I feel very satisfied with my position, at the moment and I'm really grateful things are going well. But sometimes I feel like it wouldn't be so bad to have a partner or a companion. I stopped talking to my best friend a year ago - we went our separate ways. So it's just me and my loved ones which is great but then why do people settle down or embrace a relationship?? Family is incomprehensibly wonderful and ultimately irreplaceable but I think a companion would be great.

At the same time, I feel guilty because it's like there's a person in my head telling me "are your loved ones not good enough?"

They certainly are ''good enough'' but is it okay to want a partner?? IT'S so confusing because I know the answer is ''yes'' but what does this say?? Do I really need a partner??

I get along alright without one but it's very lonely at times. It'd be nice to share life with someone else; someone kind, caring, compassionate and thoughtful. Give my family a little break, lol.
