I would like a girlfriend, but do I really?
I spent the entire day being at home yesterday. Not having to go anywhere or see anyone was extremely relaxing and liberating. I only came out of my room to make food, do my laundry and play with and walk the dog. The rest of that time? I was in front of my PC – I am addicted to it see, but then you already know that. 
I wonder now that I’m so comfortable going about things at my own speed, and on my own schedule that will I adapt to it, if and when someone new comes into my life? I don’t need my life to be completely full because I actually love these moments of having absolutely nothing to do and nothing to think about.
When you ask me what I’m thinking and I say “nothing”, it’s true. “Nothing” to me is actually something. To replace that nothingness would mean that the special someone, whomever it may be would really have to be special indeed.
So I had an epiphany: that I am alright being alone, not a hermit mind you but single. I’m down with it. I guess that makes me a “quirky alone“. Now quit trying to match make me.

let’s say, pple need other pple in diff stage of life.
maybe now being alone is great. perhaps the next min, u wanna a companion. maybe the next, you wish u never have any!
humans are greedy
i’ve to agree with you, sometimes having your own time to do your own things or lazing around is GREAT!
no need to report to people is also GREAT!
it’s kinda great that i still manage to enjoy some of the above mentioned!
spinnee: well I choose to think that we are always in a flux as to what we want.
Leonard: yeah man! It’s like down time for the brain. Almost as good as sleeping. Heh.
I used to think the same as you when I was single (that I enjoy doing my own thing so much, I didn’t know if I could make time for someone else). but you know what, just because you meet someone and get a gf/bf doesn’t mean you still can’t do your own thing. providing she is not controlling/possessive (and you wouldn’t want someone like that anyway) you can still totally have days to yourself, doing your own thing. your life doesn’t have to completely and totally revolve around that person. I have a bf, and heaps of friends but i still LOVE having a day all to myself to do absolutely nothing!
and yeah, I agree that friends shouldn’t try to set you up, I hate that! if you meet someone, you meet someone, if you don’t, you don’t. but don’t force the issue.
enjoy life, enjoy being single, if someone comes along, great, but if they don’t, whatever!
girlstar7: once again I would like to say … Exactly! You understand me so well it’s scary.
funny, a friend and i were just talking bout this the other day. we’re so used to being single (at the moment) and we wondered if it was time to be back on the dating bit with the bf, would we remember how? hmmmm.
You see, if you have a girlfriend, you could say wholeeeeee day in your room and get her to bring food to your bed, does the laundry for you. She can even walk the dog while you play with yourself. I mean… play… computer games!
piffles: I hear you. We are so used to doing what we want, whenever we want to.
Hijackqueen: wah that’d be an ideal fantasy loh! Heheh.
That’s when you know you’re in love – you are willing to share your space with someone else and willing to ‘make space’ for her. Even then, your own personal space is still important – and if she loves you,she would understand that sometimes you just want to stone alone and it’s got nothing to do with her big bum or her cooking.
sourrain: true true. But your last sentence about her understanding that it’s not about her big bum etc., heheh … sometimes it’s not quite like that.
