I'm a loner. Pretty simple. I don't know if I could have a serious relationship/commitment, but then there's times I think it would be nice to have somebody. Then I keep going back to the point where I like not having to accommodate anybody and like my downtime. Anyone else in the same situation?

What you need then, is someone like yourself, someone who enjoys the downtime without making a big fuss about it and generate pressure. Someone to be lazy with.

Have you ever been in a relationship before?

I enjoy being by myself now. But that's mostly because I'm old and I've been living alone for going on eighteen years now.

Yes I've been in relationships. Haven't been in one for two years now though and it's getting to the point where I don't even know where to begin anymore. I'm too settled in my own ways.

Yes, I agree with you.

This.
Sometimes hubs and I don't say much to each other for days. Off in our own rooms doing our own things, only coming together to eat dinner and watch some TV in the evening for a couple hours. Of course we do things together and snuggle and laugh and there are times where we're nearly inseparable too, but....we're quiet people who both like to hang at home and know how to give each other the large amounts of alone time/space we both need.

Just needed a few words added in and you have how my girlfriend and I have been for the last two years.

Am I about due for the "marriage pressures" from people to start popping up? I am only twenty-two and have been getting a few blips on my radar already.

Crap...I think I answered my own question...

At OP, just gotta find the right kind of girl for your personality. http://themotivationalposters.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/twisted-prycho-btches-motivational-poster-461.jpg Oh I am bad...I even found one with typos!!!

Just look for personality first then looks and all the rest and you should be fine.

I agree with the others, you just need to find someone to be lazy with.

Could it be you're making excuses for not wanting to go through the effort of putting yourself out there in the dating pool and possibly having end up like your last? Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I'm very fickle, so I get in to relationships where I'm really happy and then I wake up one day and my attitude to them has changed. I've messed a few girls around unintentionally because of this.

I like being with someone, but I can also be hard work. I do like being alone quite a lot.

I'm currently in a relationship where I have to be out and be with her a lot- I must say I used to also like being alone at home and stuff, but she's actually changed me to where I'd rather be out with her.

Sometimes, all you need is a little change; Try leaving your comfort zone sometime and find a nice girl, you might look at things differently

I wouldn't call myself a loaner, I just like pleanty of space.
Albino I think was right about personality though have you ever considered taking a myer-brigg personality indicator thing?

Other than that dating isn't a big deal just take it slow, getting out there is the first step to actually having somebody and you'll never know if somebody is worth being in a relationship if you don't get out there and get to know them.

I think I can relate

EDIT: Oh, I can relate more than I thought: I've also been without relationship for two years or so. Continuing, it seems that when opportunity arives, even opportunities that I've been working towards, I somehow manage to say or do something to give the impression that I'm not interested, and then it usually ends there. Not something I quite understand...

I don't like being a loner at all.

I can somewhat see where you're coming from OP. I'm not so much a loner as I am insecure with social interactions. I'm very fluent and verbose with a keyboard, but on the phone or in reality, talking for me is like a game of chess, I have to plan what I say so it doesnt sound jumbled or unintelligable. I haven't been in a proper relationship for two years now. I've tried dating again twice, but the first attempt I lost interest, and the second attempt I just wasnt over my ex of two years and slipped up with the new GF. But since I'm going into the Navy soon, I'm hoping it'll help me be more learned with social interactions and getting along with people.
