HONEST QUESTION: Are You Comfortable With Getting Old & Dying Alone?

[Bossino]

I'm curious, it's probably been asked before and I realized midway through high school, I'm fine without a SO or children and if I can't get it on my terms it's simply not happening. Given the discourse on dating/relationships on this site, I wanna see where people stand as well as their reasoning. Imma tag a few of the stronger/well articulated opinions on the site that I can think of off the top of my head, and invite y'all to do the same. THIS AIN'T A DEBATE, WRONG/RIGHT, just gaining perspective on each other

“Born Alone Die Alone”

 

[MaxPain]

We gon all die alone regardless.

Ima breed atleast once regardless.

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Nope. I got an uncle that's in his early 60s with no children and I wonder about him sometimes

When my granddad (his dad) got old and in his twilight years, he had children around that looked in on him. He had people in his life. Children, grandchildren that loved him

I'm not saying that's the reason why you should start a family but I'm saying it's a benefit.

Plus I would hate to leave this world without leaving a legacy behind.

No.

I’m getting a wife and kids.

Parents, siblings, friends are cool, but there is nothing like your own home family. If people are viewing marriage from a negative perspective, that will affect who you end up with. Nobody said marriage is easy, but plenty of people get through it happily, or at least contently.

And I don’t believe in babies out of wedlock, and I want my children raised in a two parent household.

 

[King]

Yeah I’d be cool with it, as long as I ain’t suffering

I agree with this, and hold the same viewpoint, but I also am realizing there are very few women who will love me for just me, AKA my personality, mindset alone. Without other couplings (finances, build, etc.), being a base level most will jump ship, and I'm not comfortable with committing to that at all. Meeting a girl and taking her serious after I'm making 70K+, debt-free, in even better shape, is going to be a hard ask it not impossible but mad improbable. She'd have to toss a no hitter so to speak.

Alone: It's the only way to die.

I know I know, I mean in the sense of entering old age, then eventually dying without a spouse/kids

 

[Kairi Irving]

Wait until the idiots that are afraid to die alone realize they will die alone, it's inevitable.

 

[GrindtooFilthy]

Yes. You came into this world alone, you should be prepared to exit this world alone.

when you meet your maker or whatever good you believe in be prepared to have your actions accounted for alone

right now most are alone and only have our thoughts and actions

From the place you came from, unto to thee shall you return.

 

[MikelArteta]

Nothing is guaranteed. Folks acting like you’re guaranteed to live till 60,70,80 etc

Have your life in order and when it happens it happens.

I feel this and as corny as it sounds if there are things I have to withhold from my girl whhhhhhhaaaaaats the point? If I can't be me that I am alone in my room with a woman, then I don't need nor want one. Just fwb and rosters till I reach the horizon

 

[Sandy_Cheeks]

Most women die alone anyway, so it’s to be expected since we live longer. I’m cool with it. I want to spend my last years having the most peace possible.

 

[ScottyG]

I never understood that expression, cause it don't translate literally.

Your born into ya momma's arms and some nikkas have twins so they literally not born alone

Dying alone usually makes sense, but even then sometimes there's family all around.
