If you don't find love, so what?
So what?
On average you're gonna live for 75 to 80 years. That is a lot of time. Lets say you drew the short universal luck straw and you just won't meet your person. So what? Relationships are time consuming and tons of hard work. There are times where the person you love the most will cut you the deepest. There are times where you will be tested to your limit. There will be times where you feel the worst loss you've felt in your life. All because of them.
Meanwhile if you are single for the rest of your life, you have the entire world at your finger tips. You wanna drop everything and go backpack europe? Go ahead. No partner to tell you no. You wanna spend every free second you have playing video games, reading, working out, or whatever else. Go ahead, you don't have to dedicate that time to anyone.
Life is full of riches and treasures that make it complete. Good friends, good wine, and some good books are enough. I don't date, I saw the landscape, tried my hand at it, and realized it just wasn't for me. Now I'm 27, single, my sex drive is going away due to age so I'm not worried about that, I don't have to please anyone other than myself. My life is better. I craved love so much but when I accepted it's just not for me, my life improved 10 fold.
