Topic: Can being single too long | |
---|---|
dont think there is such a thing as being too independent, either you are or you're not. JMO I dont have a problem sharing my life w/someone either; now as far as asking for help, that just makes us both "stubborn" Wouldn't we all! |

I'm trying to keep an open mind, but I am already finding myself not wanting to compromise or give up certain things just to be with someone.....

I'm trying to keep an open mind, but I am already finding myself not wanting to compromise or give up certain things just to be with someone..... See, that's exactly what I am talking about. It's almost as if I've gotten so used to being alone that if I meet someone where I have to do that, then I don't even want to bother trying. But it's hard to change my way of thinking since I've been thinking this way for so long! Isn't that horrible!?! |

I don't want to settle, but maybe I'll settle for being the crazy cat lady |

cause problems with starting or getting into a relationship? Could you be so used to it and set in your ways of being alone that it's difficult to "adjust" to their way of thinking and/or doing things different from you? Has it gotten to the point in your thinking that it's either "my way or the highway" and you aren't willing to change for anyone? For me, it's not really a matter of being set in my ways because despite being single more years than I have been attached, I am still pretty flexible. Rather, it is a question of whether or not I want to change my life once again, move and adapt. I have finally found a place that feels like home to me and I am happy with my life as it is, not sure I am willing to make the changes anymore. |

Has it gotten to the point in your thinking that it's either "my way or the highway" and you aren't willing to change for anyone? Yes, very much so. On the other hand, I've been single long enough that it's made me more likely to be empathetic to her needs when she does come along. When that happens, I believe I will be more appreciative of her presence when I find the right lady. Still, a lot of the time, it is quite difficult to even remotely picture what life would be like with a girl on my arm. Due to my inexperience, most of my knowledge on women is based on theory. There is a long road ahead. |

I agree that I find it hard to open up. But maybe it wouldnt be so hard if the right person came along. I guess we'll see when it/if it happens... I am very guarded with my feelings.
