Is a life without a significant other a lonely existence, or does it become less important as time goes by?

If I don't pay any attention, it doesn't really bother me. When I'm put in a situation where everyone has a SO, then it kind of gets to me. But I try not to let it bother me that much.

In my opinion, there's no point to life without someone to share it with.

Life is what you make of it. you take the good you bad and there you have the facts of life. when the world never seems to be living up to dreams...

Being single can be lonely but happiness comes from within.

Yeah I am lonely .. But i have my daughters to enjoy time with. It has been 2 years since my seperation, and during those 2 years i have found many things to do to improve on my myself and my life. To have someone to spend time with other than my daughters would be great. Someday..

Is a life without a significant other a lonely existence, or does it become less important as time goes by? I think it's an issue for me mainly because I'm accustomed to always having someone around. It's really only been the last few years -- since mostly everyone I know has gotten married and started a family -- that I no longer have the same level of access to single people. On the other hand, I historically find myself wanting nothing more than to be OUT of relationships after a few months -- so maybe I'm better off just not bothering anymore.

It really depends on your goal in life. If you're preoccupied with something you're passionate enough about, I don't think there'll be time to regret not having someone to love.

i can get by just fine on my own... as long as i have my friends and family... but it would be lonely when i look around, and my friends are getting married and having families... and i'm still alone...

solitary confinement is the worst kind of torture in prison

Having been alone more often than not in my life, it doesn't really occur to me very much anymore. Sure, at times it does, but it passes. I'm comfortable with myself. I don't mind my own company (even if I WANTED to tell myself to go away, I couldn't). If it happens, fine. If it doesn't, I'm no worse off than I am now, but I see little point in chasing ghosts.

I'm definitely not lonely all the time. Once in a while, sure, but that's normal. I choose to actually enjoy life, rather than waiting around for someone to be with.
