[@brock_decoy70]

@@firingallcylinders2949 I know I’m very late to this conversation, but you couldn’t have said it any better. Not having a significant other in your life is perfectly acceptable whether by choice or not. I’m 24 and have never been in a relationship to this day, and I’ve never felt bad about it because there’s absolutely no reason to feel bad. Like you said, just live your life like you normally would. If you meet someone, good for you, but if you don’t, no big deal. It’s not worth being upset about being single when you can live your life to the fullest by doing whatever you want whenever you want, and people need to realize this. I personally think it’s extremely powerful to feel comfortable with being single, and I’m sure you would agree. No one should ever falsely assume a person’s sexuality or feel sorry for anyone who’s single if they are content with themselves and their lifestyle.
