Ok, i get all that love shit. Been there, done it..... But i mean... Do we really need men? For what?! I just listen to all this weeping, and sorrow.... I don't get it anymore...
Hah! Do we really need men ... ? I've got a better question. Do we men really need women? NO. But they're all cute an awesomelike, so that it's a pleasure to have them around. =) The desperateness isn't welcome on either end though.
As a man who's 30 and has a number of failed relationships that have created a lot of heart ache in me and also knowing that I've caused heart ache in others, I still feel a need to find that life long partnership where we grow and compliment one another. I'm secure enough in myself to be happy being single, but know that deep down I desire a partnership. I'm not desperate, but I do have desires
Its that feeling of being, and completeness that you can only get from the "special someone", whether it be man or woman. Sure, relationships fail, it happens to the best of us. But if you just keep faith and hope alive, then you will find the one that won't fail. He/she is out there somewhere. I know so many people say it, and its cliche, but I think its true. Yes, all of my relationships so far have failed, and I STILL want someone. I want that feeling, I need that feeling. Its a certain feeling that nothing else in this world can give you, and I just can't imagine a life without it. No, I'm not going to go "search" for someone, but I am going to keep the hope alive that one day I'll find her, and I'll have that feeling, and it won't go away.
This whole thing got me wondering.... Every few months i see my friends crazy in love.... A bit after i see them heartbroken... Sure makes me wonder... Just wanted to hear your taughts ....
Yeah, like when im single and my mates are finding theyre "true love" for that period of time i can't help feeling that tad bit lonely.. then I start thinking "shit, what's wrong with me? Am I ugly? Are my teeth crooked? IS MY NOSE LOP-SIDED????" Thoughts of an insecure person.. it doesnt make sence though, i;m not insecure, im very sure of myself.. But no matter what having that guy tell me im worth alot to him, makes me really happy.. i guess same goes for everyone.. we all miss that tingly sensation in the pit of our stomachs.
Good one Billie. I agree and at the moment, I couldn't give a rats arse about being with someone or not. I am lucky enough to enjoy where I am and what I've got for the time being but I am only too familiar with those times when I am absolutely craving affection. Worst is when you're in the midle of nowhere and you start missing companionship. I had it once when I was coming through the Great Sandy Desert. Sometimes even touching yourself makes you feel sad.
Ok, i have another one: i can't drink when i'm single fos some time..... Every time it hits me and i become really deppressed... I hate it when i can't get really drunk....
It is called sex, and it makes the world go round. But seriously, most humans are social creatures and we don't like to be alone. I will take a bit of heartache for that lovey feeling.
oh man... i can even count how many times that has happened to me, drinking in excess and then going into an emo downward spiral, seeing couples doing all their coupley shit... i want to go up to them and pour beer all over them and tell them to get hit by a cement truck... but then again, i do suffer from depression as well, it just really hits me when im innebreated. to answer the topic question... its because we are all looking for that other half, even if we don't know what to look for, and we are desperate for that feeling and companionship of the opposite sex. its just instinct, as well if you think about it. we are mammals, wanting to reproduce, but we are also complex mammals that have higher-level feelings such as love (not saying that animals don't have that, but its an opinion) and therefore we are trying to fufill that need. thats all.
I think for many people (including myself) the desperation comes from insecurity. Speaking for myself, I find that on days when I feel very well and confident that I have no strong desire for a significant other, whereas when I'm blue (like I usually am) I have a very deep longing. Paradoxically, it is usually the bold confidence that attracts partners and the insecurity & inferiority complexes that usually pushes them away.
Away with men! No, not all the way away; I want to keep my friends! But yeah, I plan on staying single for qutie a while... I don't want to be in a relationship.
