Several years ago, I decided that if I couldn't find someone who met my (reasonable) standards, I would stay single. I never thought that I needed a partner in order to be a complete person. Maybe it's because I'm an introvert who has a low entertainment threshold (easily amused). Maybe it's because I'm too stubborn to give up any significant part of who I am (or any of my friends) in order to please a partner.
