The One

[Neo Emolga]

I have yet to find "The One."

I honestly think it won't ever happen as the idea of marriage just outright scares me. Most of the people I know that got married just seem so unhappy and divorce makes things so many times worse. I don't think it's worth the risk. I see what some people go through and it really does seem like there's way more safety, happiness, and freedom in just remaining single.

I'm definitely not one for taking the initiative to ask a girl on a date either. I'm petrified of getting an insulting response or something along the lines of them already being in a relationship. I have heard cases of people being stood up or taken advantage of to get a free dinner squeezed out of them. Or even worse, find out later that they're cheating on someone else.

To me, the world of dating just seems like a dirty, unpleasant, and unhappy one with many disappointments and broken hearts. I'll take my slice of loneliness over that.

To be honest with you, I completely agree. I'd be fine if I was single for the remainder of my life. From what I've experienced, it's simply just not worth it. I've got enough self-love, love from my family, and love from my friends. I'll be alright.
