Honestly, I'm just not interested in relationships right now...

I wanted to share something that's been on my mind lately. I've never been the type to actively seek out relationships or put myself out there. In fact, I've always been a bit turned off by how boys approach me. I've had guys hit on me in the past, but it always feels so forced and insincere. Like, they're not even trying to get to know me as a person. It's all just about physical attraction and surface-level conversations. As a result, I've started to distance myself from boys and relationships in general. I just don't see the point in investing my time and emotions into something that's probably going to end in disappointment. But here's the thing: sometimes, when I'm lying in bed at night or scrolling through social media, I feel this pang of loneliness. It's like, I know I'm choosing to be single and focus on myself, but it's hard not to wonder what it would be like to have someone to share my thoughts and feelings with. I guess what I'm trying to say is that being single isn't always easy, even when it's by choice. Sometimes it feels like the whole world is paired off and I'm just over here, flying solo. Has anyone else ever felt this way? How do you deal with feelings of loneliness when you're choosing to be single?

TL;DR - I'm choosing to be single, but sometimes I feel lonely. Anyone else feel this way?"
