Do you have an unexplainable aversion to settling down?!
Question: I don't have a problem settling down; it's just a matter of the right guy coming along. I did try and settle before, but they were guys I need not settle with, turns out. Never married, but have co-habit before. And it matters not what anyone says, there is a difference between the two. There is more to marriage than a piece of paper.
As for people saying relationships don't work, it's not relationships ITSELF that can't work; it's people themselves NOT wanting to make them work. Some people out their do do their end and make excellent partners, but you also have lots of people out their refusing to take responsibilities for what they do wrong, and so much power struggling these days. No one seems to believe in 50/50 anymore. People want to take but don't want to give. Etc.
I'd love to have a long-term relationship, preferably marriage with someone, but at this day and age, it takes something huge to get me down the aisle. Like, there has to be enough compatibility, and have a strong friendship, and be on same page with me about how to deal with romance, and what to do once we live together, if we get that far.

yes i do!
Nope, I am happy about the thought of "settling" down with the one I love.
No. But I seem to have settled down alone.
no
nope I have allready done that
I sort of do now. Didn't used to. Maybe I'm missing something.
Absolutely. I think its engrained somewhere in a man's DNA.
Yes!
the word is inexplicable. And yes. I like change, when I initiate it that is. I'm not a fan of surprises however. Like floods. Or car wrecks.
No, but my Ex did.
No. Being a base brat, we moved every two years. Nothing more I wanted than to be able to make some long term friends.
That didn't work out too well. Sigh.
And I still get the itch every now and then.
I thought I did. But now I'm getting used to the idea again.
Just got a divorce after 31 years, I do not want to settle down again unless a guy REALLY sweeps me off my feet,..... fary tales, maybe......................................
Basically relationships suck 99.9% of the time.
That's my lame a$$ excuse.
I have a very explainable aversion...........too many things to do, places to go, people to see.
Yes, I totally can't explain it. But I worry about it and want it at the same time. I am not worried so much about my own thoughts and feelings but more about the fact that you never really know how that other person will react even after 20 years. Will my husband one day come home and say it's over?
No, I don't have an unexplainable aversion.
I can explain it. However, I am strongly resistant to settling down, and I'm 29 and childless still.
There is still so much to see and learn, and I haven't slept with enough women to settle down.
Can you seriously expect to sleep with the same woman forever While she gets fat and starts to slowly hate you and increase her stockpile of granny pants?
Get out there!!!!
Yes, I couldn't imagine waking up next to the same tool bag for the rest of my life and kids are very creepy and annoying.
not ready dude i feel i need to travel the world for 10 years first
No, I have an unexplainable (to everyone else, but explainable to me) aversion to leaving here.
No I don't, but I think that I am the exception.
I think that monogamy is a learned trait, not an inherited one in human beings.
Our natural desire it to "spread the seed around" and mate with various partners. I am not here to say that it is right or wrong. For myself, I like being with only one person and building a relationship, and learning everything that I can about that person.
Oh he!! NO!!!!!
LOL
O M G !!!!! How did you know? 47, never been married. Moved, honestly, more times than I can even begin to think. Why settle down when there is such adventure and so much in life to experience? I'm nearing the age where I'm starting to think settling down a bit might not be so bad... who knows.
no, the problem is the world hasn't stopped spinning yet, lol
Yes my freedom.
