Is it possible for a person to live out their whole lives single (without spouse or bf/gf) and be happy?

Yes it is possible.\n\nHappiness is not something you need to recieve from someone else..true happiness comes from within ourselves.\n\nSharing that happiness and much more with  another person is a choice but not a necessity.

i think so ... you only live once ... at the right time, in the right place, and as long as you aren't hurting anyone.\n\nit can be quite uplifting to experience the desires that set the mind and/or body afire. expecially the sexual ones.

There is nothing in the universe to make a human being 100 percent happy and satisfy.We pretend to be happy and satisfied.Thats why we hope & dream ,we work, we try our best ,we look forward for more love,more money ,more comforts.If once you achive everything in your life then you'll find no meaning no lead your life.The only thing you require to make or become happy and satisfied in married life is heartful love - we know love conquires everything.And the secondary things are sacrifice and adjustment.If your question points to physical matters then you should know that physically a man or woman can attract his / her partner at best one year.Thanks

I have to agree with Y Stroke 28. I think its a blast to be single, going out with girlfriends, partying, and just having a really good time. However, I think it does get a little old, and eventually you want that person to come home to, or like y stroke 28 said, just having that companionship of knowing someone really cares about you. I on one hand would like to get married, and eventually have children someday, so I really do not want to stay single for too long. I love to be single, but it does get old to me. But I don't think being single is a bad thing...I just like to know that I have someone to care about and share things with...and cuddling!\nGood Question!

you can so have fun WITH a girlfriend.... having a bf or gf is so much MORE fun than being single

Yes. I've heard it said that it is easy to live life according  on peoples terms when you're constantly surrounded by people, and it's easy to live by your own terms in solitute, but it is  the great man who, in a crowd, finds the sweetness of solitude. I take that as saying, You be who you truly are through and through, regardless of where you are and who you're around, nonetheless what the situation is. I'd suppose if you really took the time to go off by yourself and find the meanings within your soul of all of life's reasonings on existance and what you're to do here, then yes I'd think in solitude a person could become very great. But life is about balance, and nothing balanced happens instantaneously. It's always gradual. So I supposed if you gradually took time out of your day to do something in solitude your life would, gradually, become more serene peaceful and all around more satisfying. Great Question.

You can not make yourself happy alone unless you love to be alone.  If you love to be alone, you will find ways to be happy.

When it is meant to happen it will. I never thought I would find anyone. When I stopped looking and decided that I didn't need a man to be happy. That is when I met him. I was a single mom of 3 in my late 20's when it happened. GOOD LUCK!!

While its nice to have someone else, its not the most important thing in the world. I know that girls are raised to expect to have some guy marry them and take care of all of their problems. The truth is that you are the only one who can make you happy. That being said, you may have to kiss some frogs before you find a prince. There are telephone chat lines that lonely singles can go to in order to meet other people. There are some decent people, like you, who just want to meet someone to love them on the phone chat line. There are some folks just looking for fun on it too. You should get on it and start figuring out who is who. Its generally free for women. Some newspapers have singles classified ads. You could try those too, but the same rules that apply to the phone chat applies to those as well.

Yes, it could be possible but are you willing to live that way throught out your life?  If you ask me, I prefer to live as human being. To be able to live, to care for each other. \nThere is nothing wrong if we die one day, its because we are HUMAN BEINGS.

what an option.\n\nI guess your wealth is independent on whether you are married or not.\n\nIf you stay single, you can date and have "fun" with alot of people. Some might be deep and good relationships, others may be superficial and wacko. You might have a baby or two - who knows, and you'll be dependent on your surroundings; family or friends to babysit if you want to keep up your happy life.\n\nIf you marry, (for love that is) you can work on a relationship. You can deepen your feelings for each other and this will maybe make you more happy on a long term - who knows. If you have babies, it or they will be borned in a family and this makes a more secure structure if one of parents for instance die or ... something.

Yes, but just like happy in a relationship it requires you to do work.\nYou have to build a life that is happy for you.\nBy the way, really good relationships happen only between people who know how to make themselves happy first, then include the second person because it enhances their happy space.

this is going to do you some good. i was in the same situation about a year ago i always leaned on my gf and it was a good experince i had to learn to depend on myself cause your signifiacnt other might not always be there. and you need to be happy with yourself and depend on yourself. and be independent and do things for yourself.  then you will truely be happy and find the right guy for you. not one you need to be happy. you should be happy if you have a guy or not

You don't have to love anyone, or be in a relationship. There's no point hooking up with someone just because you're single. Be choosy, I am and I'm much happier than the people I know who bounce from guy to guy. Be your own person, you don't need anyone else till you see what you want.

no.\n\nno.\n\nand ~ you're the one in control of making yourself happy.  either you are or you aren't.  maybe a spouse is the deal for you.  maybe it's having kids.  maybe not.  blaze your own trail...

Of course not.  It is your life and there are times when it is easier and best if you are single and able to focus on other things than relationships.

Being single has its own blessings.  It also comes with curses.  Same with marriage.  People aren't really meant to be alone, but sometimes it's better.  I know for a fact it's better to be single than be with the wrong one.  If you find the right one, well. . .that would be a major blessing.  \n\nYes, you should be content being single.  If you struggle against it you could end up in a horrid relationship.  Just be patient and content.
