I’m convinced most people in long-term relationships are actually miserable.




You've convinced yourself... It's a nice rationalization for people that can't find a partner.


I live a very frugal lifestyle, much like the Amish do. Most people that know me, know me as Mr. Tightwad. I just don't go to a fancy restaurant and spent $10 for a meal. I would rather go for a ride on my 4 wheeler on my wooded acres. Also I am not much of a church going man. To me nature is God. I hate the TV.

I am located where there is a lot of elderly people, and just about on a daily basis I spent a few hours helping somebody with whatever their problem may be. I know a lot of elderly people who are not well of financially. There is a lot of financial stress out there, which to me is the main cause of relationship stress. I do a lot of bartering with these people. I don't know what it is but most of these people are rich in junk and poor on cash. I grow a lot of winter greens that I barter for junk. I take the junk to an auction house or scrap metal place and sell it. I sell or trade a pickup load of winter greens on a weekly basis, and a few pickup loads of stuff (junk) every week. Ever notice how some people let their place go because they just can't do the upkeep any more. I am kind of a cheap handi-man. Every week I haul a few loads of metal related junk to the scrap man. The truth is most of these people have let themselves go. I don't have any cats or dogs in the house, but most of them do. One of the worst mistake I ever made was cleaning the animal poop out of a house and then go into a store on my way home.



That's awesome? I guess? I wonder what the hell does it have to do with your previous statement about being "convinced most people in long-term relationships are actually miserable."

Stay focused.

Most of these people are married or in a long term relationship who to me live a miserable lifestyle because of insufficient income. There is little happiness or so called bliss in their lives. If only they could become more self sufficient.

You have no clue about relationships, do you? Don't bother answering. Sorry I disturbed your world.

Don't take things too serious. This not the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal.

Single people can live together and do.

I prefer being in a relationship as long as it’s with the right person.


Me too... I'm okay with being single but I don't necessarily like it and would prefer to be in a relationship

Becoming more self sufficient can be something you do within or without a relationship. It isn’t going to make you miserable just because you’re in a relationship. Having the resources of two people is better than one and so is having two peoples ideas.

I used to always joke that I wanted a rich man with a heart condition who scares easily.

Now I have a poor man with a heart condition that I don’t dare scare. laugh
