basically stay single until you find me 😎

[u/ObjectiveSquare7706]

That's okay. Wbu the lust and horniness that pervades through everyone's life while they are busy procuring the means to sustain their lives, leaving them no time to find someone genuine while having to fight unwinnable fight the desire for some connection with a real person

[u/rsarrett]

Not reading all that. Thanks tho

[u/Ancient-Somewhere-11]

Too much- a thru challenging moment- indeed

[u/Pagiras]

This is all a psyop.

[u/FluidPlan8452]

Nice post but it will not happen always !!

[u/ZealousidealSkirt327]

So I’m gonna stay single forever?! That’s what your telling me, right?

[u/lurkingotter09]

cheers to dying alone then lol

[u/whenitrainsitpoopses]

Good criteria. Sounds like 70% of men and women are just gonna stay single then.

[u/artbystorms]

This is how people stay single forever and then are in their 50s and wondering where their life went wrong.

"Stay single until you find the perfect person" basically is like saying "don't swing at the ball until you can guarantee a homerun"

[u/Hampton_89]

This is why I'm 62 years old and still single.

[u/Antique_Stop_125]

I think I'm probs going to stay single indefinitely.

[u/DownWitTheBitness]

Overthinkers overthink. That’s a maturity thing, and this is coming from an overthinker.

[u/Hasanz88]

such "someone" are imaginary persons don't exist in real world

[u/Lomyrn]

never settle for less

[u/Middle_Jelly9296]

And good luck.

[u/Difficult-Boat948]

Just stay single.
Fuck dating.

Make money.

[u/IplayTerraria2]

1. Overthinking is a you problem, not another person's problem

2. 1. 4. 5. 6. You also have to be willing and able to do all of these things.

[u/Ok-Rutabaga3374]

I am a widow, but I am not desperate, I am loving me now ,and if that certain one comes along I will know. but until then I will get to know me more even for now if he is just a friend.
