No One will be Single Forever
High standards? Unavailable crushes? Either way, it’s on you.
We all know that one person who dramatically declares, "I’m going to be single forever!" as if the universe has personally cursed them with an eternal lack of romance. But let’s be real: that’s simply not true. It is physically impossible to be single forever unless you actively choose to be.
The truth is, if you're desperate enough, you will find a way to be in a relationship. You’ll lower your standards, expand your options, or settle for the next person who gives you attention. Love is not some rare, mystical force that only blesses a select few—it’s something anyone can find if they truly want it. So, if you’re still single, well… that’s on you.
Now, before you get defensive, let’s break it down. Most people who claim eternal singledom fall into one of two categories:
The High Standards Club: When Perfection is the Problem
These are the people who won’t settle for anything less than the perfect partner. They want someone who is:
- Devastatingly attractive
- Insanely rich
- Emotionally available and perfect in every way
- Basically the protagonist of a rom-com
But here’s the hard truth: perfection doesn’t exist. If you set impossible standards, of course you’ll be single longer. That’s not fate; that’s a choice. You can hold out for someone who meets every requirement on your list, but don’t act surprised when that person never appears.
Standards are important, but if they’re so high that no human can realistically meet them, you’re setting yourself up for perpetual singledom. The universe isn’t keeping you single—you are.
The Unrequited Love Crew: Torturing Yourself Over Someone Who Doesn’t Want You
This group is made up of people who have a crush on someone who doesn’t like them back. Maybe that person is already in a relationship, or maybe they’ve just made it clear they don’t feel the same way. But instead of moving on, these people sit around, waiting for a miracle.
Let’s be real: who asked you to fall for someone unavailable? That’s not destiny keeping you single—that’s you choosing to pine over a lost cause.
If you’re holding onto someone who clearly isn’t interested, you’re not doomed to be single. You’re just actively wasting your time. The sooner you let go of that dead-end crush, the sooner you can find someone who actually wants to be with you.
The Truth About Desperation: If You Really Wanted a Relationship, You’d Have One
People who genuinely want to be in a relationship will do whatever it takes to make it happen. They’ll:
- Expand their dating pool
- Give people a chance instead of waiting for “the one”
- Work on themselves to be a better partner
- Open their heart to new possibilities
Humans are wired for connection. Unless you’re actively pushing people away, it’s nearly impossible to be alone forever. If you’re single, it’s not because you’re unlucky—it’s because you haven’t done what it takes to change that.
But First: Love Yourself Before You Love Someone Else
That being said, jumping into a relationship just for the sake of not being single isn’t the answer either. If you don’t love yourself, no relationship will magically fix that. Self-love is the foundation of any healthy partnership. If you don’t respect yourself, set boundaries, or know what you want in life, you’ll struggle in a relationship no matter who you end up with.
Instead of complaining about being single, take this time to build yourself up. Learn to enjoy your own company. Work on your confidence, your goals, and your overall well-being. When you’re happy alone, you’ll naturally attract better relationships.
Final Thoughts: Own Your Love Life
At the end of the day, no one is actually doomed to be single forever unless they choose to be. If you’re still alone, it’s not because of fate, bad luck, or some grand conspiracy—it’s because of your own choices.
So, stop whining about it. If you really want love, go after it. If not, own your decision to be single and enjoy it. Either way, the power is in your hands.
