I had the mindset of not getting involved in any relationship since I was younger until I got to a stage where I knew I was buoyant enough to do so. I kept this promise to myself and I stuck to it, and more, so I wanted to enjoy my single life because it's fun knowing you have no responsibility to care about anyone aside yourself. Likewise, I wake up in the morning just to catch the breath of the day and see nature in a different form. This is all I have ever envisaged, but unfortunately for me, I broke this rule during my university period, and then things went in another way for me.
There is a difference between liking someone and knowing that the person likes you back with the same energy that you are giving to the person. But when it is now the reverse, the person who has been investing more in the relationship tends to be at risk of getting hurt whenever anything happens to that relationship. Just like I said before, I never wanted any relationship at all because getting a partner is something very difficult, not even with the kind of youth we have in this generation.
This generation is now becoming something I cannot relate to because a lot of things are changing. Things the older ones see as bad are the things the youth of this generation see as fun, but they act so differently compared to what they were supposed to be. Normally, the world is advancing and diverting in another way, but if we are also diverting with it, we should be careful of the way we are diverting.
So I started this so-called relationship with this lady, and it was a one-sided one, so I didn't get to discover it on time. Even with the red flags I was noticing, I decided to let everything slide and carried on until it began to disturb my mentality, and I had to pull out after some time of a fruitless relationship. Now I am back in my single zone and enjoying it to the fullest.
Now I understand what it means to be single and just enjoy all the good things about the single life. Trust me, there are some lovely things from which you will also benefit when you are in a relationship, but I really prefer not to dive into them for now so I can enjoy my life as a bachelor. I am not ready to rush into any relationship at this time, but I am sure one day I will eventually get married. But before then, I still have some time to enjoy my life as a bachelor, which is the most important thing to me at the moment. Enjoy every bit of your single life before getting married, and then you regret not having had the fun you were supposed to have had while you were still single.
