Current Events > I don't think I can get married or be in a relationship anymore

(+) Yeah! (+)

This isnt what you think it is. Im not married and I have no desire to be married. Im not in a relationship either and I also currently am not trying, or have a desire, to get into one. This can obviously change in the future.

Im currently at work training someone and Im definitely an Introvert. The longer I spend with this person, the more tired and frustrated I become. Ive been reading more and more on the subject to educate myself. This also is making me more self aware of my energy levels and the like. Im realizing that I need a crazy amount of alone time to recharge and my battery drains quick. Im like one of those older iPhones that had a shit battery that ended up dying fast and taking a while to charge.

Like I said, I currently have no interest in being in a relationship but if I did want to be in one, I dont think I can pull it off. I would have to be alone a very long time everyday and that probably wont work out.

Its weird. Its currently not a significant problem for me but it might be a major problem if I develop a desire to be in a relationship

You're just more compatible with a low maintenance person.

Find someone else who needs a lot of alone time to recharge.

Chill in separate rooms 80% of the time if need be.

I am surprised that people actually responded to this.

The problem is that if I decide to look for someone, finding someone like me will probably be very difficult. I mean, people like that arent putting themselves out there most likely

So, what I am getting at is that you're calling yourself rather introverted then? If so, that doesn't necessarily mean you can't get into a relationship, but it definitely is going to be harder for you to find someone who shares your same sentiment because they're likely to put themselves out there available. It's a never ending problem, but it just means you just have to put in more effort.

I figured as much. I guess that will happen whenever I decide I want to put the effort in to get into a relationship

you could probably find what you really want, it would take some effort and trial and error though and maybe you don't have the energy for it now. nbd

Yeah, I feel like there's few personalities that I'm compatible with and even if I found this woman how do I know she's not going to change her personality in the marriage? This is why marriage is dumb and a waste of time lol.
