Jumping in another relationship?

I have been alone for 4 years, and I like it, like it, and like it. I like the solitude of it, I like how I do not need to compromise, I like not dealing with petty fight.

But,

Amidst this happiness, lately, I feel my body is raising a white flag to the sorrow of this loneliness. I start getting angry more easily, being more asshole, just to cover myself from this sorrow. And yesterday, I found myself staring at this couple for more than 1 minute in an envious manner. Thus, I do not know if I am just a pretentious loner, and do I need to be in a relationship?

But,

I was deeply scarred by my previous relationship. I was with a horrible woman who is selfish and manipulative. So, the idea of being in a relationship still scares me.

Just petty, petty, petty. Ain’t I?
