i wish I felt the same way as you did...

that is a pretty damn alpha mindset imo

I think the pressure to be “in a stable relationship” is unnecessary and unrelated to age. Plenty of people in their thirties, forties and so on feel the same way you do, from time to time. Are they odd? Maybe. But they live life on their terms, according to what they feel is right in that moment.

Stick with that then.. no one else sees a reason for a relationship with you either. it's the kind of thing you have to be willing to sacrifice for, and for a lot of people it just feels familiar and almost necessary.

I had your mindset until I found the right girl in my late 20s.

Just keep doing what you’re doing until you meet the right one, and you’ll know when you find her.

I would never recommend anyone get "married" until they are the best version of themselves. Until you reach that point you are not going to get the person you truly deserve. Keep building yourself up and don't burn any bridges with women who you may want to have a LTR with in the future. Eventually the time will come when you feel the need to have kids and part of you may look back on what you do now as some kind of waste. It is kind of nice to have someone around who has known you for a long time.. Conversely it is a huge pain in the ass to have someone around who likes to remind you of the worst times in your life and mistakes you have made. So definitely needs to be the right time and person to commit to. But you know what they say, misery loves company. Most people in less than great relationships have no problem telling others they should do the same thing. It's fucked up how people are

I'd never worry about the opinions of others.

If you're enjoying your life as is, then keep doing so. You don't have to make it a point to actively settle down and look for a partner unless that's what you desire. It's funny that people who aren't you always seem to think they know what you want. I used to get that all of the time, and finally just started telling people I was more then happy with how my life was etc and they eventually backed off.

As far as not seeing a reason, I mean there are plenty of reasons. While I'm pretty content with my life and the path I'm on now I still enjoy the very small intimate moments I share with a S/O. It comes from more of a place of want then need, however. I don't need someone else in my life to feel fulfilled but I do want to share things with someone.

Just do whatever makes you happy, and not everyone else and it will all eventually line up.

You gotta know yourself. If you don't need to you don't need to. Plain in simple. With that being said ill leave you with this: You don't know,what you don't know. Because you've really never experienced an intimate relationship, there's a whole world of feelings, and love, and bomb sex, thats not exposed to you.

All this long shit. It's a psychological program developed for raising kids.
