Discussion Single people: Loneliness and gender/sexuality poll

[ThymeToLeave]

Loneliness bothers me a lot but I'd rather be alone, I hate people.

Mine isn't listed.

Sorry- as mentioned- these polls have a limited amount of lines to use (10 spaces). You could start a new poll that you feel better represents everyone.

I guess I was most curious as to how much people are affected by loneliness in this one. There seems to be this idea that more straight males are affected these days, (especially with all the incel threads,) so- I wanted to test that theory. Maybe it's true... straight males are in the lead. But- then- realistically, these polls aren't going to show a great deal- being that so few take part. Maybe there are more men on here etc etc. So- not the most accurate maybe but- interesting all the same.

Sorry you weren't represented though- I did apologise in the beginning too that I may not have been able to include eveyone... it wasn't an intentional slight...

I'm a bi woman (I put myself under gay- I understand there aren't enough lines for everyone and don't mind) and I definitely feel loneliness but it's not 24/7. Sometimes I'd rather just never interact with anyone ever again although it's probably overall more common for me to crave connection. Not necessarily a romantic relationship, just. I want to be close to people again even if I'm not sure that's possible. I'd like to date, but I'm too screwed up for that to be a good idea.

Needed to google those.

As to the OP - yes, my lack of hand-holding is the one thing pushing me to suicide.

It's funny how I say "hand-holding" on the Internet to emphasise the emotional aspect to the lewd people, whereas to my mom, I talk about "having sex" (in Little Russian) - precisely because IRL normies use euphemisms.

Although I cannot imagine myself doing either vanilla sex, or holding hands in public. Is there an AI-sexual moniker? That's the only thing giving me hope. But it's fucking pitiful.

P.S. (So apologies, considering it's after your reaction to my post.) If I lived in Germany, I could at least try escorts. Maybe it would give me enough inspiration to earn money or so. At least, I could form an informed opinion on the matter. The only thing my mom has been suggesting is "therapy".

Straight male, and being alone doesn't bother me. Quite the opposite, in fact—I've come to enjoy my solitude quite a bit. I've been in committed relationships before, and I'd be lying if I said that I don't sometimes miss aspects of being in a relationship, but it's not something that bothers me.

I'm also not particularly interested in finding a new partner these days. My last relationship was ended by my ex, so I didn't choose to be single again at that moment, but I like it now. Not opposed to the idea of another relationship at some point, but it's not something I'm seeking or even thinking about with any frequency. I'm using my time alone to work on myself, my life, and all of that.

I'm straight and female. I'm sad that I'm lonely sometimes and it's likely that I'll never have a partner in my life. I'm sexually frustrated to be honest.
