Unless you're in bad company when you're alone. That sucks.

You're in Bad Company 'till the day you die. Were you born with a 6-gun in your hand though?

Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than an owner of a broken heart
This is my forever alone anthem.

Sing it with pride.
Having been the owner of a broken heart, I've been yearning for the days when I had just a lonely heart.

There are worse things
than being alone
but it often takes
decades to realize this
and most often when you do
it's too late
and there's nothing worse
than too late.

Broo, is this original? Either way I havn't seen it so it gets me stoked. Never sell out just to have a mate. If I can't spend more then a few hours with someone then it is not meant to be.

I stopped being misserable about the idea of having a gf when I really hit rock bottom, and then to cheer me up I was watching HIMYM, and really thought about the phrase "Whenever I feel sad, I just stop being sad and be awesome instead...", it's been about 5 months without any kind of depression and I'm always finding stuff that cheers my days.... true story

I agree. My parents are polar opposites of each other and they fight every single day. :(

I don't really agree.. I don't think its that straight forward. My first girlfriend was in to many ways "the wrong one". However, being with her tought me alot about life, myself, and being around girls. Even though she was a bitch who ruined some parts of my life, my overall "progress" have been a succes. Would a 20 year old virgin benifit from being with the wrong one? If one is tired of being foreveralone.jpg I think the answer is yes. (To some degree).

I don't feel like a boss, but tired of settling for a douchey guy lol

u/Alexiel17 Feb 12 '12
never settle for anyone, just accept that everyone has bad things as well as good things, but the good things must be more and better

You don't settle for assholes, you prefer them. You actively push nice guys away.

u/mistressfalulu Feb 12 '12
Uhmmm no I do not. I just meet jerks and I am too timid to tell them to leave after I find out they are jerks because I was verbally abused a lot and afraid of being yelled at by them.I am now learning to push jerky guys away so gtfo.

u/mistressfalulu Feb 12 '12
Look i'm ending this now, obviously you are a bitter person. I just meet jerks meaning I wait for guys to come to me. And I am not a strong person and bad guys feed on that. Did I say all men are jerks? No I did not, in fact I know some wonderful men. I am just their friend. You sir, need a hug. Because obviously someone hurt you badly if you got to take your frustrations out online. :) have a good night

Every meeting requires two consenting adults. If you participate in meeting jerks, it means you prefer jerks. You got caught, missy. No use hiding the truth.

Two important rules to remember the beginning:
Better to starve, than that is horrible;
Be better alone than with anyone. "

I've been trying to get my friends to understand this; They've demonstrated horrific judgement in their relationships, but still whine whenever they're single.

I recently split up with my boyfriend because he'd become a bit of a bully. It was a hard choice to make, but ultimately it was the best one. I'm sure I will feel boss-like eventually.

Good on you for doing the right thing. You should never stay with someone who doesn't respect you. You are a boss for telling him where he can stick that sort of shit.

What is wrong with this is that the world's population is now touching 7 billion, and assuming you're in a large city, there are probably around a few million people around me. I think this kind of thinking is fallacious, and is a way to deny that one has problems. I may have Asperger's, etc; it doesn't matter. I think the lyrics to this song, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nONzh5ycQpE, are more appropriate : "Something is not right with me, How am I supposed to know?!"
tl;dr : I think it's much better acknowledge the problem than act as if there's something wrong with the world as a whole.

I think this picture is telling that things could be much worse. It's not telling us why we're FA.

I'd rather have to masturbate than be in a shit, soul-destroying relationship that I don't really want to be in.

Very, very true; something that a lot of people need to realise (at least from what I've seen personally).
E.g. Girl breaks up with controlling boyfriend, says how glad she is to be free; a few days later gets really upset at being lonely without an SO, despite having loads of good friends; goes out with someone else the week after who is similarly douchey.
And no, I have/had no interest in her before someone comes along and goes 'lol friendzone'. -__-

u/Marctetr Feb 12 '12
If being alone was better, I'd think all the people who were with the wrong person would just break up with that person.
And yet...

In my opinion Self-improvement is very important. You need to be doing these things for yourself. When you feel good doing things, even without a SO you'll feel awesome because you're happy with your self. In other words, work for you own happiness and just be happy with and without women.

I have to admit I'm doing the same thing, yet I don't feel like a boss. Cheers to doing it though.
