I don't agree Pellaz. there is a lot of joy to be found that has nothing to do with having a partner, or a new iPhone either one. Going swimming in the river, going for a walk, or even a drive in the woods, helping a friends or, just making them smile. A good book, staying in bed til noon just because you want to. If you're single you go where you want and do what you want at your own pace, you aren't hurrying or waiting for anyone. And that's only a few of them.
I'd rather die alone. Then no one I might care about will have to pay for the funeral or deal with what's left of my life. I've got who gets what set in my will, with the stipulation that cash and investments be used to pay any remaining bills and, if my body is found, it goes to science, or any other free disposal method available. (I have plans to minimize the chance of being found, but that assumes I see the end coming and have a few hours I can still function left when I do.)
Again, no, unless you mean they get more because I bust my tail and do it for them. Not that I mind, that's who I am and what I do, I enjoy taking care of others but, for sheer personal advancement on any front, I'm going to get it done faster if I'm single and can pour all of my resources, time and energy into me.
I can fix things and, I can fix me. I can even tell you how to fix you but, only you can fix you. I learned that a long time ago, and, if I end up with someone that refuses to make any effort, they can GTFO of my life. I'll get mad and depressed and run the gamut of emotions for a week or two, then I'll get off my pity party, untangle the knots and fix me, then get on with making me better. Always room for improvements on some level of out lives.
