Someone for everyone?

I have always been fascinated to hear people saying that there is someone for you. Only on Tuesday, a fellow site member told me "Danny, that special someone is out there somewhere just dying to meet you and be yours forever". Yet, I simply don't believe a word. When I told them this, the reply was: "Don't be so pessimistic! There is someone out there for everyone." I don't believe them. The question: is there really someone for everyone, or are some of us truly destined to grow old alone?
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

Ahhh that just reminds me how single im feeling right now........
However it doesn't happen by magic. You're not going to bump into a girl on the street who suddenly decides that she wants to spend the rest of her life with you. It takes a shit-load of work.
And yes, some of people die lonely. But it's pointless to worry about it now. I mean you've got a bijillion years to meet people. If you were 706 and didn't have someone then you could start to worry about dying alone.
There are probably quite a lot of people you could be in a moderately decent relationship with, and maybe a few that you could really love.
Theres a difference between 'perfect' and 'perfect for me'. The latter one is possible.
Too true. Unfortunately, often those who are perfect for you don't share your feelings.
Yeah i think i agree with you.
I think, or i like to think that there is that someone out there for everyone, but i think some people don't always meet the person they should be with.
I used to think that there was nobody, that'd I'd be found dead and half-eaten by an Alsatian. And, you know, that isn't true- you just have to be patient, and genuinely listen to the hints that come your way. And, crucially, have the confidence to act on them; love doesn't spring out straight away, it starts off small.
There is somebody for everyone, they just have to stop being so preoccupied with themselves to see it.
Circumstances dictate what is ideal, and circumstances dictate if things work out or not.
I met GWST in the very bottom of depression, there was no hope, no point, but if I hadn't been there I'd have never met her, never needed her, never fallen in love with her.
Me think so too, in terms of settling down, having kids, etc
it all depends who you run into.
I met a guy today who getting married in December, he was on holiday form the UK in India and met and American girl on holiday, they'e going back to India to get married and then moving to the USA.
I'm sure if she never went on holiday he'd have married someone else and so would she!!
I have thought that everyone has a few special people especially for them and that when they find them its bliss... but has that ever happened to anyone here? i mean i know a few of us are in relationships but has anyone felt like they are 'meant to be' with that one specific person?
Lol your not a Dawsons Creek fan are you?
But basically I belive that there are loads of people out there for you - its just that you both have to want and belive that the relationship will work.
But also you have to be patient - my boyfriend fancied me since I was 13 and we didn't start going out till I was 22 - so I wouldn't give up hope just yet. Most of my friends didnt' have proper boyfriends till they were 19 or 20 - one till she was 25.

HEY! Don't insult my Alsatian puppy! He's a big softie at heart, you know. Just look at the attachment below if you don't believe me. Anyway, these are all good points, people.
Yes, that is a puppy. He was 10 months old when that picture was taken. He is now 14 months. Dogs officially remain as puppies until 18 months. That said, Max's size does mean people think he is much older.
Nice dog.
That went right over your head, didn't it?
Never mind:p
You have to be optimistic, it's healthy
