Everyone tells you that you have to get married or you're "going to end up alone."

Here's the harsh truth. You can be married and still feel alone. The idea that marriage cures loneliness is ridiculous.

Loneliness isn't a feeling caused by a lack of proximate bodies, but rather a sense of unfulfilled needs and desires, and a lack of connection or communication.

To be honest, you're better off investing in forging friendships with guys. But ultimately, even friends won't be complete proof against loneliness. Fulfilment comes from the inside.
