People who have been single for a long time, how long has it been and what did you learn from it?
I’ve been single for about 8 years now, which I know is longer than most people expect and I guess I’m firmly on team single at this point.
Over that time I’ve actually learned a lot about myself, and not just what I want in a relationship, but what I want in life in general. I’ve gotten in the best shape of my life, focused on personal goals, and built a life that I’m genuinely happy with.
At the same time, I’d be lying if I said it didn’t sometimes feel a little odd being single this long, especially when it seems like most people around me are in relationships. I also sometimes wonder if people see being single that long as a red flag, even if the time was spent working on myself and building a good life.
So I’m curious about others who have gone through long stretches of being single:
How long has it been for you?
What did that time teach you about yourself?
Did it change what you look for in relationships or life in general?
I’m interested to hear people’s experiences.
