Current Events > So are any of you single men too busy?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like, I have a great job. I just dont have time for a relationship. I dont care. Ive been married, divorced, and Ive had all the sex I needed till 5 years ago. Now Im more job focused. Like, it feels like Im too busy for anything, much less a relationship.

Like, being single is fine. I just dont have time for it, or to finish my gaming backlog growing up sucks. Like when I was a kid, I could juggle school, relationships, games, and other hobbies

I'm not too busy, I'm just happy being single.

No, that's not why I'm single. I'm single because apparently its too difficult to keep schedules. I made plans with one woman yesterday, texted her to confirm at 4, and got no response. That's why I'm single. Because its too fucking difficult to be a good person and just say that you aren't interested.

I can't even be arsed to talk to the matches I have on dating apps.

Like I want to have a girlfriend who likes the same things I do so we can do everything together and grow old together.

But I just don't have the energy or will to chase women after work. When I'm on my days off, I just want all the time to myself.

I dunno. Sometimes I feel like I'm waiting to die. Like just anticipating it, not like tapping my watch waiting for it to happen.

Every year something gets worse. Things improving or getting better are just preludes to disappointment and dissatisfaction. My self esteem drops, feeling of love is the most debased, cliche form of it (unconditonal love from parents I've lived with for way too long), and a feeling that I'll literally never be able to self-actualize my life because to a certain degree I have no potential because I have no career or life drive. I'm just grabbing at the dust, the imprint memories, and the cobwebs of Public School when my life wasn't so empty.

Like, Im not trying to be depressing or anything like that. Its not like I dont want it or anything. Its like yeah I have crushes but I dont have time. I dont know if it sucks or if its a blessing.

i use being extremely busy - which i am - as an excuse for emotional unavailability

It was indeed a pretty accurate description

English was one of my most frustrating subjects. I had to have a talk with my 7th grade English teacher for having a near breakdown during a "creative writing" free day. I also fucking hated how much of a stickler he was for the 5 paragraph structure. He would always mark me down for being too brief or terse in my Essay writing. Even other English teachers would do that sometimes.
