No shade at people with kids or in a loving relationship with people, but I just can't imagine waking up to the same people day after day, the same person in my bed.

Single, I love living alone. Technically have the dogs, but they're basically people without the trouble people inherently bring.
I do miss pets. My landlord doesn't allow them, but I'd love to have a cat or a mellow dog.
I have roommates and while it's nice having that contact and living with people to an extent, I think I might like living alone at some point.
Been wearing the ball & chain for 26 years now. We have 1 child who is no longer a child. 1 dog and 1 cat. Both strays from the street that I came across.

Alone =/= lonely, a point many people ignore.
Yea, had to share this house with my brother and his girlfreind, needless to say it was a nightmare.
As soon as they got the boot, and just the dogs, their superiority became apparent.
I dont know why, but I hear the same line of argument from so many 'alone' women. Why do you search for excuses?!
I am alone because I am not popular on Tinder.
Not excuses, just facts.
I see my family--my mom and dad, sister and brother in law, niece and nephew--just about every weekend; I also have my aunt and uncle and cousins in the area as well. I'm playing in two D and D groups so I get to hang out with friends a lot. I work in a really cool job with some great people I am lucky enough to call friends in addition to coworkers. I enjoy chatting up strangers if they initiate. If I want to just hang out I can go to the living room and watch a movie with my roomies.
I don't think that sounds very lonely, but maybe that's just me. I was just never sold on the whole American Dream of buying a house and breeding. World doesn't need more people in debt birthing more people to put in debt.
Married with no children (no maternal instincts whatsoever). Our cat is basically our child..
Just had 10 year wedding anniversary. In November we will have been together for 25 years..!! Our relationship is fantastic he's my husband and my best friend, we are soul mates.

The american dream is to buy a house and breed? sounds like a nightmare. Why dont you drop all that network of family trouble? I stopped talking to all my family members and I am so happy about it.

Fair enough, but a lot of people who are single and not happy try to rationalize it (not saying this is you). I'm single right now and not especially upset about it, but I think that's because I have no social life and don't know any women I'm super interested in. I bet if I did go out more and met people I'd really like to be in a relationship with I probably wouldn't be so content being single.
