The opportunity to form such connections may exist, but not everyone makes use of them, and depression and anxiety caused by loneliness is a prevalent phenomenon. But yes, like I said before, you can also rely on platonic relationships to live a fulfulling life, my point is again that most people don't benefit from avoiding romantic ones.
Again, not saying you have to get married. I'm discussing romantic relationships in general.
Not everyone develops or makes use of such connections.
I'm not sure what you're referring to here.
Yes, you can also rely on platonic relationships to not be miserable, but I think the vast majority of people would benefit from romantic relationships, so I think they shouldn't avoid them.
Well, different people have different kinds of dreams. If what you want to dedicate your life to is very demanding in terms of time, you could perhaps look for someone with similar values that don't require as much of a time commitment to the relationship. But I also think that if you choose to dedicate too much time to your passion project and not enough time to human relationships, that's likely to negatively affect your mental well-being in the long run. It's best to have balance in all things.
It actually does kinda become more difficult to spend as much time with friends when you get older. All of you have more responsibilities and a lot of people do choose to start families which consume a lot of time, and it becomes more difficult to schedule things. But anyway, again, I'm not saying you can't be single and stave off loneliness with platonic relationships, I just think there's generally no good reason to avoid romantic relationships.
Well, it's not my only solution, I do have friends, but marriage and children is very helpful in that regard.
romantic relationship is old tradition and old value. you have being brainwashed to believe only through marriage one can achieve true happiness. for someone that refuse to adopt old value of being strong, you sure hold strong on old value for this one.
when you said most people? you meant most people of western country bruh. latino, middle eastern and Asian have less probably because they live in community, unlike westerner. so stop making that a fact when it just you conjuncture that most people will be sad if not married. that just opinion, not a facts.
less time to spend with your friends when you got older because you spent it on your own family. that what happen. you spend it with someone else.
the facts is, when you got older, your child leaving you to live their own life, your partner might died before you, you too have no one to spent time. so what the difference. everyone get alone, even the married one. terrible excuses.
if you dedicated your project about humatarian, you have more connect to human, not away from human duh. study show that married man suffer more burn out than single man. not the other way around. if you job is stuck in the office then you have that problems. the human existence is based on what their value on the one they love. romantic relationship only one of the way they feel valued of their entire existence.lots of human need others validation to feel happy, that why they seek relationship so they can feel appreciated. just like a child wanted their parent to validate their success, as we grow up, we have a feeling of needing someone else to validate our existence. it happen on women more than men. that why women are more likely seeking attention and validation than men. for men, can be better option as they value results than people validation. that why it easy to make man happy in marriage rather than woman. man can be happy alone when he manage to fix a car, but woman need someone tell her that she did a good job. so if you a man, you likely suffer less of being single, or even better, more happy. men that love their craft and passion less likely to suffer mental break down of lacking human relations. their relationship is with their craft and passion. people today become weak mentally because they being babies since baby. unlike the olden days. old people have tougher mentality than current men and women. just like body that you need to expose to pain to make you tolerant, mental need that too. those day, kids get shouted, whipped for disobey their parents, make stupid mistake,.so when they grow up, they resist the harshness of the world. people today too weak, both physical and mentally.
physical training is can be quite pain, but if your mind are strong, you keep going. so it not just body get strong, your mental too, to not give up. people give up too early when suffer few hardship and pain, no wonder lots of mental issues arise. LGBTQ+ is one of those disease, born out of weak mentally,. can't accept the reality what you were born and wanted to be something else. instead trying to accept yourself, you asking other to accept what you want become when you are not. Gay, Lesbian, Bi is orientation, i have no problem with that, that is matter of taste. like foods. during industrial revolution, kids were mining coal, but they seldomly have mental issues, health issues did they have thou. kids today goes to school,.play and travel, less hardship but have mental issues.
so its not loneliness, of need to married,.is weakness that need to be fix. there are japanese soldier that keep staying in jungle on Philippines island more than 20 years, alone. he didn't suicide or have mental health. the facts is he live to his old age in japan and die peacefully. alone, in jungle with nothing to do. we got everything to do to keep mind focused instead of feeling emptiness and alone. so even alone man can survive, obviously they can be happy alone in modern civilization with full of technology and support.
this age, people benefits more of no being married, less money to taking care of children, that why there lots of pair that choose childless marriage. being alone is more beneficial with our current world way of life. its so hard to get lonely today than before modern technology.
not to mention, its lots harder today to find a woman with less than 1 body count. that why western men going Asia looking for traditional woman. you said western country is better but western man were running away from it just to have healthy marriage. that means they rather choose to live less safe area just to have better woman. that's why its not worth. there have more single mother in western country that the east.
if you live on western county, with advance infrastructure, it better going single. east a bit unsafe but better for romantic relationship. so it west that suffer more for being married, while it east that suffer more for being single. because western people didn't have family/community pressure to get married. so even they single, no one have complain and you don't feel left out. while in east, everyone live as community, in close knit family. if you are 25 and still not married,. everyone will start asking you what the problem with you. so there is more logic to be feel left out and lonely because of the environment.
but you live in the west, that is less a problem so, being single is better option.
