Amusing as this thread has been...here's some advice from a long-term single-by-choice girl. Some people are okay alone. (That's me!) They don't suffer from a lot of loneliness or lack of sex. Everyone gets lonely sometimes (I often miss my great-grandmother terribly), but in general, I prefer aloneness. Here is a list of benefits I get by being alone:
(1) My house stays clean.
(2) I eat what I want when I want, dammit.
(3) I travel where I want when I want, dammit.
(4) I have more money because I'm not constantly pressured to be out and date.
(5) I appreciate and take care of my living space more. This is like (1), but having lived with others I know it can be difficult to live around someone else, especially if they're not a good fit.
I can keep going, but you get the point. I have friends that can't cope with being alone, for some reason. I don't care about the reason; I tell them what I'll tell you: if you're alone, go out and find some friends. Join a book club. Play a sport. Take up a card game hobby like bridge or whist or Scrabble. Find a community that interests you and that will embrace you. Just because I live alone doesn't mean I don't have--and value--friends.
As far as sexual considerations are concerned, someone else is more qualified to help you...I'm asexual.
Good luck, OP. It's normal to be lonely sometimes, but there's a whole world of people willing to be friendly if you're willing to reach out.7 -
It has been a long time since I was single, but it can't have changed that much. Actually, I love being alone and never had a need to have people or a person around. I take myself out to eat, to movies, out camping, and all kinds of fun stuff. And when i get that strange tingly feeling about myself a few times a day, I have me in very delightful ways. I certainly know what I like.
Anyway...I did a lot of sports when single so was always out and about, so keeping active made time pass and never really had that lonely feeling. Was having too much fun.

It's been a long time since I was single too. Seems like it's not much different than being married except I walk on a lot of eggshells now. If you like attempting to absorb calcium from eggshells through your feet, then get married. otherwise, just stay single.0

Actually, I think she's doing it wrong, but I can't tell her that or I'll be sleeping on eggshells too.3 -

it takes two, man. you're sticking around and allowing the tiptoe-eggshell-lifestyle to continue. It sounds awful. Hence, you're doing marriage wrong. Your partner is too, so you're not alone.4
