i have been thinking about this question for the past 2 days now...
i have been twice divorced, always wanting that happiness of togetherness with a family of my own... but it eludes me, leading to this self-cynical phase i am going through... a bitterness about my past relationships has ensued...
but on the flip side of that coin, i am much more relaxed than feeling like someone is always looking over my shoulder or always "checking up on me", causing undue stress for me...
i am an introvert, i love my peace and quite, my solitude that is my blessing...
i live by love, and i see love in places that i go... but to find love for myself, that has proven to be unachievable at this point thus far...

But I agree with Nicky I just don't want to give up sex.
likewise... the women where i am now living outnumber the men, at least 2:1...
and there are still the 'Closing Time Specials' you can pick up at your local bar...
mom and i have had this discussion before... she is pessimistic (very) about finding a love to take care of her... she is very cynical about men in her lifetime...
and i have told her that i can see love out there, i know it is there... just unobtainable for me, it seems... i just haven't grasped it yet...
there are pros and cons... but i love the freedom to do whatever, whenever, and with whoever...
so yea, alone ftw...
